thats almost exactly what I'm doing to my crx minus the cf hood
#1. Do the suspension FIRST. It is the #1 thing you can appreciate. Along with tires/wheels
#2. Forget the hood, seats, intake etc. Start saving for a vtec head swap, or complete swap.
#3. Once the cars running good, and the suspension is built, start focusing on the exterior of the car.

thats a good list. your car will look very good and even though its a auto with the single cam vtec will have a lot more power. i thought all girls could drive sticks

1- Go ahead, quality pieces though
2 - Why the hell not, remember you are in CA the land of the 10 second car; you put nice shiny things on it and 10 seconds later its gone
3 - See number 2.
4 - Comfort is worth a 1000 words
5 - You may have some wiring issues because of the Auto Transmission. Contact Rywire.com for that fun.
6 - Cop magnet
7 - Who doesn't?
8 - Nothing like restoring a faded beauty.

Wow, I want one person in here to tell me that if this post was not from a girl, you would have responded the same way.
Every day I come in this forum and see people bashing noobs who ask: "I just got a car, what should I do to it?"
But a girl asks it and you respond with numbered lists and suggestions?
Well done Honda-Tech, well done. Leg humpers unite!

still..... her BF could post this on his own. or, just explain to her what needs to be done. if he has all of the parts already, why is she posting a new thread?
my EX-GF used to do the same thing all the time..... ask my opinion about her car, and then go behind my back and ask strangers. **** pissed me off and shes gone now.

i say first drop it and get si rims so it can match your BF's car and mine too.. for the paintjob, you should get candy apple red for championship white since your BF doesnt like red or white cars..

put in some nawz!!!!
a good nitrous set up will give you what you want. economy and reliability of the d series, and the punch of a well tuned nitrous shot.
if you go with giggle gas, don't cut corners!!
