i have a 2005 honda civic lx sedan completely stock..what do you advise i customize it first??

 

how much cash money u got to blow??? lol

 

prob like 500-700

 

id prolly do some struts and springs to lower the car and then save up for some new rims.

 

Sumspenshum

 

id say drop 600 on rims, then get some lowering springs, that the most dramatic appearence change u can do with that amount. Unless u r a strictly performance guy and looks dont matter, then do with purely suspension or a high grade catback exhaust system

 

i say a good wheel/tire package, maybe 16"s or 17"s, and then a set of Tein S-Techs. That way you get the look/performacne of aftermarket wheels, but you wont go through that humiliating stage in a tuners life where you have wheel gap.

so good ^ trust me

 

if you want to go for looks, get rims... I'd say 16's or 17's. 18's tend to be a little to big on civics, and 15's... well, what's the point of getting 15's? (unless you're a hard-core jdm enthusiast or you are a member or honda-tech lol)

If you want performance, you can get an intake, a header, and/or a cat-back.... I don't know prices on the newer civics... I have a '94 EX and everything's dirt cheap for it

 

ooooh snap

i say rims/drop still, and then intake, and then a header, then cat-back exhaust, then complete enginge re-build w/ blueprint/port/polish and valvetrain upgrade, running 14 psi of boost and a 75 shot. Dont forgot the Stage 3 tranny or the LSD either.

 

7th Gen Sedan! Yay! I recommend NOT wasting money on performance... our LX's are not fast cars so dont fake it until you get an engine swap. I started with my altezza tails and ebay projectors (now they are high quality projectors)..... by the way... what color is your car?Next I did my money wasting on intakes then exhaust kit which really dont do much compared to what I could potentially do. Next was my tenzo r front upper and rear upper struts and those are great... then stereo system
