$5000? I'd save that money, sell the Civic, and use it as a downpayment for a new car Then again, we all can't be fortunate to have our dad's shell us $5000.

Save the money and continue to save your own money until you are allowed to do some performance mods....

hahaha, I dont think this guy can get one usefull piece of info throughout all those posts!
"Buy a new car"
"Save your money"
"Turbo"
"Motor swap"
"Vacation"

I'm gunna try to help him. Although, I dont think he's coming back....

Im not sure how old you are right now, but i'm assuming your looking at all show/no go. I was there, but soon enough your going to slap yourself for not buying a new motor! I suggest you drive your civic for awhile, then hop in an integra GSR and feel the difference. You will love it, perhaps wet your pants even.

As for DVD player, go with what was said earlier about the PS2. Get yourself a good Head unit, I suggest an alpine with front, rear, and sub pre outs. Get some subs! Subs are the way to go, two 12's should make your genitals shake.

You can so easily get around your parents with performance. The word "internals" comes to mind...
But, when you get a new motor, and your dad looks under the hood and see's "DOHC VTEC" on the much bigger valve cover, tell him that cover is simply for looks, but it is the same engine.
For looks, what I would do is get an SI lip on the front, maybe a modest kit if you want, and get rims that are suiting to your taste. I can't be the one to tell you to get 16's or 17's.
And likewise, get what you want to get, not what we are telling you.
