what makes a 2 door better than a 4 door? ...and dont tell me weight issues either.

sorry, didnt mean to piss anyone off. theres nothin better between either one, i just like 2 doors better because i have one. but on the constructive side, my friend has a black 4 door dx and hes got coilovers and exhaust, and its pretty nice. so those would be the first 2 things id do. or rims

You didnt "piss me off". I just wanted to hear a logical explanation for your answer...that is all.

Well, if you are looking for go and not show, I wouldn't waste money on the basic bolt ons (I/H/E) on that 1.7L non vtec. It puts out 115hp and with I/H/E you would get a max of around 125hp (still less than an EX at 127hp). Maybe save the money for a swap? There have been people who finally swapped in a K20 into the 7th gen civic. It's not an easy (or cheap) job, but can be done and mounting kits might be released soon.

Is it a manual or an auto? If it is manual you can look into small shots of nitrous or a turbo at low boost. You could still go nitrous or turbo if you have an auto, but I doubt that tranny would last long. Honda's auto tranny's weren't meant to handle much more power.

Good luck with everything :thumbup:

Oh one last thing...4 doors rule :D
