NEWBIE from TN

[LT2004ever]

hEYA PEOPLE (i hate caps lock) Well i just got my first civic yesterday, 2001 ex, pretty nice, everything checked out, but im not sure if i checked EVERYTHING!, so what do people usually pass up when checking things on their newly bought car?? Also is there n e one here from TN? And finally my last question.... are their any products i should avoid? or any things i should do to my 01 civic to improve performance right off the back ( low budget things)... thanx

Dont put a wing on it. Dont put a body kit on it. Start saving for boost or a K series swap.

First mods I would do are lowering springs and a camber kit. Then I would do shocks and some wheels.

Save your money for some: suspension,boost, or n2o. also i recommend www.7thgencivic.com

K series in a 7th Gen ?

But yea deffinitly lower the car get some nice rimz and tires!

[BrokenLimits]

Yes, they make mount kits for the K series in the 7th gen they were out BEFORE they made them for the 6th gens.

Depends on how you want to lower your car. I am gathering that you arent going to be racing it on a road course or anything with that in mind, I would get some Neuspeed Sports and either a Progress Camber kit or a Skunk2 Camber kit.

Why not get a wing? Because you have a Front Wheel Drive car and it will do NOTHING for your car. If you are talking about getting a stock painted wing then whatever floats your boat but to me the car looks better without one.

[PoisonFangs]

Yeah the K20a from the RSX-s fits nicely into the 7th gen engine bay, you just need the mounts, hasport has them.

And why in the Flock did Big ole loser tell him to shut up, and he also callled him "NOOB" they have the same amount of posts on the forum so for all we know hes the noob.

[BrokenLimits]

[Beastiek2]
