Not only that but the second you get the FI, you loose your warranty. Now I know that I dont drive the fastest car on the road, but for speed and looks, there arent many out there that are close. Get some rims, a drop, cleer corners, and other minor mods first. Once you get tired of the power the car comes with (since its a big jump already from a civic), then go FI. But wait on that. Its a nice car and doesnt have to be FI to get attention or perform well.

I really wouldnt lower your car with springs unless you want to go through tires almost 2 times as fast...unless you get cambers, arms, and toes as well...cause the stock cambers toes and arms are set for the stock height if you drop it your going to get an uneven wear out of the tires and its going to be a pain in the *** IMO. If suspension is your thing do coilovers, cambers, arms, and toes then you will have a sick set up..going to cost you prolly around 3500 depending on what coilovers you go with...that would be my last mod though.

Get something that isnt going to void your warranty right away, go with rims clear corners, and tint. Then wait a lil bit and make sure everything is running ok, break the engine and the tranny in and then start modding. I have heard of people modding the car str8 from the dealer then having engine problems and the warranty was voided because of it....sry for the long post

Thank you for the long post... The more info the better. You are right, I don't want to go through tires left and right... I'll wait on suspension. Atleast till I have enough monry for a full complete system.

On a different subject, When my car is idling, it's not smooth... I feel the engine shaking. And I know a new car is not suppose to feel this way... Do you think the dealer can do something about it? Or am I SOL?

Thanks!

I wish i had done that first. I'd say learn how the car corners and drive it the best way you know how, then make it handle better, then make it look good, then make it faster.

Long story short, to make the G any faster than it is significantly, you are short by a few grand, and I think you wont be able to appreciate the G as it is if you never drive it stock long enough and go straight into FI, and you might not like the troubles that comes with FI
