i bought the car last summer. so far alls i gotten around to doing is puting in some ****ty insignia 6x9 rear speakers. an intake. a new deck. 2 12's in the trunk. xenons.and white gauges.

i would like to get around to gettin an exhaust, a body kit, better speakers,some rims. suspension. you know, somethin to make it look better and sound better without trying to make my accord into a supra. im good with the **** i already got in the car. now heres where i need help. im not good with brands or any of that **** so if u guys could tell me what brands are good for the money, im not tryna kill my bank but im also not trying to have the product **** the bed in a week. so if someone could fill me in on a nice looking body kit that im not gonna smash up ina week. some rims that look fresh but dont overdo it. speakers that willeven out the sound between my systemwhich is loud and deep.a good set of suspension that might lower me an inch or two and make my handling better. and an exhaust that wont give me that ****ty rattle.

 

We'd love to help if you leave the profanity out, per the forum rules. I'd start by using the search. I even gave you a head start! There's a link to the *working* search in my signature below.

 

thanks for those ideas. figured out the exhaust.

now for rims. Any suggestions?same for suspension? tein is the only company ive even heard of. strut bars? a good idea for speakers, and sizes?

 

for rims konig, enkei, ssr, motegi, ray's engineering are all good brands.

as for suspension your two basic options are shocks and springs or coil overs.

coil overs are usually more for racing.

tein is a good company, some other good companies are eibach, kyb, zeal, skunk2 etc.

 

alright thats what i needed to know.the one thing everyone has seemed toleave out is speakers! i love music and i need it louuud. what should i get, ive been told alpine is where its at?

 

Rims, rims, rims... 18 is generally the largest you can run and maintain some comfort, 19 is that largest I've heard of fitting, 17 is great for looks and a better ride qaulity. You need a 4x114.3mm (4x4.5in) lug pattern and an offset of about +42mm (lower will make the wheels stick out further (if you want wider rims), higher will being them in (so they don't look awkward).

I started wring about suspension, but I remember a great place for you to go and learn while finding some brands:

Strut bars: if you don't want to break the bank, ebay bars are okay... otherwise most of the suspension companies make them. The thicker, the better!

Speakers: name brands... Alpine, Kenwood, Pioneer, etc.

 

i'm not big into car audio, alpine is one of, if not the biggest name in the industry, i personally have memphis audio speakers.

 

see my only problem with ebay strut bars are i feel like theres a reason why there so cheap. maybe im wrong?

 

Because they're not name brand, so you aren't paying for a name. They're not the best, but they will do.

 

that is correct, you get what you pay for, however with something as simple of a strut bar its kind of hard to mess up. I personally have ebay bars on my car, are they the greatest, no but for $30 or whatever cant complain.
