TURBOOOOOOO:twisted:

Do you have it lowered? you could get some nice coilovers.

You could also build a motor to swap with the engine you have now, or modify your current motor. I came across this thread on team-integra,
If you don't have your heart set on more displacement, the permutations and combinations are numerous. You just need to make sure the rods fit the piston and the crank, check that everything will fit in the deck height of the block you choose, and calculate the resultant displacement and rod ratio. As a popular recent example, many people try a B16A crank (77.4 mm stroke and the mains can be align honed for better bearing crush) with LS rods (137 mm rod length) in a CRV block (84.5 mm bore when bore-honed) with a GSR block girdle added to give a strong 1736 cc, an oversquare layout, and a 1.77 rod ratio. You essentially build a 1.7 L Civic Type R Plus engine in your LS Integra that can rev like a bike.
Looks interesting to me! In the end its your decision what to do with the money. We can give you some ideas, but you will need to do more research on the options we offer to see what best suits you and your goals.

You should donate it to me!:twisted:

Joking aside, Its up to you really like what he said^^.
Are you concerned about your tegs aethetics or more concerned about going faster?
For looks, you can easily get a front-end conversion with 2grand, but you should consider lowering her first and get some nice full coilover set-up (Teins, Eibachs, Omnis, H&Rs, or skunk2s) the list goes on. Just research the ones that you like and make sure they have positive feedback from users and the manufacturer if you ever want to get some specs from them.
For making your engine better, I would invest in a good tune-up, which includes maintainance and a good set of internals and bolt-ons. Looks like you're already half way there; Here's a list of what I would add with 2grand just to give you an idea:
-Skunk2 IM bored to a 68mm tb (Don't go any bigger than that)
-Skunk2 stage 2 pro-series cams w/cam gears
-new timing belt & water pump
-all new gaskets, piston rings
-bigger injectors
-AEM FC
-tune (very important!!!)
-wideband

Those are just the parts that I would use, but then again its your car so research the ideas that we give you and go for the one that you like the best. Going turbo isn't always the best solution, that all depends if your engine can handle it and if its in good condition. And besides, you need a hell of alot more than 2grand to build a fairly reliable DD turbo. GL on her

Wait... What?
you need to be more specific. Do your own research then come up with a build and ask if its a viable option. Its pretty lazy to come and make a thread asking everyone what YOU should do with YOUR car. Doesn't make sense to me, but there are about 9000 threads with that same question....

tryin to stay motor i was just curious because i was told by someone like skunk 2 cams cam gears,to lower on coil overs and bigger fuel rail,and a few other things but i was just tryin to get a better idea to spend the money on to make the car faster with the money i have is all

Are you already lowered?

So you want to stay all motor?

Well I say to buy all this:
-high lift / duration camshafts (Skunk2, BC, etc.)
-high lift vave springs /w retainers (Skunk2, BC, etc.)
-I guess cam gears (AEM, Skunk2, HKS, GReddy, etc.)
-Hondata s300 (and tune it!) - This should be your final modification. Tune it FOR all the parts installed.
-Hytech replica header (it should make your car way more powerfull over your existing header, especially when tuned)
-maybe Skunk2 Pro series intake manifold & throttle body
-maybe forged pistons, or even just Type R pistons
-Coilover suspension (Skunk2, D2, TEIN, etc.)
-TIRES! (good tires to balance your power) (Falken Azenis, BF Goodrich g-Force, Yokohama Advans, etc.)

edit- Oh, you might want some bigger injectors to balance your increased fuel demand. Maybe something 450cc DSM injectors. I honestly don't know how much fuel you'll need on that setup...

fixed your post.......


First thing you need to do, is to determine if you want to stay N/A or go F/I. You also need to determine whether or not you want to go faster, or look good, or both? lol. And also determine your power goals. And most importantly, RESEARCH all of these things. Google can be a very valuable tool.

Thats a little over two grand I think. And if he's going to spend money on his fuel system, he might as well do all of it instead of just the injectors, like bigger pump, lines, rail, filter. But even then, he would need more money to do that. The hondata alone will drop him back quite a couple bills with a good tune.
