So basically I'm having trouble deciding what to do next... Here are the choices and differences in price

HID conversion ($150 shipped)
SSA Headers (~140 shipped)
Recaro black leather replica's ($400 shipped)
Drilled and slotted rotors ($150 shipped)
18" Drag DR11 rims ($640 shipped, mounted and balanced on my tires)

 

I would do the Seats first, second HIDs, third Brakes, and last Headers. I wouldnt bother with rims only if mine were damaged and if I really needed them.

If I would go for headers i would save up and buy good headers that dont make the car sound awful.

Thats, my .02

 

i say, an HID kit for 150$ probably isn't the best, and wont last.. so i would look at a higher quality one.

headers, i would get something much higher quality than SSA headers, unless you just want it for 'looks'

recaro black leather replicas? you mean vinyl recaro knockoffs? i would also go higher quality, unless you are just for looks..

drilled and slotted rotors. honestly i would just get drilled, better for your pads.

drag rims, i would get those if your looking for the bling factor..

 

Headers bro. Headers X 36. Trust me man, nothing will increase your N/A performance as much as Headers, or make you as happy for that matter. Then do your intake.

 

red, i know your drunk in all, but he is talking about OBX headers, not quality ones.

 

I'd do them in the order you have listed. HIDs are a requirement for our terrible headlights, plus it adds a nice high quality touch. I got mine for just under $150, and they're great quality with a superb warranty.
Headers are a great help for NA power, I'd go for them next. I think RedZ is a little tipsy at the moment, so I only half agree with what he said wink1.gif If you don't have a CAI (I was pretty sure you did) then go for that first.
Seats are more of a luxury, I'd wait on them for a bit.

 

One of my buddies has the same HID kit and has had it for over a year with no problems so I'm not concerned about that. and unless its for a turbo theres no way I'm paying over $200 for headers on my budget, Performance is nice but I don't own a lamborghini... My only concern with headers was making the exhaust sound shitty like socks mentioned, but like he said it is mainly for looks. As for the rims my front 2 are bent, but barely noticable. As of now I'm thinking, HID and then headers (but if they make it sound like a fart can stock civic I'm taking them off and selling them) Seats rotors, rims.

Edit: Oh yeah, I already have AEM CAI

 

when you get your header just make sure that you buy a nice long resonator for them to weld in where the mid-pip goes between cat and gastank. i used a 30" and i love the sound of my SSA header. i had it in with just the header and stock pipe out and it sounded like ass.

 

Thanks for the tip, I'll try to find one of those for cheap... I'm actually considering making my exhaust quieter now because as much as I love the sound, it gets annoying on long trips when your at 3000rpm for 2+ hours.

Bah, doesn't really matter, as long as the shitty stock ones are replaced.
