It will looks awesome once lowered. You can find parts at the H-T Marketplace. I love that color!

 

I wouldn't worry about any more engine mods considering it's going to be wasted in the long run due to your automatic transmission. If you're planning on getting a manual + engine swap sometime in the future, save your money for that instead of engine mods.

But other than that, nice DB8. I'm not a huge fan of them, but yours looks pretty good.

 

Thanks by chance do you know what color it is I was thingin' it was Cypress Green Pearl but as I been lookin' around maybe its Teal..

 

So there no way to make it faster because its a auto?

I'm pretty sure it's CGP. Teal is much brighter and.. well, teal.

And no, in my opinion, it's a waste of money to buy performance parts for a a car with an automatic tranny. Now if you just saved up for a LS 5spd tranny and kept your current engine (LS engines are pretty decent for a DD), then I'd be all for more performance parts since you could actually use them with a 5spd tranny.

 

The only reason I got auto is because I cant drive stick I had another teg before and that was stick and it sat for 5 years..

Ain't it a DB7? I thought DB8's are only 4 door GSR's?

 

Yeah like everyone else has stated, I wouldn't waiste your money on getting performance parts with it being an auto. I would go with a good suspension setup, drop in a nice stereo, clean set of 15" or 16" rims, and call it a day for DD.

Dude get out there and learn. If you can drive period learning stick is like riding a bike (can you ride a bike?) it doesnt take long to figure it out. I wouldnt waste your time thinking "performance" with a auto four door. The car is clean though

 

you can get deals in the marketplace. check into doing an auto to manual conversion.

 

Look up the DB Squad thread. theres lot of info in there.

just because its automatic, doesnt mean you cant improve your driving abilities at an autocross or track (track does not = drag strip) event.

also, why do you list 98 up tails when you already have them?

18"s will make your car accelerate slower, and will affect your mileage (negatively) and braking as well.

stick with some 15" wheels and get some GOOD tires. avoid those Nankangs.

if anything, PM me.

 

Congrats, you have a rolling entertainment center

Correct.

Cars clean

 

Wow, your parts list is like a trip back to the 90's

Personally, if it were my car, I'd just do an ITR lip and slam it. Doesn't seem like you're into expensive/real wheels, so just throw some Rotas on it. Forget the clear corners and glow guages and shoulder pads Just make it look clean, do your stereo stuff, and cruise

 

clean car to start on

Ah, thanks for the correction. I'm not the most knowledgeable of Integra sedans, so pardon my ignorance.
