Rick B. Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 In my opinion, the 96-00 civics are the best looking, they have the sexiest lines and everything is just perfect. basic mods to start out with are intake, header, exhaust; after that try an intake manifold, larger throttle body, and a chipped ecu. You can follow it up with a turbo set up or try a motor swap (go for a b18c1 "gsr") Probly the first thing to do is to lower it. get some nice wheels (15"-16"s look best) and a 1.5"- 2" drop would be nice. But thats what i would do, your taste might be different than mine so decide for yourself, these are more like guidelines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamLach Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 If you are looking for a 95 like you said, you might as well consider the 92-94 too. Same body style pretty much. I love my 94 civic and you can definitely find a 92-95 for uber 5 grand. I have an EH hatch and I paid around 2,500 and everything was in great condition.

He said '95-'00 not '92...and I don't know why he said '95 because '95 is different body style than '96-'00 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben. Posted June 23, 2007 Share Posted June 23, 2007 I know why he said 92/94. Might be because MAYBE he thought dude might've been looking for a 92/95 after making his comment.. It'd be easy to think he might want an eg..what's three years prior to that..not much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
