First of all, a year and trim model would be helpful. However, general questions like that aren't going to get you much help. I'd suggest reading through this thread https://honda-tech.com/zerothread/2168311 , this is the FAQ thread, their is a lot of good info in their to get you started. Personally, I'd start with the suspension and brakes first, the lude can be a very fun car to drive for very cheap if you pick the right mods. Good luck with the build.

 

his car seems faster cuz its lighter! But on the freeway it's no match for the h22!

 

it is a 99

 

1000 wont get your far.

 

pro headers and throttle body

 

what are pro headers?

1000 wont even get you a custom header.

 

Save that money for when you decide to BOOST IT YO. You will need that to sleeve your block so you can get some forged pistons. Just put it in the bank and keep saving dude.

 

i recommend saving for a QUALITY turbo kit, or try piecing one together, but when you boost an h-series engine the power is amazing and well worth the wait. oh and when u got the turbo on there, GET A TUNE! but if youre not looking in to turboing then i'd get some good springs (Tein), wheels+tires, and brakes. it will help a lot! good luck with your build!

 

for 1000 bucks, VAFC and some No2. Sounds good for 1000 bucks

 

why does his seem faster? did u get a ride in his car or did u get to drive his car instead. everytime your a passenger, it always seems faster haha.

 

custum lovefab header.

is any header worth that much money though???? I mean maybe 12 hp?????

 

when you are looking for NA power, money cant be any issue. Buy what you know works.

 

what is a vafc thks

 

i have seen kits for around 5 to 600 $ after marlet exhaust and headers r first on the list though what do you think

 

take it to track then u will see if his faster, but save some money cuz one grand in nothing

 

$1,000 and $90,000... Get a timing belt, water pump, and manual tensioner conversion. Use any money left over for a new fuel filter, spart plugs, wires, and an air filter if you need it.

 

I can't believe no one(including myself) mentioned the 90000 mile service.
I believe we have our winner(Si Speed)
Now, tell him what he's won!!!!!!!!
