I bought my first Honda Civic about four months ago which came with a short ram intake and a custom straight pipe exhaust. Recently I've installed a SAHCS clutch set and chipped the computer. I have some crazy ideas for this car but I would like the advice of experienced Honda drivers. Whats my next move? Budget $1500.00 until December. (D16Z6)

 

B16a!!!!!!!!

Yeah get one of them. Don't spend anymore $'s on that d-series if you want a b16.
I say do some suspension or brake mods and save for the b16.

 

For $1500 you can get a turbo kit for your motor and beat any stock B16 out there. Plus it would be hard to get a B16 and all the parts you need to swap it in for only $1500. Do some research and you will find the "little" D series motors can be pretty fast.

 

Hmmmmm Well depends what you want to run, my freind has a turbo D16, but its been a hassle to run it on stock internals, but when it was runnig good he made good power, but it was pricey to do and to keep it running well. Or you could do the B16a swap make a little less power, but mostly hassle free except for working out the swap kinks, and also spending a little more cash. Or you could do something completely different, like suspension, or wheels and tires, so its up to you.
