T70 Turbo on the stock d series!
But really if i were you, i would work on the suspension first: springs, shocks, wheels/tires, brakes. Then you?ll know some stuff, and you?ll be able to decide if you want a turbo or NA car. I was in your possession 2 years ago when i bought my 98 cx. looking back i wish i would have done a USDM fake type-r conversion.

I agree, suspension.. wheels.. then upgrade brakes. Then worry about a motor
or performance etc..Dan is the suspension king on the site, take a look thru the picture posts He has his suspension setup posted as I do to in there somewhere. How much money do you have left to play around with anyways, if you dont mind me asking? |

wow, dude I am jealous. I wish I could of found a hatch when I got my car. unfortunatly I needed a car, and the only honda I could find w/in 100miles was a sedan, but oh well. I like my car, I agree with everyone, dont start trying to race every time someone revs at you, you will just end up w/out a car(wreck) or like eric said with more traffic violations than he has. Just work on your new car, maybe get a lip, or a type r grill or something, lower her, get some new wheels/tires, and an exhaust and intake, remember that still wont make your car fast, but it makes if fun, if you know what I mean. For the mean time I am just trying to make my ugly whore look and ride as nice as I can, because next summer I am planning on working on a swap (ls/turbo).
