Re: What to buy for $500? (rainforest)

True, i'm still under 200hp and probably dont need it, but only for so long

For those that dont know my car its a 91 CRX si w/ sencond gen JDM B16a. I have strutbars and the like, but my motor is basically stock. My intake headers and exhaust are all cheap, but i dont want to touch that right now. I'm planning FI in the future, and will build the exhaust accordingly at that time. I've also been thinking about swaybars....

And NO, i'm not getting it painted yet

Still gotta get me a door.

Re: What to buy for $500? (Tbone)

Thanks for the offer, but i already have a vafc, J's racing chip, and an ACT 6puck.

And yeah, i'm looking for go-fast stuff only.
About the seat, this is still a daily driver so i'm trying to keep it semi-comfortable. I do need a new one though. . .

Sorry, i want to sell it as a package.
Rio, if your looking for go fast stuff it's going to be stuff you will prob have to sell when you go turbo anyway. Just save the money for the turbo so you can do it right the first time
