Since  I got the car I've put a little time and money into it to try and get it how I want it. It's deffinitely a labour of love. It's not quite there yet, but I'm working on it. Here's a list of my current mods.

Cold Air Intake: Bomz CAI with K&N Filter
Intake Manifold: Skunk2 Pro Series (installed after pics were taken)
Header: DC Sport Ceramic 4-2-1
High-Flow Cat: Magnaflow High-Flow Cat (94065)
Cat-back Exhaust: Tsudo Type-X (EVO II style) 2.5” mandrel
Short Shifter: Meagan Racing SS
Clutch: F1 Racing Stage 1 Racing Clutch
Flywheel: F1 Racing 8.5lbs flywheel
X-Drilled Rotors/CF Pads: KVR X-Drilled Rotors & CF Pads
Rims: SiR 15”
Tires: Toyo Proxy FZ-4 205/55/15
Winter Tires: Nordic
Shift Boot: JDM 95-00 Civic Type R Shift Boot EK9
Shift Knob: RAZO RA68 Black Leather/Red Stitching
E-Brake Boot: Civic Type-R Black Leather/Red Stitching
E-Brake Handle: Chrome/Carbon Fibre
Front Speakers: Clarion
SRR
1325 5.25”
Rear Speakers: Clarion
SRR
6935 6x9”
Amplifier: 400w Pyle
Deck: Pioneer DEH-3400
CD Changer: JVC CH-X1500RF CD/MP3
Alarm: Autopage
OBD1 ECU: Needs to be chipped
OBD2 to OBD1 Harness: Waiting for ECU to be chipped                                                          Type-R Front Lip: Teknotik (www.teknotik.com)

I've been thinking long and hard about what I want to do next... Should I go turbo, or keep up with my build and make an impressive N/A y8? Either way, I'll have a lot of fun with it.

Ultimately at some point, I plan on turning my '96 Si into a track car for circuit racing. Here's a few mod options I have in mind:

Turbo Kit  OR
d16a6 pistons - up the compression to 10-11:1
Port and polish 
Rear Upper Strut Bar
Front Lower Tie Bar
Full Coilovers (Adj. Damp.)
Aluminium Radiator
ARP Head Studs (208-4305)

This little project started just over 2 years ago. The next 2 should be fun.
