Not sure where to start. whats the best firts mod??

 

first

 

driving school, track days, and auto x.......... then go from there...

 

and yes.. track days and auto x is a mod... cause it's making you a better driver... therefor making your S that much better....

 

first mod....a couple track days then i got 4.77 FD

 

First mod on ours was just recent...a nice Redline performance oil change...free! Helps to have friends at advanced auto parts, and guys that change the oil for you so they can take pictures of the car in front of their store for advertisements sake...

First mod should be a new set or rims with some nice sticky tires.

Second Mod...

I bought a new set of rims and had the first "authentic Cwest kit" ordered back in 2000.
I agree new wheels should be the first thing. Then I went suspension..

 

exhaust

This is the only way you'll know what you want to improve. Otherwise, throwing parts at it could actually lead to losing horsepower and mishandling characteristics rather than actually making an improvement on the car itself. While sometimes you think you feel a difference with the butt-o-meter, you probably aren't feeling much at all. Drive the car for a while, save your dollars for replacement tires in 8-12K miles and get some autocrossing experience behind the wheel of the S before you decide what to do. It is cheap, causes little wear on the car, and you'll benefit greatly by learning to become a better driver.

 

What do you want? you want to go fast or look good. I put I.H.E on mine after week 2. Come month 4 or 5 I had to put a new motor in it. Then on month 7-8 a turbo and a new motor 2 weeks after that. Month 10-11 I put the 3rd motor in and a bigger turbo. Month 12-13 new motor and bigger turbo. I hape this one stays in one pice

undocumented: If they were yellow, they add 35hp.

 

First will probably an OEM lip to cover up the scratches I made on the front bumper. Second mod will probably be a hard top.

Track days/autox aren't a part of the "mod list" for me. That's just a given and considered "stock" for any car I get.

yes.. i also need to get a lip to cover up those scratches.... damn honda cheeps out on paint. hahaha..

 

Honda does cheap out on the paint since I found odd scratches and chips elsewhere. The front bumper was my fault though. I didn't realize the front of the car was that long till I bumped into those parking concrete barriers.
