New... need some help
Hi everyone, I am new to Honda mods so I thought I would try to ask some people that know. I have a 03 civic lx with an automatic trans, I know, should have gotten the stick but I origanaly bought it for my wife. But now I am driving it and would like to give it some help.
First off it rolls to much when changing lanes and going around curves at high speed. I would like to know the best way to flatten it out, when the tires are due for replacement, I plan on putting on 15" wheels and lower profile tires, but the roll I am experianceing is in the suspension. I would like some input on some decent but economical suspension parts that would help out.. ie sway bars, strut bars, springs.
I would also like comments on performance, although I know that this isn't the forum for it. I have looked for parts but havn't had much luck with the a/t. I am not interested in a cat back system, I would like a full exaust, with a hedder. As far as I can tell the cat is integrated with the exaust manifold
. Also there seems to be no cold air intake for the a/t. I am not opposed to putting on a nitrus kit for just a little boost, 30-60 hp. But I would like to know what the stock engine would handle and what mods I need to make for it.
My budjet before nitrus is about $1500.
Any input would be much apreciated.

good shocks are Koni, KYB, Tokiko... (they are all damping adjustable)
Good springs are eibach, tein, h&r, neuspeed... or you can get coilovers which you can adjust the height of the car.
for brand new shocks, Konis are around $500 KYBs are aroud $300 Tokikos are around $400
brand new springs are around $200
There are MANY treads about what kind of shocks/springs to get, so use the search, and you should find a lot. hope that helped a little even though im not an "Expert"
