Noobie Advise - 98 GS

[SilverGS]

Hey, Im new to this forum, and my car.

So just lookin for some advise on stuff for my car.
I recently bought a 1998 Integra GS, 5 spd standard.
This car is totally stock, and i certainly wasn't blown away by the speed... but, it is only 142 hp,
all it has are a pair of AM rims, which are destroyed due to the previous owner driving it in winter,

What is your advise on Body work, Engine work, Audio?
-The engine is not a Vtec
-I need this car for a Manitoban Winter, so suspension matters. I would like to lower it a bit. Short of makin it off my driveway...
-i would like it to be a little quicker, so turbo it?, new engine...? How do the stock Integra Engines compare to the Vtecs?
Thanks

for starters...I/H/E...for suspension i would get something so that you can adjust the height for summer/winter

The Vtec engines are stock motors, they are just offered in a certain model, Gsr and Type r. You may want to decide whether you want to go turbo or stay NA before you begin buying parts.
