Thats where you fine individuals come in.
Since it's been a while since i had my 88 vic, i have forgoten alot about hondas....I'm pretty much depending on the knowledge, ideas and input that i will gain from this site. i'm young so i'm still in that custom state of mind. i will have a steady job and i will most likely spend a nice little chunk of change on the car. (might as well right?)

well the car is super duper completely stock, which is good cuz i can do whatever i want and start from scratch. my main priorities are handling and speed, appearance is somewhat important but i'm only going to go minimal on the exterior, i dig the whole "keep it jdm" thing. i want somewhat of a sleeper. i don't want my car looking like someone is gonna want to race me at every light...(beauty within if u know what i mean).....a swap is deffinetly on my list. but bear with me here,since i am a newbie, i still have to learn what the best swap for a 6th gen is without completely breaking the bank....h22, b16a2, b18, k20?? i wouldn't know where to start until i do some research and get some advice. handling is also very important to me, i can care less about comfort, dats why i borrow my mom's tundra if i want to be comfortable, so suspension upgrades are deffinetaly a must...

$5k is a little much for a civic coupe 2000. I got my 94 integra gsr for $5k flat. But the cheapest swap would be a b18c1 = gsr swap. next would be b18c5 = type R swap. Gsr swap is about $2500 and a type R is around $4k-5k.

k20 i believe is around $8-11k depending on what you have done.

sry, i meant to take pics, i just got done working, i'm gonna post pics up of the car on a new thread... i just gotta find some AA batteries for the camera, (typical).

anyway,first plans i have is to get tints, loose the stock stereo and speakers and steel wheels and hubcaps. those are the first things....I'm thinking about getting some si alloys or those 7th gen alloys that look like si alloys, for now..My old car, which i'm selling has a pioneer avic-d1 installed in it but, it was a the biggest pain in the *** to install and it's gonna be an even bigger one to remove and install in the civic......so i'm just selling my old car with it on there....and i'm gonna start from scratch with the audio...

anyway look out for the pics,, i should have them posted up by tonight....
