what would you guys spend on if u have 1000$ to spend? on a any stock car?

 

EX or not?
100 on used intake
200 on axle back
100 on custom b pipe with 24" resonator (mandrel bent)
300 Header (JDM 4-1 used)
200 on springs (used)
80 on APC upper front and upper rear strut bar
20 gas.
Total $1000

 

nifty..

 

if you're looking for affordable ...
www.airdynamicracing.com

cant vouch for them, never used them....

 

thousand dollars huh?

if I didnt already have a B series swap, I'd put that toward the swap

if I already had a B series motor:

type-r or skunk intake manifold $250
Endyn cam gears$350
Endyn breather kit $140
Apexi VAFC $350

OK I was 100 bucks over, sorry


EDIT-oh yea, for free you take out the intake resonater and yank off the muffler, gut the cat. take off the power steering and the AC belts, yank the distributor off and take a scotch brite to the rotor. You can also plug the fuel return line if you believe in that. Another thought is to take header wrap to the stock header.

What good is giving the car more power if the tires are sorry...upgrade to better tires first.
- Get some good cheap aftermarket wheel with good performance tires ~900
- Sell the stock tires and wheels ~ $400 back
...So now you have about $500...
-Get a CAI $200
-Custom or used catback exhaust system for $300

 

Actually the Mugen head gasket is a good deal at $115 from http://www.king-motorsports.com.

 

Haha all motor Honda isn't going to spin that much...everybody has their own opinion, but I just laugh all the way down the road at the guys with fancy body kits and rims, try as they may to catch me...

 

nowadays it's more like CAI for 100$ and a catback exhaust for 400+$

 

for a b-series

intake(used aem)-100
header(used something)-200
exhuast(used also)-300
NITROUS(of course imma say used )-300
cheap *** coilovers-100

now you got a 13 second car that is slammed to the ground

 

Drag Manifold (used) - $250
Tial 35mm wastegate (used) - $100
Custom piping - $150
Turbo Timer/BOV/MISC gauges - $250
Junkyard Turbo - $250
Time and Labor on Install - Priceless (but a pain in the ***)

 

My revised list:

1.$30 air filter on the end of the stock piping ($30)
2.$115 Mugen head gasket ($145)
3.$0 punch out cat ($145)
4.$0 take off power steering and AC belts ($145)
5.$250 Skunk intake manifold ($395)
6.$350 Endyn cam gears ($745)
7.$0 take off stock muffler ($745)
8.$150 JDM Civic-r racing crank pulley ($895)
9.The other $100 bucks will cover any shipping and a 12 pack of Corona

EDIT-I would say to get nitrous, but I'm not a fan, plus its costs more than people think to have a GOOD nitrous set up. And Junkyard turbo kits never make good power, end up pooch screwing alot of other things and ALWAYS end up costing more money than you think they will.
