New person here with a question
Hello all,
I have a 2001 civic dx 5-speed 2 door coupe. No frills from the factory. It has a full xenon eurothane body kit, Kamanari rear spoiler, guages, racing tachometer and after market exhaust with 17" enkei rims. I've had the car for almost 3 years. Best car i've ever owned as far as reliability, fuel milage and looks go. My question is i am looking to upgrade to a better engine that i can put performance parts on, intake, turbo, exhaust etc. What are my options? With other engine options will it work with my stock 5-speed transmission or will i have to change that too?
Thanks

i'd get rid of the ugly first.
so the tach is specifically for racing? lolllllll
And here I was, thinking that tachs were for reading the RPMs of the engine. Silly me.

No need for this.... at least without pics lol.
So heres your choice you either A) swap to a k series which would involve everything that does anything from the pedals forward swaped to either a si or a rsx. This will cost somewhere around 5k
B) do what almost noone does and build your pos d17. $who knows....

Just so everyone can see his edit:
"Get rid of the ugly first" means exactly what it says. Get rid of the rice on your car, which from the sounds of it is just about everything you've done to it.
Yes I finished high school. But even if I hadn't, who are you to talk, you're the one stuck in the 90's.
Also, if you would have done a damn search, you'd find that your question has been asked and answered a lot already.

lets see some pics. did you lower the car with those 17", what aftermarket exhaust did you get? is this a daily driver?
btw, 06_warrior, no need to come on here and start flaming a well-establish, reputable member here. no need to post up those comment to make yourself more superior here. you can't expect everyone to like your car. body kits, huge exhaust, tall *** spoilers and what constitutes as rice and is what give civic's a bad reputation. trust knows what he is talking about, he is one of the most knowledgeable member on here, so if you don't like what you hear then take your post somewhere else. with your type of comments, doubt many people will help you now.

When you get overrun by ricers, you get what's happening to Honda-Tech. Tons of ricers are joining Honda-Tech, and all of the frustrated senior members are leaving because they hate V-bulletin and they hate ricers. Now Honda-Tech is mostly a bunch of people giving bad information, and then a few people who actually know what they're talking about.
