Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

    Is this all you have done to the car? Many people would suggest catback.

    I suggest a legit suspension setup. Go read young one.

      Suspension would be a good thing to start tackling. Maybe a good set of struts with some springs and a rear sway bar should do quite a bit of good for your handling.

        What sort of tracking do you plan to do? Drag?

        Suspension is always good. Koni Yellows and Neuspeed or H&R springs are a fantastic combination. A good camber kit, followed by a proper alignment, is always good when lowering though! Replacing all the bushings with an Energy Suspension bushing kit is a great idea as well. A traction bar from Explicit Speed Performance is great too (see the Member Shops section for their cb7tuner member pricing)


        For the engine, there are still things to do. You have a header and intake. Exhaust?
        What stage Bisimoto cam. It's good to see that you got the best there is though!
        To take full advantage of your mods, especially since you have a cam upgrade, you might want to look into getting a chipped ECU and having it tuned.
        Additionally, an H23 intake manifold will do you a world of good.

        When you're ready, some headwork will really pay off... Open up the exhaust ports especially and it'll be good.
        Good luck! Keep us posted!

          Thanks for the input.....Yeah I had headwork done when I changed the camshaft, Stage 2 btw. Also, my dad owns an exhaust shop and I have a 2.5 inch system with no cat(later added a resonator in place cuz lost all bottom end ) from header back. My friend has a set of Konis on his crx and I love them!

            Koni's are a great start. Personally I'd pair nuespeed race with them.

            nuespeed.com and look at the cup kit. 600 dollars of pure win from everything I've heard.

              Rebuild the suspension, I personally feel its the best thing I've done to my car so far. I replaced every wear part in the front end and it rides like a new car.

                Yeah I think suspension is where I'm gonna go next. I need a driver's side tie rod end anyway, and my motor, tranny, and suspension mounts/bushings look trashed too. Not sure what brand yet. Also, sway bars or strut bars?

                  Progress rear sway.

                  Generic strut bars from ebay are cheap, and may provide some chassis stiffening.

                  High quality strut bars (such as nuespeed front bar, or esp bars) are expensive but of higher quality. (duh)

                  I'd say do your suspension with GOOD springs and struts. Replace all of your bushings or wear items as you see fit. Then, once you have a better idea where your car is, start deciding what you want from there. You might decide you're happy with your car how it is and your next 200 or 300 dollars should go into the motor, interior, etc.
