well just like the title says i just got a check for 300 and this is my car http://community.webshots.com/user/osofast10 what would you guys get. i was thinking of a RS front lip and then buying an accord rear lip and then painting it all red. what do you guys think? or do you guys have a better idea? let me know. thanks

MR.CLIFFORD · 06-18-2003, 08:29 PM

um....

I'm willing to bet the RS lip won't fit

call it a hunch

haha i took that intake off a long time ago

OSOFAST10 · 06-18-2003, 08:35 PM

come on everyone goes through a rice stage

..... that intake was my rice stage

jsmooney · 06-18-2003, 09:05 PM

why is the bumper kinda sagging at the bottom.....and oh yeah......F22B is the ****!

jsmooney · 06-18-2003, 09:05 PM

buy a ebay muffler, and get 2.25" piping run.....do you have intake? if not get intake! maybe a header?

jsmooney · 06-18-2003, 09:07 PM

oh, i know the intake looks ricey, but did it help at higher speeds? kinda like FI? just wondering....

OSOFAST10 · 06-18-2003, 09:08 PM

i have intake/exhaust but i guess i kinda want to make my car look a little bit better.

if anything it would hurt. all the passing air would more than likely
pull out the air going in.

intercoolers dont need passing air, rather needs just cool air.

should i save up and just get a used zex kit?

concLude · 06-18-2003, 11:43 PM

what about cam gears...cant blow up your car with that.

Get: pullies AEM used $100 - po.com
Carsound Cat - 100$ i think somewhere else
Cam gears both used - po.com maybe?

Get real JDM headlights ($300 +/-) and then sell your old projectors for like $100 to someone and use that money on pulleys or something.

I dunnno what you should do with 300, but i would take some time and clean that engine bay, nothin worse than a dirty engine bay.

tastyratz · 06-19-2003, 12:49 PM

theres nothing rice about a performance part if it works. you could have a field day with a bunch of money like that. depends on how much time you have, and what your needs are; if you want go or show. you could buy some vinyl dye, some caliper paint, cam gears, accord rear lip, you could get an egr block plate made, tons of stuff.

Get an Apex'i SAFC.

Its in your price range, and its a nice addition for any tuner. It looks great, is functional, a great conversation piece (work with me now...) and chicks dig it.

Tola · 06-22-2003, 10:01 PM

I would go with a header. It made the most difference for me in terms of smoothness and power.

My second choice would be the Apex'i SAFC, like Redline said.

That sounds like a great idea man!!

Seriously, if you wanna make your car look better, or perform better for that matter, just save up, cuz 300 bucks aint gonna get you very far.
