| The K&N does the job.
If you haven't already, i would say lowering it. preferbly coilovers because of its adjustability. suspension work on those cars are the best modifications you can do to them imo.
is it by any chance the b16 civic Si? | |

joel? do you recommend any type of coilovers or spark plug wires i heard good things about eibach Depends on what you actually want to do with your car.. if you want to track the car, i would say skunk2 Pro-c's or a set of Apexi's your car should ride likes on rails from experience. Progress cs2 coilovers are nice aswell. but if you want to get the car low and forget about it, just get a simple spring and shock combo.. instead of the above which have dampening, camber, rebound adjustability.. spark plug wires, i totally believe its just for aesthetics.. unless you just have a bad connection on your current ones, but actually wouldn't hurt to have a set.. I dont know many brands, but i'd go with a set of NGK's btw aleks, is this chick the one? | |

| thought it was another hater.. haha
in that case, i would just get a spring and shock combo, enough to get the car handling better but not too much to kill your wallet.
best bang for the buck mods on those cars i would say is to gutt everything. make it a paperweight.. just my 2cents | |

| You guys are all wrong. Nicole. You need:
Massive wing, off center stick on hood scoop, altezza lights, clip on spinners, and a 400 inch sub.
Or black out your headlight housings, lower it on some skunk2's, get some diamond racing steelies (they go off of back spacing instead of offset so keep that in mind), purple or teal lug nuts (not aluminum because it will shroud), and a mellow little jdm replica lip. | |
