I've got a 94 GT and it's got front and rear strut bars, ram air intakelight wieght flywheel, good tires, good break pads, and pretty well strate exhaust. I was just wondering what would be the next step that experienced 6th gen owners would take on this progect and why? 5S-FE input only please. Thanks ya'll.

I've wanted a civic forever man. Everyone thinks they're nothing but "ricer cars." Thats because alot of them are. But if I had one with a bunch of performance mods I could surprise the heck out of everyone were I live. I'd rather have a rearwheel drive though. I know what I want, but I have to work with what I've got. My family and girlfriend already hate me for fixing up the cars that I have. I said that the celica would be a nice reliable car, and it's fast already. But that's just from a test drive. During the test drive you never push it above 4 grand, I didn't at least. And I thought with all this power at low end it must be crazy up tords 6 grand. After i bought it and tested it out, I found out my Geo would stomp it. I've been sad ever sence.

[right][snapback]217982[/snapback][/right] I test drove an RSX and pushed it to 8 grand... no sweat. The dealer guy actually encouraged it... Umm... Civics are nice cars. I've done up my share of Civics in the past. As for the 5SFE... you're not gonna be satisfied with it if you're thinking the way I think you're thinking. As for the 240sx... we had one as a potential project car a while also, a 91 Hatch. It's an alright car, but IMO, it's not that much more powerful than a Celica GT. It's not gonna have that quick revving feel and the engine isn't as responsive as the 5SFE. It's just a bigger motor. Again... not gonna be like what you're describing. It too makes little power after 5000 rpms. It's your call though. -------------------- "It's ok to be naked girl... I'm an artist!"
