Uhm... Super tight suspension and all???

Yeah... OK.

Prolly some decent axles, a quaife diff, slicks, 3 inch exhaust, fuel mods, turbo cams, then just build a sleeved block from there if you can afford the super tight suspension!

dropping your car all of the way to the ground doesnt help you at all. you need a decent weight distribution.... if you have coilovers, raise the rear up and give it some rake. thats it youre really worried about 2/10 of a second @ the track... it not... dont mess with it.

slicks
LSD
more b00st!

And what is that to you? Since you already dropped it you killed the "sleeper" look.

If you want the sleeper look beat the **** out of your car. Seriously, take a bat to it and have fun. That way it looks like a piece of ****. Sleeper

No, you're a joke. Help the kid out instead of trying to boost your post count with arrogant posts.


On topic:
Only way to go faster is to build the motor or boost it. If it were me, i'd save up some money and buy a Greddy turbo kit (even a used one if you are on a budget). It's a good beginners kit and you'll be much faster. However, you might want to do some research and learn the basics on how a turbo works, etc. Search around here.. There's ALL the information you need on this site. If you can think of a question, it's probably been answered before. Search is your friend.

Good luck.

Oh, just wondering: what type of suspension do you have? Hope it's not cut springs

a person with this setup wouldnt be asking this question, so i take it you probably didnt build this car, either had someone do everything for you or just bought it like this

but for an answer um you can always get the jdm recaro seat cell phone holders

Oh dear. Only two days into the new year and the left overs from 04 are shifting to 05.

You should try boosting or building the motor you have. What motor do you have anyways?

you could try some V-TECH stickers he he

Also if your turbod, theres this magical thing called a wastegate, disconnect the vacuum/boost line going to it and you'll be waaaaaay faster.

j/k

Tune that hondata and up the boost a bit this is the cheapest best way to get power on a turbo car.

1.) build motor and turn up the boost (fun, reliable but not cheap)
2.) jack the boost up as is (fun, cheap but not reliable)
3.) leave it alone and learn to drive (cheap, reliable but not fun)

Those are your realistic options. If a turbo B18C1 Civic is too slow for you, you probably either suck at driving or don't have a clue as to what a "fast car" is.

hmm.... forum rules maybe.....?

lowered two inches is WAY noticeable. and to your original post, you lowered the car, not the body, lowering the body would be a body kit.

you obviously didn't build the car yourself or you would know what to do next. https://honda-tech.com/zerosearch that would help too.

you could turn up the boost, upgrade Intake mani, better tuning, bigger exhaust, high flow cat, bigger intercooler, whatever.

You have a turbo. Turn up the boost if you want to go faster.

Tune tune tune. Build the head and raise the boost a bit.
