what to do next...
 
i got a '93 civic sedan DX, and i want to know what you guys think i should do next to it. nothing extremely expensive like turbo though.
so far i have...

AEM short ram intake
Megan 4-2-1 header
test pipe
2.5" cat back exhaust
Anzo USA projector headlights
oem style taillights without amber corner
dropzone shocks/struts
tenrai lowering springs (1.5"F, 1.25"R)
Sony headunit
Sony Xplod 5.25" speakers in front, 6.5" in rear deck
Profile 700W amp
MA Audio 10" subwoofer x 2

planning on getting rims soon, and strut bars and tie bars - but what should i do after that?

thanks

I'm not 100% sure how they fit on the sedan...but they bolt on the coupe just fine...I would guess its the same for you. Maybe someone else would know better then me.

If it's a manual a nice short shifter would be beneficial, foglights would be cool too.

b18!!! haha, idk sounds like a sleek easy rider right now. i personally wouldnt go real in depth with an auto but if yuo plan on keeping it a while yea swap the auto out for a manual trans and put a new powerplant into it and itll be fun, sedans handle nice with the suspension done up right. post some pics for us!!

well do you want to do anything major performance wise? Either N/A build or F/I of some sort? Cuz if you want to, i'd suggest start saving for that ASAP. And in the mean time for sure wheels

alright, i think the next thing i will do will be the tranny swap. which ones will fit on my engine - its a D15B7. do you guys think a local shop would do it? and is it worth it to have them do it or should i do it myself and skip the labor costs? also... anyone know how much it might cost? (cost for shop to do it and cost for me to do it myself)

A decent alarm.

Then some UHP tires.

I'd also consider a flow-thru cat instead of a test-pipe, so that you're closer to street-legal.

If you swap the tranny, go with a performance clutch and consider an LSD.

alright, so far what i'm thinking is

manual swap and a good clutch and maybe a lsd and short shifter

an alarm would be a good idea so that people don't steal stuff

and i want to make my stupid tan interior black... carpet dye, black racing seats, (have seat cover on backseat already), headliner kit, new steering wheel (are ebay steering wheels alright?)
just i don't know if i should dye my dash or just get a new one...
does anyone know what dashes and door panelswill fit in my car? such as -will an integra dash fit? or maybe a different gen of civic's interior? or will i have to stick with the same kind of dash i have?
