Default new to civics, give me a little more info on what i just bought?

yesterday i payed 150 dollars for a 1994 civic, title in hand completely legit.

all the wiring for the dash is shot, and has to be replaced, it needs a new windshield and a new drivers side door.

other than that, the car runs good, it seems fast but its not registered yet so idk what it can do, here's some pictures so tell me what im working with if you know. i dont know much about 4 cly. im used to big block v8s

wow, all i can say wow..
$150 dollars are you kidding me? nice buy
you do know sooner or later your going to get pulled for having no rear lights.
what year is your car?
you can start by removing your hideous body kit (new fenders,front end, rear end)
maybe a nice tune-up, go to a junkyard find your other door..
all in all, very nice find man.

the lights are there, i said the same thing about them, but where i live (tx) its legal because there are leds under the fiber glass that can be seen clearly even during the day.

i dont really like the body kit either, it gives it that teenage kid in a ricer look lol.

can you tell me anything about the engine? the model number is d16z6.



and its a 94

Definitely a good deal. +1 on removal of the body kit. Just wondering, he said it was d16z6, but the plugs are in the back so a non-vtec d15b7, or a d16 block with d15 head?
