I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

What 2 Do Next?

Post by JaySmith » March 01, 2005

Ok it really doesn't seem like I'm going to have money for a swap, it just keeps looking like an unobtainable goal unfortunatly. So with roughly $4000 (Canadian currency) to spend, what should I look into? I was considering new seats, as the O.E Civic seats are extremely uncomfortable. :( Maybe a SOHC Turbo setup? Suggestions?

So here's what I was honestly considering purchasing with the newly founded fundage.

- Alex Front Strut Bar
- Alex Rear Strut Bar
- Omni Power 12k/10k Coilovers (Teins Are To Soft)
- Beaks Subframe Reinforcement Kit
- 22mm Integra Type R Rear Swat Bar
- Mugen Steering Wheel

And possibly a brake upgrade. Anyone know of some aftermarket companies that after a drum to rear disc conversion? I was thinking Wilwood, but I dunno. Honestly until sometime rolls around, I don't know what I'm doing as of yet. I'll show you what I did today though. :P

Hard to come across an SiR rear disc assembly here, and if they pop up, they're snatched up before I ever find them. haha That's why I'm considering something aftermarket.
