Starting Mods on my 1991 LX, need some advice

[funkdaddysmack]

BP engine + custom manifold + larger injectors/pump + t3/t4 hybrid + haltech + 3" exhaust + boost controller + ACT clutch + LSD + mazdaspeed struts + whatever brand springs + darryl's suspension goodies + nice 15", 16", 17" wheels (your choice) + falken azenis + nice seats + Short throw shifter

Whatever is leftover, buy a cheap used motorcylce and still be faster

so my mom had the car looked over by a mechanic friend of the family to see if it would even hold together after we put the money into it. And the bastard managed to convince her that a jasper motor would be best. It sucks but the warranty is worth it IMO. I'm going with the mazdaspeed struts and h&r springs from corksport. we'll see how much money is left over after they're in the car...

i'd rather do a BPT swap than a KLZE swap if I had to do it again.

BPT = 950 plus shipping including ecu and harness from alljapaneseengines.com
Installation maybe costs 1000-1500
other bull**** you might need to get motor running = ~800

then get some rims w/tires = 800-1000
lower the car w/struts = 400ish
MX3 seats = 50-100

After that, your car will be pretty pimp

buy a 12 second 5.0

the lx is nothing compared to what you see there.

I about **** my pants when I saw that. Damn nice find. Everyone has give you good ideas, best thing to do is decide what you want as far as what purpose the car will serve to you. Wether it be AutoX, Daily driver, or track car.
