Default 89 Honda Accord Help

Well basically I just got into this whole tuner deal from friends. They all drive american cars but I really like imports. They diss on my accord alot and I want to show them up. Im thinking about what to do what I do know where to start. I just put an exhaust on it not to long ago. I have some cash and was wondering what step you guys think I should take next. They were telling me to get “Bosch” Spark Plugs. I want to know the best spark plugs for my car or what you guys suggest. If you have any other ideas (cold air, oil filter, air filter, what type of oil I should buy, blah blah blah…) just tell me, I’m really looking to go far with this car. By the way, I have a 4 cylinder motor its stock. :-( thanks for the help guys.

EDIT: I'm also wondering how to paint my interior. Like shown here in red.....



Thanks for the help guys.

NGK = best spark plugs. a fella in the all motor forum was asking about the bosch ones last week, and they all said they suck. *shrug* they do seem to know their stuff.

if you're looking for performance, you gotta give us your budget and goals with the car, if you want any good help. i mean, if you just want a few horses, but an ebay intake and put a K&N filter on it, buy a header and downpipe. get a set of underdrive pulleys and a crank pulley. all that can gain you some power for not too much money.

we need more info from you if you want better help, though.

*oh, and please don't paint the interior. super ricey, IMO. though if you really want to do it, they have specialty paint in a variety of stores for just such things.*

Im not only painting the interior... hello no lol

Anyways im only 16 and i have a **** job but money is money.

Im getting like 160 this friday and i was wondering what i should do with that....

Also why dont they make cold air intakes for an 89 honda accord?? I cant find one...

Why wouldnt i be able to add a 90' cold air? Im just curious lol

I just want a really fast car good acceleration and etc....


What else do you suggest on buying ...?

So far

NGK Spark plugs
K&N air filter

Like i need things that add horse power... I was thinking about buying a chip off ebay..has anyone had any expirience with them? What else could add some horses. Since they dont make cold airs for my car i need a integ 90-93 cold air. What are your guys suggestions?
