super88 Posted August 30, 2012 Report Share Posted August 30, 2012 this is what my SSS looks like now.. I needs the SS rims, finish my drop and a good wet sand and buff.. Im stuck on whether to do that first then motor or motor first then work on the outside.. What do you guys think? Performance wise I only have , CAI, Magnaflow, Vetter Servo and Custom Tune..

Muggs Posted August 30, 2012 Report Share Posted August 30, 2012 Motor first, then outside, that way if you scratch anything doing motor you can get fixed then just once! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MARTYW Posted August 30, 2012 Report Share Posted August 30, 2012 X2. Good reasoning there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_aSSet Posted August 30, 2012 Report Share Posted August 30, 2012 Id do headers, stall and a nice cam. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
f1ss Posted August 30, 2012 Report Share Posted August 30, 2012 I would do the motor. Those rims are probably lighter than the stock 20s. I like the exterior the way you have it, exact same way I would have done a SB up. Those z-71 rims give it a unique touch and I like it personally.

The_aSSet Posted August 30, 2012 Report Share Posted August 30, 2012 Lol its not like they have the same engine as your truck, they got a little baby motor being force fed. Get headers stall and cam and you'll walk all over it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
super88 Posted August 30, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 30, 2012 yes sir.. I wish I would of got into performance mods when I bought the truck instead of rims and sound systems..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JC03SS Posted August 30, 2012 Report Share Posted August 30, 2012 Id do headers, stall and a nice cam. This is what im doing.. Good advice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rickyrick562 Posted August 30, 2012 Report Share Posted August 30, 2012 Yup motor all you gotta make sure that looks on the body is the rear end cus thats all the civics will see from then on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
f1ss Posted August 31, 2012 Report Share Posted August 31, 2012 One reason my truck is completely stock, I learned never to spend money on rims and a sound system that could be half price a year later, and to learn the best build I can afford. Example: my buddy won the New England sound competition and put over 10grand into his jeep. I can now buy the same system for under 2 grand with dynamat installed. Another example: the kids little brother with the sound system tried racing a Civic in his BMW and he got walked. People with rims and sound systems blaring are prey for sleeper vehicles because its hilarious to walk them with their rims and system thinking they cannot be beat (being a sleeper imo is the best). All motor sir just like the aSSet explained. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
