    Well nowadays when people are scrimping for cash, I'd suggest to keep your vehicle stock and just spend the right amount of money maintaining it (change oil, tune-up, etc.)

    If you still wish to customize your ride, I would suggest to start with the wheels. Changing the mags with aftermarket ones will definitely enhance the looks and improve performance (assuming you will also change the size of the tires to low profile ones with greater traction on the road).

    Matutulungan kita diyan, definitely pati yung mga ibang tsikoteers pero teka .... unahin muna natin ang gusto mong theme.

    1. EDM ( Euro )
    2. JDM ( Jap )
    3. USDM ( US )

    Sa target mo kasi natin matutukoy kung ano rims ang pwede mo ipalit. Kung EDM, hanap ka ng OEM ferio mags or yung sa Civic ES 2005 ( 2.0VTI-s ) sa EDM kasi mostly OEM parts ang gamit. Kung JDM naman, aftermarket na gt3 or volk rays copy pwede mostly kasi pag JDM eh makulay ang rims, yung stunning kumbaga. Kapag USDM naman, kahit anong silver na mags pwede basta malaki, mga 17's siguro. :2thumbsup:

    Kung ako tatanungin kung ano ang PINAKAMAHIRAP na pwede isetup, isa lang sagot diyan ... EDM. ;) Pagsource out pa lang ng parts, medyo mahihirapan ka na. hehee

    ^ Well yeah pwede but an engine conversion will cost you alot, kaya kung talaga malaki ang $$ ng TS eh magpaengine swap na siya to b16a ;) tapos, saka na yung exterior modifications.

    Kung ayos lang $$ ng ts, exterior muna then yung engine naman. bigat kasi sa bulsa ng engine mods eh, except for the intakes etc. etc. though.

    looks or performance?

    go with the performance first. assuming that periodic maint is out of the P50T budget, buy an aftermarket air intake kit (K&N) and replace your stock exhaust manifold with mandrel-bent headers. P15-P25T for these two. also get new high performance spark plug high tension wires (like nology or msd). P5T-P8T for the set.

    remaining cash = new car stereo (pioneer) and speakers....and you're good to go.

    but foor looks, you can only buy a set of aftermarket wheels and tires and lowering springs for your P50T-budget. my two cents...
