Okay so ive started a spreadsheet to list parts i would like to buy and there prices but i cant think of anything else so i thought id ask you guys..

Post your must have item for your civics and post pics if you can (also price if possible)

Wheels, Lips, interior, exterior... you name it, list it

:jackson:
 
For me got to be
Gearset- 600ish
Plate lsd - 400-1000ish
Sticky tyres- 400ish
List could probably go on lol
 
Lightened Flywheel
Good Coilovers
Good tyres
Decent wheels

Bodywork sorted before modding commences, I find too many people get excited and jump into modding and end up with a dog plastered with shiny bits. (Excludes proper functional car's)

If I had an EK9, I'd probably go much the same route as my EK4.

AD08s
Spoon Suspension

That would probably be it actually.

Some sticky rubber - ad08?
Roll cage and helmet
Some good harnesses
Fixed bucket seats
Carbon or fibreglass bonnet / doors / bootlid
 
Buy spoon high lift cams and cam gears and make them sit in a box wrapped up :)
 
You have an EJ9 right? Personally i'd just do minimal mods to keep you happy then save for an EK4/EK9. Once you've B-swapped it, insured it properly and done the mods to get it to the level to a 4/9, thats a lot of money you'll never get back, and buying a 4/9 would work out cheaper. Thats one of the reason's I'd never engine swap my car.

Thats my opinion, I've spent too much money on an EJ9 and partially regret it haha.

Mines is lowered, exhaust, rebushed, short shifter, wheels, decent tyres and thats all you really need to have a bit of fun. Done loads of other things too, but those are the things that have made the biggest difference in terms of enjoying driving the car. Oh, and recaro's haha.

Sticky tyres, discs and pads, a good set of coilovers and headlight protectors which i cant find any where. Even tried the company that produced them for Honda. Who can help but need to order 800 sets!!!:blabla: if u have some, cash waiting.:))
