Congrats and welcome to the site. However, please be advised that this specific subforum is tech-based and threads that have no tech in it tend to get locked or moved. I recommend you ask something about anything on your car that needs fixins or tinkerins.

What does it have under the hood?

welcome OP. Also, contrary to popular belief it's ok to have a car that looks good and doesn't have a motor swap.

i'm just glad i didn't open a thread that said "hey guyzzzz here's my hatch with super hella d0pe stretched steelies, they are size 14x20 with a -90mm offset and i had to take my fenders off to fit them but it looks ****in rad right?!"

Are the Si A arms really worth swapping to?

Super super clean....except the white rims imo.

And I would suggest a rear subframe brace with a beefy sway bar like that your going to tear out your subframe

Also the SI A-arms are necessary for a 26mm (civic si or type r) sway bar.
Or do like me and get an aftermarket 26mm sway bar that fits civic ex a-arms
