Default how much is it worth?

Hey, hows it goin everybody? Im tryin to sell my civic so i can buy my dads 91 accord which i am planning on dropping a jdm f22b in and doin some other fun stuff. Just wondering what i would be able to get for my car. Its a 96 dx. 150,000 miles, black exterior/ grey interior. Interior is in good shape, the body is not. It needs a new driver fender, front bumper, radiator support, headlight, and the driver door has some pretty bad dents. The car runs/drives perfect. Has 4 brand new dunlop tires on it. I have invested about 2500 just into parts. Thats all I would really want back out of it. Would i be able to get that much for it?

you will probably get your 2500. you can post it up on craigslist and see if people are contacting you about it or giving you offers

i'd have to see some pics first

and i don't feel like looking up what engine that is... so what is it??
EDIT: was talking about the accord... I misread... so nevermind


P.S. NGK iridium spark plugs don't really count as a modification... they're spark plugs! Also, the best thing for your engine is OEM NGK V-power

put a jdm h22 in the accord. id keep the civ as a DD. then when you got the accord done then think about a motor swap in the civ. or even a MINI ME swap or some more little mods.

iridiums is what b18c requires. me being a moron put OEM V power in and it ran funny(kinda weird plugs did that) well i put some bosch plat. 2s in when i put HUGE cams in and it felt slower with the cams and those plugs. then i put iridiums back in and it was pretty freakin quick again. its weird what the 3 dif plugs did.

ngks vpower are only good if you dont have any modifications what so ever, now the ngk iridiums are the best when you are doing a NA set up.

maybe it's a b-series thing

anything i've ever heard was that OEM NGK v-power is best to use
