BAIC is probably one of the best group of people ive met throughout my stay here.

great starter mods, if you wanted some extra power along with that, id suggest uppipe and downpipe.

enjoy your stay here, dont forget to check out the weekly meets.

may sound retarded but what is BAIC? about the uppipe and downpipe, i was thinking about doing that but the problem is smog. i've ran into so many smog problems and i dont wanna go through it again. i just wanna keep my car clean and simple but at the same time let them know that this is not your orninary civic. no offense to the civic owners, i was one a long time ago.

How close are you to needing a change of tires?

A good set of tyres and a stiffer rear swaybar will do wonders to your cornering ability. Look at the regional classifieds

https://www.i-club.com/forums/norcal-classifieds-96/parts-come-take-look-may-part-out-too-133468/

There are usually a couple of sets of cheap ($600 ish) rota wheels with some part worn, decent tires.

The rubber touching the road is number 1 mod for me. Rear sway bar number 2, that's if you like chucking it into corners.

Oh, and welcome to i-club...these people are a really helpful bunch..
