what should be my first mod for my car? suspension? or engine swap (talking about an integra RS 90-93)

 

intake from ebay

 

Whats the budget? How many miles on that motor? I mean if the motor is on its last leg id consider getting another one prior to anything else. If you want to keep that motor - then I would do suspension first.

 

i say suspension. its the best mod for street use and plus it makes your car look better.

 

A good tune up should always be your first mod.

 

I say suspension also. Coilovers, shocks, sway bars, camber kit, etc...

 

Suspention.

 

if your car is 100% stock your first upgrade should be a $30 intake from e bay then after that shocks and springs

 

air spencer air freshener.. after that, the sky's the limit

 

good tires maybe?

i say get a good intake, then suspension. Lowering your car does make it look better but getting an intake will make it sound much better

 

if it's a used car, I'd say a major tune up. Just to make sure the car will be stable for the next couple thousand miles before you started to mod it. when u have the money or already have, then suspension/tires. get control of ur car before u go fast besides, it's the tires and the suspension that holds ur car not the turbo nor the kragen intake pipe.

 

agreed.

tune up...
suspension/tires [camber kit]
then decide what will be your goal? low/mid or high end power?

 

INtake!

 

suspension.

I agree

 

i also say suspension...my $.02

 

I'll probably get the tune up first, but this is a new car i'm getting within a month and a half, but i'll probably get it checked out, then get suspension and then decide if I want to swap the engine or not. But if I do, is a JDM b16a good for a turbo?? cuz I know it just fits in the RS integra..but would ya'll put a turbo on it??

 

intake, header, exhaust......sound better anyway..

 

geez, if an engine swap is one of your options for a first mod, id go with that

 

coilovers! drop that mug!

 

Would ya'll put a turbo on the jfm b16a tho? or just go all motor on that engine

They'll both work good. It all depends on personally preference.

If you have the money for a B16 swap and a turbo setup, you may want to consider dropping a bigger motor in there (i.e. B18xx, B20). That way you'll have alot of room to work with later on.
