Default New to honda, and cars in general.

Hi, im getting a Eg hatchie and just wanted to throw out some of my idea's for it and get some feed back.

First off its bone stock 93 with 78k miles on it was owned by an old handicap lady lol.

Im gonna be putting DC headers, intake, v-tech head, doing a tranny swap on it, i wanna leave it single cam and go boost eventually, im getting fogs i got a back and front lip type R for it, putting D2 lowering springs on it, amber corner's, just toss out some idea's and let me know. thanks also i forgot to mention im new to cars due to owning a motorcycle before lol

welcome to the Honda game! DC headers are good just get the 4-1 header and not the tri-Y crap. but get a full exhaust too! i'd suggest a motor rebuild if your going to boost anything over 10lbs ( <--- and yes i will get shit for saying this this by other members...) if your going VTEC i'd suggest the y8 or the z6 obd1 head. and you'll have to get the VTEC conversion kit, Golden Eagle makes a nice one for about $200. and the D2's are badass!

some stuff i'd add though would be
NGK plugs+wires
upper and lower strut bars
a properly routed cold air intake
hondata 4 bar MAP sensor
AEM wideband o2 Senser
Walbro 255 fuel pump
aftermarket clutch

btw now that you own a honda every fucking car problem known to man will happen to you! ...have fun.
