What to mod first
Just got my 1995 import few days ago, needs a little tidying but other than that it's great Full leather, manual gearbox, nice.
So now what should I do first? Already has nice exhaust from Japan, and I have Lexus style rear lights on order, crystal clear side and bumper lights, and xenon bulbs. Did order clear side repeaters from POTN but the seem to be for a Civic and don't fit so will be sending back. Obviously wheels are on the agenda at some point.
But other than that, what else should I do? I mean any easy engine mods to increase performance? Any asphetic mods that I haven't considered that are a must buy?
Cheers!

Do it right the first second time!
Re: What to mod first (Sticky Tires)
First, put that on.
Is your car an f22, h23, h22? That would help.
Shocks/springs will help your launch a lot.
I/E/H will be nice for the h23 and h22 but wont do much for the f22
Nitrous is the best bang for the buck.
H22 has great potential.
Turbo has great potential but is expensive if you want to do it right.
Ditch the altezzas and keep your stock tails/corners and then get some JDM one piece headlights, and jdm amber fender lights.

WOW.. you are deep. Not too quick though...
And from your old british spelling of the word which still incorporates the latin dipthong, not too current either.

My engine is H22A, and yeah a cold air in take will be added soon.
The Lexus Altezza lights are very much the style over here! Am interested in seeing those JDM headlights though!

see, maybe we're all being too quick to judge. i definitely agree with the jdm headlight mod, cleans up the front end a lot. but thats only if youve got money to waste. I enjoy doing mods that really upgrade functions of the car itself. think about suspension, a nice suspension setup, Tein..JIC, etc.

Re: (NatakuBlitz)
I don't see how living in a different country makes any difference. Rice was once considered and still is considered cool....
what's the difference??/ don't flame others that live here then...

Re: What to mod first (spanishlude)
If the guy likes what he has planned, then just let him be. He comes to honda-tech, like many of us, for knowledge, not to hear somebody elses idea of what is hot or cool. I don't care for "riced" cars either, but as long as they like it, that is all that matters. I just wish people would only respond when there is something important that needs to be said instead of always acting like they are the ****, and the person that is asking the question is an idiot. If you don't have anything important to say, keep your mouth shut.

I don't care what country your in, bad taste is bad taste. Clear tails are nasty period.
