Hey all, I just have got my first car-'94 civic - and thinking to do some mods to it but I am a little confused with the start.... what should I do and in which order its better...

 

All depends on budget and future goals.

 

drop your car before you get rims.

 

The order is really up to your budget (as stated above) and your personal preferences. Most of the people here will tell you to get a nice spring/shock combo first. You might want an intake/exhaust first. It's really up to you.

 

thanks..)

 

If you want performance, save for an engine swap, intake, header, test pipe, exhaust, and some form of air/fuel tuning device.

If you want turns, a good shock/spring combo and sway bars will go a long way.

As previously mentioned, decide where you want to go first, then start to drop money. Trust me, you'll never get it back.

 

whats the best brand for the shock/spring combo?

 

depends on your budget.

I just ordered a set of Omni coilovers (they come with the dampeners, as well). Those were $640 shipped...

Tein makes a set of coilovers with dampeners also, and those run in the $700's....

if you want adjustablility, Ground Control makes a good set of coilovers, but those don't include the dampeners. They're around $250ish. A great set of shocks/struts with those is Koni yellow's, but those alone are $500.

If you don't mind not being able to adjust your ride hight, some spring company's that are good at H&R, Neuspeed, or Tein (they make a set of springs, too).

Group Buy Center has a special going on where you can get a set of Tokico 1.5" springs and Tokico Blue's (non-adjustable shock/struts) for around $400.

hih

 

Thanks
