alright fellow import drivers, i need a little advice, nothing serious though. Unfortunetly I am leasing a 2001 civic ex, and i wanna do some mods to it. i was wondering what things i could do that are easy enough to switch back to stock when i turn it in, in 3 more years. so far im thinking intake and exhaust, but not quite sure. thanks for any advice.

An intake and exhaust would be easy to switch back, but would the dealer notice when you took it in for maintenance and stuff? I'm not too familiar with leases, but if you need to mod, intake and exhaust would probably be your best bet, and maybe a header too.

I dont really think they care as long are it can be put back to stock. I wouldnt do stuff like internals and stuff, but IHE, and some suspension you should be fine.

Intake/Header/Exhaust..Maybe some rims and springs for lowering....

on the interior you could do basic stuff like guage faces and shift knob and pedals..

Hope this might help a little....;)

put i/h/e...lower it..wheels and a 50 or 75 shot (zex..easy to install)to it....all items would be very easy to take off...and just dont use the nitrous all the time (once in awhile thing)better yet get a purge kit and just purge the shit out of it....

Go for the I/H/E. You could probably get away with a small drop too. And wheels- of course. Don't you have the option to buy it after those 3 years? If they do, just buy it if you get too carried away.

I say....Screw everything else and take all your money for a swap. H22 style. That would be fast to begin with in a civic.
ANyone know if it would fit.

My question is why in the world would you lease a Civic.............I would definitly look into wether or not you have the option to buy after 3 yrs. before you add any major mods.........Good luck!

Good question. I think it's a waste of time.

That's your best bet. The ZEX kt can be taken out and they won't even know.....
