looking to buy a dc2 vti-r

[yesiamaturk]

hi i'm looking to buy a dc2 vti-r there are a few excellent examples on the market im sick of my es cvic anyway, its not another what should i look out for thread its more a mod advice thread....

well when i get the car stage one i plan is just CAI, zorst, lowered springs and shocks swaybars, rims are in the plan too and a bit of a system.

now this is where i am stuck with stage two of my mods i want to go for na power and noticed thats its a pricey.

i know this may sound like i am a n00b but i am use to nissan turbo motors such as the sr20, rb's etc. but for some reason ive always had a soft spot for hondas and i cant seem to get rid of it, lol, so any advice of modifications would be helpful and i do not want to go the turbo path, how much am i looking at??

any help would be apreciated

how much am i looking at??

it depends how crazy u wanna go man. i got a DC2 and i know that if i wanna mod the crap outta my car, im gonna have to empty a lot of money from my bank account.

the first $4000-6000 spent on the car is considered stage 1 to me: I/H/E, clutch, rims+tyres, coilovers/springs. that will give ya a good gain though.

fact is; its hard to build power from a NA car in contrast to a turbo.

Exhaust, header, cai, intake manifold and ECU should make you some decent power and net you a mid-14 pass. Add suspension and you'll pull a low 14.

$2000-3000 all up.
Not in the same ballpark as an sr20det in terms of bfyb, but all things considered it's not too much money for the fun.

[civic_mods]

save a bit more for a type R,they well worth it
even keep the R in stock form,will give u heaps of fun

It's more than just a bit which separates a VTi-R from a Type-R in terms of price. The Type-R's are going anywhere from $8k-10k more than the vti-r's, depending on age/condition etc.
