If you mean mods to the car in general, add a sway bar to get a nice cheap suspension improvement to compliment your engine.

i have my ZC cam in great condition sitting in my room if you wanna purchase it. i just swapped in a delta cam. the zc cam will make a bit of diffrence over what your running now.i speak from actual experience, ive ran 4 diffrent cams in the past year or so, b2 cam/zc/exospeed and now delta.

Sounds like your next step is 5spd conversion. There is no option for a sohc vtec ecu and obd-0. You really need to go 5spd.

could i run a dohc ecu? like a chiped PG7? or somthing?

i just found out i got next to nothiing left to live on so any mods will be a while.

how hard is it to put in a cam? like from personal experience. i doubt i have ever had the valve cover off

Workin a newer cam is definitely no big deal (and can be quite cheap), just make sure to have the timing set correctly once you get it all re-installed.

I did the D16A6 cam in my D15B2, and I went a step further. I purchased an old block and tore it down to OEM spec (about $400 invested over a 6 month period, penny by penny), and simply placed the new cam in the head while the head was removed.

If you want to do the cam while the head is still attacked to the block, make sure you have the main sprocket set at TDC before removing anything. Get the A6 cam and an adjustable cam gear. I believe the gear needs to be 1/2 degree retarded to work most effectively (it has been a while since I did it before, I would ask around before actually doing this). Place the cam with the gear attached onto the head at perfect alignment with the lower main sprocket to maintain TDC and so the valves wont strike any of the pistons. Torque it all down, replace the valve cover gasket, and start her up!!! You will notice a difference immediately, and you will be quite pleased with the new mod on the cheap, I know I was .
