...And youve already spent 700 of it on replacing the Rims, Intake, Exhuast, clear corners, eye lids that were stolen off your car...what would you do with the last 400-600(estimating...still gettin more money from insurance company) ? I already have a kit...which I will get painted and installed for $250 (gettin hooked up) and I need an alarm... ...so with this last 400-600 im trying to think of somethin else to buy. I have a black 1995 civic ex coupe... AUTOMATIC lol..yea..cant really do shit with an automatic. Im no racer anyway...just do it for the love of fixin up my car. Any ideas? And no tezzas suggestions please lol. Im thinking about getting a CF hood but I dunno.

Also one last question, would those of you out there say the stock level off the ground on a 1995 civic is to LOW or to HIGH for a body kit on 17" rims? Cuz if thats the case, I may need to buy some coilovers. Thanks guys

If your not a racer why are you upgrading the exhaust and intake? I would save it and buy a B20z.

B20Z is the bad high compression motor, you want the b20b so you can go turbo

since when does a 9.6:1 constitute being a "bad high compression motor"?

i think he just means its easier to start with a b20b because it has lower compression?
