just got 2000 gs

this is my first car actually, it's a 2000 integra GS... i was hoping to get some help on making it quicker and making it look better...

i was thinking of changing the tires and rims... but when i do that... do i HAVE to change the suspension?

i was also thinking of changing the intake and the radio... it's ugly...

anyway, i'm new at this and any suggestion will be greatly appreciated... thanks in advance :sun:

if u change the rims, no u don't have to lower it. lowering it will help ur handling however, an IMO makes the car look a lot cleaner.

as for the intake, its not a bad start, follow up w/ an exhaust an header, an there u go.

ok, thanks... but first, what's an IMO? :bloated:

In My Opinion

i LOVE my stock radio in my integra. What's wrong with yours?

there's nothing wrong w/ my radio, it works fine, i just don't like the look.... it's got that old radio look... i dunno... but no, the radio functions perfectly

Huh? The radio in my mom's 2000 LS sucks. The one in my brother's 02 Hyundai Accent was way better. :confused: :confused: :confused:

I would get Intake/catback exhust system, and some headers first,, if u want performance, then go for rims and get it dropped, yeah Integra radio's are ugly change that too,

Dave

website for what?

header?
radio?
intake?

Yeah CD player and 6 speakers. POS

Ebay (http://www.ebay.com)

wouldn’t know about the stock sound. I got mine and than found out the speakers were blown :( dont really matter, just forced me to change them out sooner than I wanted

I don't think it's the speakers, I think it's the head unit.

i've got 6 speakers in mine too... it's doesn't sound too loud... sorta clear... its really not that great... but i don't know, maybe it's because it's on the radio...

hey go to www.Shmotorsport.com u have to go to google and type it in there sometimes it doesnt work right, everything is good and at good prices, go for skunk2

i have a question guys... i was driving and about 2 or 3 times, i didn't quite step on the clutch deep enough and when i tried going to 3rd gear the gears didn't "bite" or something... so as a result i had to step again on the clutch and then try going to the 3rd gear...

i don't know if i'm just paranoid, but i'm noticing a little shake in the stick when it's on 3rd gear... i'm back in my apartment and i just noticed it right before i got in... i didn't have time to experiment or to check with the other gears in case the shake is the same... it doesn't shake like crazy or anything... it's just a little shake...

do you guys think this is anything to be worried about? :(

It happens to everybody bro, I got nervous when I drove 5 speed for the first couple of times too, I dont think it is anything to be worried about
