a double decker wing and NAWS!

Do suspension stuff. Sway bars, strut bars, control arms, etc. At least it'll handle well if it isn't fast.

Well I already have the following for suspension.

Tein Type SS Dampers
Alex C Pillar
Alex Trunk Bar
Spoon Front Lower Tie Bar
Spoon Rear Lower Tie Bar

However the Spoon Tie Bars are being removed, as the Fronts really messed up. haha And I purchased the Beaks Subframe Tie Bar to replace the Rear. And I also just purchased SRR LCAs not to long ago, so there awaiting to be put on. And I won't be doing a Sway Bar, unless its from the SiR (which is a possibility), as I don't want to risk subframe damage with these soft spring rates.

I just E-Mailed Kings, and AJR about the Mugen, and Spoon suspension. Can't go wrong with Showa.

Honda sticker looks good. I've got mine at a crazy angle on the top left hand side (from inside the car). Oh yeah, thats the passenger side for me, RHD Biatch!!!

if u want a good sway/tie combo check out asr. the tie bar is actually a full sheet of steel that covers the subframe reducing stress and wont rip.

you could get a b16a motor for about 2500 shipped depending on where you go? but like munster said, do suspension, although you seem to have a pretty decent set up. and anything Mugen is great! hint hint.....good luck with the car

B16A in my opinion just wouldn't cut it. I wouldn't be happy in spending money on something so weak. I would probably choose to go B18B before I went with the B16A.

My suspension setup is meh, I'd prefer it to be better.

And I would like rear disc too, if I could only find it.

So here's the run down, as I've finally decided on what I'm going to be doing.

Alex Front Strut Bar - $240.00
Alex Rear Strut Bar - $210.00
Do Luck Rear Cross Bar - $432.00
Honda Civic SiR Rear Sway Bar - $242.35
Tein Type SS Replacement Springs (10K/6K) - $247.00

TOTAL: $1371.35

Additional Possibilities...

Falken Azenis Sports - $550.00
PasswordJDM Power Mirrior Harness, and JDM Switch - $150.00 usd

All prices were converted to Canadian currency, except for the wiring harness. haha And if I can find a set of used right, and left front lower control arms, and shock forks from a 99-00 Honda Civic Si/SiR I'll be doing the front SiR Sway Bar as well.

Hopefully this will keep me happy in the handling department for quite sometime. And whatever money I have left over (hoping lots), I plan to save for a road trip this summer.

[EDIT]: By the way, does anyone have pictures, or some sort of instructions on where to cut the holes for the Rear Strut Bar? Its stupid there's no precut holes. haha

Hey, James fastbrakes.com makes a drum to disc conversion, http://www.fastbrakes.com/products/prod ... =EF-EKrear
And I think AEM also makes a conversion kit.
