    As far as weight and price are concerned, those wheels are pretty much the best bang for the buck. I'd lose the tint, paint the hood, chin, and mirrors. Nice ride overall, though. Those mirrors rock.

    actually, the CM stage 5 is a really light clutch, it's just unsprung so you can't really ride it. i don't have hubcaps bc those are real rims and i don't really like gsr or si wheels. i like these rims because they're light, i'd really like to get the same rims in bronze though.

    With less? An EK with a b18c1 runs around mid-high 14, and you expect your b18b to run low 14's with some custom cams?

    cams/springs/retainers/hondata/ported head/manifolds and the list goes on. too bad i'm getting rid of the car soon, but i'll be taking it to the track before i do and i'll post up the slips. if i don't do better than a 14.7 then i'll eat my words.

    that's why i'm thinking of hopping in a DSM for my new project. they're so cheap and easy to make fast. a part of me wants to tear my motor down and build an all-motor beast with my four door, and keeping the outside the way it is. it's a good thing i have a daily driver so i can keep fkn with whatever car i want to.

    whp, yeah 150whp is about right. 175bhp is a good guess too. b18b1 if im not mistaken was rated for 140bhp

    Im sorry but I have to agree with Magnj, it doesn't look all that good

    I never have been a fan of 4/5 door cars, or cars with a different coloured bonnet

    It looks like it got into a bad crash and you didn't care about replacing the parts correctly.

    COsmetically, it looks like someone wrecked their econobox and the insurance company would not cover it so it was repaired with mismatched parts from a salvage yard.

    And that's a lot of upgrades to pay for and have almost nothing to show for it in regards to performance.

    Bleh, can't stand sedans I'm looking at a 96 civic coupe right now ($6k cdn from dealership). Will probably put $10k in upgrades into it. Overall it's a nice car you have though, just can't stand the look of 4 doors.

    Don't spend more on a car than it originally cost. That's foolish.

    Buy a 16,000$ car. Manufacturers get massive discounts compared to what you're paying for each individual part.
