You might get some impolite comments because most of the older users are going to feel that you should hang out here, earn your stripes and search for what other people have been doing.

Your post is not any kind of specific violation of anything, but many older users are going to ignore you or make off-handed comments about so general a question.

To the older users, I would say: Please gently show him the ropes or point him to threads instead of openly bashing him.

well i can say for myself that there is no exact plan...many of the parts for our cars are discontinued and/or new parts come into the market.

honestly, my goal is to someday rebuild my B16 and 2nd gear, keeping the car NA and trying to stay fuel efficient. it has plenty of power. with gas going up up up, i may be looking at mods for straight ethanol or another fuel. i keep it looking semi-stock, i have tein coilovers, full race traction bar, thermal exhaust, and an insulated cold-air intake. my car came with avid mounts, and a pr3 ecu. i also have a spoon ecu, but vtec kicks in too early for highway mileage.

as george said, SEARCH around and see what floats your boat...there's been LOTS of discussion about various parts and setups, and some arguments have been going for years. everyone's idea of perfect is different, and i feel like i'll never be done working on my car

It will lead to spamming, non tech related and/or off topic comments.

I'd hate for the tech forums to go through the same changes as the App/Cos forums.

That statement might be against the TOS.

Here's the EF forum rules for reference: https://honda-tech.com/zerothread/2086185

Here's the FAQ section: https://honda-tech.com/zerothread/1508680

It seems like you just wanna see pictures and hear about builds. The appearance & build threads are the perfect place to find what you're looking for.
Try looking in this section: https://honda-tech.com/zeroforum/122
