What are some other minor cost effective things I could do to my civic for appearance or motor wise, I've just kinda run out of things that I really wanted to do..I just don't wanna get bored with it ya know...I can't afford to boost it right now, or afford to do major things.. Thanks

 

whats "cost effective" to you?

price range?

 

Shift ****, sparkplug cover, different head, short shifter, shifter bushing, oil cap, radiator cap, oil pan, etc... Usually these things are between $50-200.

Many cosmetic things can be changed out, but why not save up for those bigger things

I dunno, I guess about the range of 50-200 bucks..those are some good ideas..but like the things under the hood, not really concerned with those..the things you mentioned don't really improve performance..or do they? I don't really know much..But I mean, how many times do you really lift your hood to show people...I didn't know you get a short shift, I thought it was already pretty close to the lowest you can get ..isn't it like 12:1 or something??

 

Performance wise, no. But you question asked about appearance items.

A Comptech short shifter will reduce your throw by 20%. Adding a heavier shift **** will decrease shift times.

Oh yeah, you could add some honda-tech and FG stickers. Reduces weight of your car for 5hp. Just kidding.

 

LOL, i'm not that dumb about this stuff..haha..

 

I don't know about a heavier **** decreasing shift times--it does make it smoother yes, but its also harder to get moving. I tried a Skunk 2 **** (which is right around a pound) in my EF and it was definatley slower than the aluminum s2000 **** that I prefer.

That was some easy stuff to come up with at a minimal cost. Have you gone here http://www.kingmotorsports.com to see what additional items they have besides boring out your motor?

I meant to say with the combo, your shifting is much easier and throw is shorter.

 

NO offense taken, us Habanero guys have to stick together...

I'm here, I'm here. To the OP, you could also go with a Progress rear sway bar. About $150 and one of the best mods for the money. Also try a front underbrace.
