Default Where to start on building a car?

Hello there I'm a new member of Honda-Tech, I bought my first car a 93 EG hatchback(Automatic,haven't learned how to drive stick yet) I plan on putting money into it. I don't much about cars, so I'm not sure where to start. Anyone got any ideas? I'll post some pics soon

These threads are spring up like a disease. Pick any link in my sig to start with. You bought the wrong car. Automatic? Leave it stock.

Beat me to it haha.

If youre really dead set on starting a build, change that tranny. Id say thats a must, get a nice 92-95 si MANUAL tranny or 96-00 ex MANUAL tranny (I prefer ex). But reading the link is a must. Keep in mind budget and how much you want done before you start. This isnt exactly cheap...

You can say that again, and again and again.
Repetitious.
