browse the forums man, there's a million different things you could do with that much money. i'd start with a new motor, tranny, and auto-to-manual changeover, you're never going to get anywhere with the engine you have and i think a CVT transmission (correct me if i'm wrong, people).

you're thread is probably going to get locked, so hopefully i gave you a little bit of guidance before that happens.

If you have that much money to spend, why didn't you get a different car?

You know, it's one thing to gradually drop money into a car, like most of us do.

But when you have a car and you're ready to drop $15,000 into it AT ONCE, it just seems way worse.

I seriously hope you're kidding...if not, I wish I was your mechanic/tuner

I've said it before and I'll say it again: for that money get a 99 Camaro Z28. or better yet, put the money to good use

If you have 15,000 dollars to spend, buy another car. with 21k you could get a C5 hardtop vette. Sell your honda, take the cash and buy a better car.

First, read the forum guidlines.

Then invest it. And I mean invest, not waste twice what the cars worth to make it halfway fun to drive.
