Hey everyone! I recently picked up a 2008 Honda Civic SI Coupe for $6500. I initially set out to buy a car because my V8 4Runner is a GAS MONSTER! Since selling my 1998 Integra about 4 years ago, I have regretted it everyday since. I have been wanting to get another car but things were not working out until now.
My plans for this build is to keep things mild. This will be my daily driver and I am a single dad with 2 kids so will need to keep comfort, MPG, and reliability.
Mods for the car:
1st Round:
- Paint red windshield wipers and badges black
Shifter Upgrades (Goal - to keep stock but make it better)
- SiriMoto Shift Lever Bushing
- Red Acuity POCO Shift Knob (Looks cool and to shorten throws while keeping stock)
- Acuity Shifter cable bushings, base bushings, and K Series Transmission Spring
- NST Short Shift Adapter (Shorten throws even more)
Performance Upgrades (Goal - Keep it stock and make daily driving fun. No sacrifice in low end power.)
Future Plans:
1. Suspension, Tires, Wheels
- Koni Oranges with Tein S- Tech Springs
- Energy Suspension Full Bushing Kit
- OE Performance 193 2019 Shelby GT350 Replica 18x9 +30 wheels (Have not seen anyone run these on their civic yet and loved them off the Mustang)
- Tires - ?
2. HFP Muffler (Still keeping stock i/h/e but get a little more sound)
3. DevSport Chin and Side Splitter (More aggressive look)
4. Sounds
- Double Din Android Head Unit (Use the ATOTO one in my 4Runner and it's awesome)
- 8-10" Subwoofer in a smaller box (Save space)
- 1 Set of Component Speakers
- Coaxial for the rear
- 4 or 5 Channel Amp
- Kicker Front Row SP
5. Who knows...
Here's some pictures of the car.
