I replaced my shifter bushings to new aluminum ones after reading many reviews around the forums.
It's not AMAZING compared to stock but I definitely felt an improvement on second gear. It finally behaves and doesn't want to pop out of gear like it sometimes did. Now I don't have to worry about grinding in second. Shifting improved a little bit.
Overall, it was worth it. Next upgrade will be the Revo SS.

I don't see too many 5th gens anymore. In fact, they don't even seem to exist where I live. After looking at some other custom 5th gens, i'm really starting to like those. Maybe even more than a 6th gen

ya 5th gens are rare these days, i've only seen about 3 where i live. that's my favorite civic body style, 5th gen all day personally, i've always liked the smaller headlites compared to 6th gens
i've hear good things about the redline. as well i have about amsoil. i use amsoil synethetic syncromesh in my car (manual). once i switched i could tell a big difference how smooth the transaction between gears was. amsoil = good stuff imo
progress eh? i don't at all wunna high jack this thread, but will make another one soon enough to inquire further on this. hoping i can drop about 1.5" with just coilovers

Re: What did you do to your civic today?
my right side hid decided not to come on last night, so i ended up taking the bumper off again and soldering the harness connectors directly to the relay. will suck if i have to ever change the relay, but at least the connection is solid. if it doesnt work, i need to think about a new ballast

thats what i had before. and a whole bunch of plastic chunks were crumbling off it when i checked. so i popped out the spades and soldered them straight to the relay. it was tight when i first installed the connector but i guess all the hot/cold cycles loosened them up a bit.
decided to wash car, then go for a drive, hit some nice deep puddles of water from sprinkler runoff, deatiled car again lol. but the hid seems to be working so far.

What I really like about the 5th gen is the roofline (coupe). It looks more like a hatchback inspired sports car with it's steeper sloping rear window. I also prefer the 5th gen head lights. I wonder what the car would look like it it had taillights similar to a 7th gen coupe
or a 7th gen front end on an em1

New sparks installed in the Orlando WalMart parking lot and poured in some fuel injector cleaner (Gumout). Then I drove that thing 450 miles from Disneyworld back home (no more misfires)
