Hello and welcome to my dd(daily driver).
I currently own a 98 civic dx sedan, and i will be keeping this car for a while. I am in the military and stationed overseas, so parts i find i can only get online, sucks for me, yes. I really haven't done that much to the car. It was previously owned by a 2f2f fan, so i had to fix some of his flaws. So far, it has a aem true time cam gear, active 4-2-1 header, 3" flow exhaust, new grounding, ram air intake, and all the electronic stuff (ice). Its current color is metallic blue, and in pretty good condition. I am in the process of replacing the whole fuel system with aem, also new alternator, spark plug (& wires), throttle body, and a few accesories. That project will be complete in about 2-3 months. Im not wanting it to be the best thing in the world, just a nice little family car. If anybody has any suggestions about what i could do or some preferences, please dont hold back. And by the way, NOS is completely out of the question. Thanks for your time and help.

upgrading fuel system?> Get bigger injectors and up the Fuel pressure

 

hey, thanks for putting your *** on the line for us over there. i appreciate it. my little brother was killed over there with 6 of his tank mates in a roadside bombing on jan 5th this year. anyway, on to the car. i am pushing a 1.6 too, just an earlier model, a 93. but they are similar in construction. i would recomend a new cam, found mine on ebay for around 250.00, also a throttle body spacer couldnt hurt either found mine for around 80.00 on ebay also. the guy i bought the cam from recommended valve train upgrade and fuel pressure regulator. i did not buy valve train upgrade yet (kinda pricey, decent one's run 500.00 and up) but i did get the fuel pressure regulator 80.00, a fuel rail 60.00, and intake manifold 150.00, also bought plug and play ecu that is pre-programmed to kick vtec in at 4400rpm and rev limiter at 9600 rpm or so for 180.00, these are some options to consider. ebay has all sorts of **** for the 1.6 so check it out.
