Part 5: Get the power to the ground and stop it too

[Si2000 Vtec]

Page 180 in the Feb. Super Street has them for $90/tire. I know you can talk Discount Tire down in price. I agree with you on the Wheel/Tire setup, however I think we should front the money for the Apex N1 Coil/Shock assembly.

Good suggestions. But I don't think some of that stuff will be considerably more than you listed.

I haven't the slightest idea about shocks, or brake kits. My suggestion would be definately to do a rear brake conversion for sure and to match the rotors up front. Drop it low but not scrappin' your tire on the wheel well low, just an inch or two (more likely 2). But for the wheels the Konig Absolute in Graphite would look pretty good. I like 'em alot! Konig's suggested retail is set at $237.14 each. But man do the ever look sweet !!!

[piscorpio]

Why not just go with what I have? Aside from some new rotors and pads, I think it would pretty much do the trick.

APEXi WS - 800
Neuspeed strut bar (upper front) - 90
Suspension Tech. rear sway bar - 120
Integra rear disc conversion - 300

Total - 1310

Then if we want new rotors, we can get power slots all around for less than 300 dollars.

The wheels is where this thing gets tricky. They can get expensive very easily, especially if we try to please both the show crowd and the performance crowd. (light wheels that also look hot, tend to be expensive.)

I have one suggestion for wheels, these velox vx-8 R wheels I have been looking at are nice in my opinion. Plus they are only 16", so its kind of an improvise between show (17"-18") and go (14"-15"). To top it off they are 17lbs. which is not too shabby for paying.....125 a piece!
I found them at wheelsmart.com or something, you can get a set of four, for 500 even. Then, all you have to do is get some good tires.

ITR 5-lug conversion with wheels

Wheels and brakes in 1!

$1800 on average! gunmetal 15" ITRs...yessss!!!

Go with piscorpio's suspenion setup....

leaves us with what? $6000 for everything else?

[auke1]

2000 seems about right for this spending stage. That'll leave 6,000 for the system, kit, interior, and any other touch ups that we need.

I want some nice wheels on this thing. I move for Racing Hart CP-10's. They look sweet on the Vortech Civic, and i think they would look good on this one too with a conservative kit and stuff.

1350 for 17x7's at modcar.com, with Yokohama Paradas included. plus, these only weigh 17lbs.

for those who don't want big ones, ive got 15x6.5 at wheelmax.com for 799, and come with tires (brand unknown)

As for the suspension setup, I should probably leave that to everyone else. I know that Koni's are nice, eibach springs do the job right, and whatever break kit you guys like is cool with me.

I would attach a picture, but i have no idea how to...

[auke1]

and why arent we enlisting moderators from the "suspension" forum to help us out. Out of curiosity, is this topic in all of the forums...it might be nice to have the "sound forum" help us out for the sound stage.

[CivSiGuy]

the suspension and stereo freaks are always in here.. so they will post when there time comes

[auke1]

This post ends today, and we still havent even had a poll up to decide our options...sounds like someone is watching too much of that sad, pathetic excuse for commercials and teen pop sensations called the superbowl...
