drop 1st
rims 2nd

as for rims/tires, I'd recommend discounttiredirect.com

They have great prices, free shipping, free mounting.

Voice of reason here... how about not making an investment that will only depreciate? You do know that no matter what you put in the car - it doesnt matter?


Ok, now that that is out of the way - do suspension and nice tires over repainted steelies. If you want a mod that will make you grin every time though - go for a quality short shifter and poly bushings in the shift linkage. That is the best "feel good" mod to do as it's blatantly obvious every time you shift.

i only drove a 5speed once, my buddy let me practice in his EG coupe. i couldnt get the thing moving, he's like its in first, he's explaining everything to me, so i put it in neutral then to first lol, he had it in third.. no wonder it stalled every time i tryed to let off the clutch at 2500 rpms lol.. i got the hang of it tho, i drove it from the empty parking lots to my house (bout 2 miles away) and back without stalling on the roads or anything so that was a good thing lol.. it was easy to get the hang of after i got it going for the first time..

<-- coulda traded my auto hatch for a swapped integra 5speed, but it had a ricer decal on it and it kinda ended the whole deal for me.. like 2 weeks later, i got a job at a gas station and she worked there... it was painted on, not a sticker.. so im kinda glad i diddnt trade, i cant afford a new paintjob and it looked like ****..
