Default Hi. I have a 1993 civic 4 door and i want to set it up right

Hi. I have a 1993 honda civic 4 door and i want to set it up right for road racing/autocross any pointers? my car is breathing alot better due to new custom exhaust, header, K&N CAI, and chip. I havent touched the suspension yet. since this is also my daily driver and im going to need to drive it to wyoming from washington state what would be a great setup for me? ((besides engine swap)) That will come after im done with school in Wyoming. (( im going to wyotech)) thanks guys

Goddammit, search! Yes, that little red "Search" link at the top right corner. This is the 5th time in the last week some noob has asked this question Read the FAQ while you're at it, that'll answer the other 98% of your questions.

Crazy ultra brief description because I'm so f'ing fed up with this crap:
-Daily drivers can't be optimized for roadracing or autocrossing. It's just not possible. This pertains to motors, suspensions, and brakes. You can't have a suspension that works well on track and is comfy on the street. You can't have brakes that are quiet, dust-free, cheap, grab hard when cold, and won't fade.

That's all you need to know. With that knowledge in hand, go search and find the answers for yourself. That's how the rest of of us did it over the years.

Searching very important.
Reading for hours... extremely important.
The data is there, you should read read read.
There are numerous posts on setting a car up, thousands of posts on
Koni, Moton, Tokiko, Ground Control with and without top hats...
Brakes, roll cages, bird cages , hamster cages...
Read read read. If you dont find it in this particular forum, look in the others by model and year. Chances are its already been asked.
Search search search. Read read read theres a plethora of set ups and not all of them are right for what you want to do.
ohh one more suggestion.. Google your question.. i bet it gives you some honda-tech page in a forum thats already been posted.
