Default online sites?

Hi,

I have a 95 integra i just recently purchased. I'm looking to replace my oem parts and add aftermarket parts into my car. I would like to make small purchases and have it all installed all at once. I'm not planning to spend tremendous amount of money in my car, I just want it to look nice and decent with usual upgrades as my daily beater. With all these said, I"m trying to look for aftermarket integra internet sites. Would you suggest any?

Mainly, I want/need:

struts, any suggestions of what kind I should go for? Not to expensive. It currently has eibach prokits. I was thinking of getting Monroe struts but they told me that it would get shot faster since there are springs.

This is just an example of what I’m looking for.

I am interested with just changing my stock bulbs, not HID, new carpets, a nice shift knob....basic things, nothing crazy.

Also i have a rear sway bar, what is the link that i see in the back of honda's/integra's on the bottom?

After upgrading my oem parts, I'm looking to purchase an AEM intake...full header, dp and exhaust...do you have any suggestions of what kind... I don't want it LOUD at all. just nice deep soft tone. This might be a little hard to find since all integra's seem to sound raspy and high pitched.

Any light you can shed on my "making/improving" my car would be greatly appreciated.


P.S.

I also want the front and rear lip kits. Any good site i can go? I don't prefer carbon fiber, I live in the city with a lot of pot holes, I prefer the same material as OEM. What is ITR by the way? I just saw it when i was looking for lips. Mostly, I see a lot of carbon fiber.

Also I’m looking to spend about 1000 to 1200 for parts since I would have to pay for installation too.

Can anyone tell me how to post pics on the site? I'm trying to figure it out but unfortunately, can't.

Ok, ill break some of this down for you.

For shocks, I would go with Koni Yellows (expensive, but well worth it) or if your on somewhat of a budget, go with some Tokico Illuminas (white ones) both are 5-way adjustable and work great w/out breaking the bank.

For your replacement bulbs, just go to your local auto parts store. If you're getting OEM carpet, just go to your local acura dealership, or look for a discount place online (google it) I cant help you with the Shift knob, cause it really depends on what kind you want. Figure it out, and just google it, and you pretty much find anything you want. Remember, you dont have to touch anything unless it's broken, so dont waste your time/money on parts that don't need to be replaced.

What are your plans for this car, NA (naturally aspirated) or FI (forced induction) If your keeping it NA, get a AEM short ram intake, ITR header (Integra Type R) and Apex'i WS exhaust (very quiet but worth it) However, if you're planning on boosting, dont get any of those parts. With the front and rear lip kit, go with an ITR kit, or Mugen in ABS plastic.

In conclusion, if you have about 1200 to spend on parts, I would use that to begin piecing together a turbo kit. A lot more power/torque, and a lot more fun. That would be my choice. Either way, it's up to you, so good luck

Sounds like you just contradicted yourself. Koni Yellows are expensive and work great without breaking the bank, OK.

A downpipe on a NA setup. :irock:

I know, i realized that later. Koni yellows are expensive, but definitely worth it. Tokico's are relatively cheap and worth it also. I guess i didnt explain that very well.
