What exactly are you asking?

 

anyideas on looks and performance this is my first honda

 

I'd start with the maint stuff so it can stay on the road.

While working on that stuff you can PLAN what you want to do. Lots of ideas and paths to go down.

thanks man i plan on it

 

maintenance then a swap?

how many miles are on the chassis?

 

there are 137k with a new head cause previous owner bent the valves

 

couldn't more agree
repaint
get some accessories
get new rims

perhaps u should post your car picture here

 

i will soon as my camera gets out off the shop but yea thats what i was thinking repaint and rims and do the jdm fog lights and marker signals on it

 

Id go with performance first. Make it look stock but have decent power. Full exhaust or a decent catback and an intake.

Also do some maintanance. Check for loose front end parts, rusty areas, faded paint, leaking fluids, worn interior, cracked / foggy lenses (turn/bumper/headlamp housings/tail lights), change fluids so they are fresh. If the head was done recently, check paper work (if you have it) for a timing belt/balancer belt, water pump. Those are most important for these cars.

Handling next. Lower it some (if your roads in your area can allow you to), nice wheels with good performance tires, tint windows (check your laws). Can change the lights too (aftermarket clear/JDM/etc.

Many ways to fix/change your ride to your liking

 

the first thing i bought for mine was an air intake

 

ROH FTMFW!

 

jst_4_kiks yea man thanks i work at the honda dealership so i know its been done but yea man thanks for the advice

 

No problem bigwheel. Glad I could help and steer you in the right direction for some basic simple stuff to do onn your cb7. Post some pics too. I use photobucket. Very simple.

Also working for a honda dealership should be great for you. Oem parts for a discount/cheap. Send some my way, lol.

Also, since your screen name is bigwheel cb7, put some big wheel on it. Rolling on dubs ftw.

 

naw man no dubs im going to do some low pro 15s

 

Hey no problem man. Don't need bigwheels just because your name is bigwheel. I did it as I joke. Lol

Low pro 15s look good. Post some pics too.

 

Take care of maintence first, replace anything that is rubber and looks like it hasn't been replaced, as your dealing with a 20+ year old car. This includes all coolant hoses, vacuum lines, suspension components, replace driveshaft boots, etc. Then I would focus on adding performance. Do you want to go naturally aspirated? The stock motor has potential, but the most common thing done is a h22 swap. The stock motor can handle a decent amount of boost too, but its a crapshoot in regards to time before the ringlands fail, and they will fail; any serious boost and you should go for forged internals.

Whats your budget, and what would you like to accomplish? You can be all show no go, or all go, and no show (sleeper) the choice is up to you. Let us know what the general direction you would like to go, and we can offer you suggestions.

 

at first i want it to look good but later on i going to start on performance
