yeah im looking to drop it in the 2" range. and i actually think the rims on there are pretty decent. but ill wait to see how they look with it dropped. a set of motegis (or whatever else really) may look a bit better in that case. im thinking about maybe doing the vtec conversion instead though. ill have to check into it a bit more though with prices and parts and what all ill need to do before i make a choice.

everyone keep the comments coming! :woot:

nice ride, its in good shape. Me personally, i like to build my ride starting with comfort first. performance and style can come later. So i'd do full coilover suspension, maybe some tower bars and tie bars, more comfortable seats and then jump into the motor. I wouldn't do that LS/VTEC set-up unless you're planning to completely rebuild the engine. The fresh more powerfull VTEC head would put a ton of stress on the old LS bottom end. So either rebuild the LS/VTEC or just do a B18C swap

it seems to me a b18c swap can be less money than a lsvtec.

well as much as id like to do a swap i highly doubt i will. then again by the time i plan to do the vtec conversion i may change my mind cause ill actually have the money at that point to do everything that needs to properly be done. so ill just make sure i compare the prices when that time comes.
but for now i think my next task is suspension. so i need to decide what will be best. ive been hearing a lot of things on what to do. half say getting springs and tower bars and all that is better and the other half say go with coilovers. money for me is a bit tight right now so im leaning towards springs but i dont wanna half ass it.

if you dont wanna half-ass it then go with a full coilover...not a sleeve type. You'll surely be happier! than get all your tower bars and lower braces and your suspension will be straight. The hardest thing about tuning the right way, is patience

do you know any place that has good quallity coilovers for a fair... or better yet... cheap price? im not dedicated to well known manufactuers with high priced parts or anything. so and kind will do really. personally i think as long as they do what they are supposed to be doing... and doing it pretty well... im happy. basically i just want something that wont fall apart on me ya know.
