Mods for an 89 Si

[tellaux]

Hey.
I'm new here and I have bought an 89 Si (I live in Australia) about 3 weeks ago. I have a couple of mods planned but I want to get others' opinion about what I should be doing.

I'm thinking of the DC Sports headers and a CAI. Are there any CAI kits that fit easily into the A20?

Also, my car is automatic. Is it worth it to swap it for a 5 speed?

Thanks.

5-speed swap definatly
1990 integra cai should fit
wait a minute your car is right hand drive isnt it? the intake might not fit but i dont know

[tellaux]

Yeah, right-hand drive. Wouldn't the CAI from a right-hand drive Integra fit?

[buds302]

prolly
i dont know i dont own right hand drive. i wish i did.
hey question if you got a 5-speed is first gear all the way to the right and up or is it all the way to the left and up? over here in the states its all the way to the left and up but then again we got left hand drive so i dont know. always wondered incase i get a skyline someday but who knows it might happen :thumbup:

What gearbox should I go with? The Accord or is there one that is better? I'd prefer the least amount of work to swap it in...

[buds302]

sorry i was editing my post. nuthin but the accord gearbox will work i belive

[tellaux]

First is left and up, second is directly beneath...

Like so.

Is there a sort of 'guide' on how to do the auto-5spd swap? I've found a list of things I need on the forum, but I don't really know where to start...
