A buddy gave me this car, looking to use it as a learning experience. Looking to make her fast and sexy! All ideas and tips are welcome as I am new to the build game. Car is an 04 civic lx coupe.

Unfortunately, this chassis is not as easy to work with compared to earlier models.

You can K20 swap it. EM2/ES1 01-05 Civic

You can turbo it. People have had mixed results.

You can make this car look pretty nice, but don't expect any power gains from header/exhaust/intake. It is a 1.7L single cam economy engine. It isn't designed for speed.

Lower it, tint the rear windows.
