Default Just got my civic!

Just got my tax refund....and went out and found a great deal on a '00 Civic EX, 5-speed! Hmmm...hopefully I have enough cash for some upgrades!

Planning on upgrading suspension, wheels, and brakes first....along with tint and a short shifter. Oh the possiblities!

A short shifter is not a waste of money dude, it cost under $100 and easy to install, and yes it does a big difference!!!

And to buddy, good luck with the car and get a short shifter!!!

P.S. If you need help how to install, pm me!!!

Not enough for the whole car....but enough to drop a down payment and little payments.

I got the hookup for a short-shifter....and I drove a car with one and like the way it shifts....its all about personal preference.

I'm wanting to put on the new Edelbrock turbo kit with the Garret T28 ball bearing turbo....since it comes with a pre-tuned piggy-back ECU and E.O. # But I want to upgrade other things first before bumping the power level up....like making sure I can corner faster, and stop on a dime.

Oh...and get a spare motor to build up a high boost, 20+ psi track engine.

Thanks....

Its silver.....so if I ever do put a swap in it, no one will notice from the exterior. I'm already drooling over the options to do to it.....but it is getting some extensive theft protection, especially being that's its located in So Cal!

I'm thinking of getting those quick-release steering wheels....can't drive it away without a steering wheel! hehe
