Default New "old" 1988 Civic DX

This is my "new" 1988 [IMG][/IMG]Civic DX with 47,000 miles. Bought it from original owner and runs great. Have only had to change the O2 sensor and the check engine light stopped coming on.
Wish it had just a tad more umph. Gets great gas mileage at around 28-30 in town.

Yep 47K, I actually picked it up with 45,900 back on August 6th. The previous owner kept all the paperwork in the glove box, it was a bunch mostly for oil changes.
There was timing belt and acc belts done at 31k, a set of tires at 15K and few cv boots at some point.
I'm changing the oil to syn for better gas mileage and maybe one of those air intake tubes.
I'm tempted to mod it, but I have other cars for going fast and this one is for going back and forth to work.
Thanks all for the welcome!!
