The First mod I would recommend would be to lower your car. This will make it look much cooler as well as to help in the corners, After that a [u=http://www.civic-eg.com/viewtopic.php?t=10]Minime[/u] Swap. Basically putting a D16z6 or D16y8 SOHC VTEC head onto your engine, Thus giving you VTEC.

That Plus Basic Intake, Header and Exhaust(Refered to as I/H/E) will give you a quick peppy car.

For more ideas, Check out the DIY How To Thread, Its located under the "MISC" pull down window on the top of every Civic-eg Page.

Sell your cable tranny and get a Hydro transmission.

If you commute on the freeway or want to boost, go with GSR, If you dont commute on the freeway and/or want awesome acceleration b16 tranny.

They do sell Cable/Hydro adapters but they suck. They are huge pain to set up and get working, when you do get it working you wont have the full motion of the clutch pedel. Its just wrong.
