Hey, whats up?? I'm a recently rehabilitated DSM'er who just picked up his first honda yesterday.

I got a '92 Civic Sedan LX w/ 140k miles on it, and NO RUST. was bought for 1,000.

took it in for an alignment today, and wound up spending 700 on front end work. Car has a D15b? engine in it.

if anyone knows how i can get some more bang for my buck short of a swap or boost, shoot me a PM

Swap is your best bet. You could easily find a d16z6 for around $350-400 and have a much better and more powerful motor. Welcome to the site!

P.s DSM= Drop Some Money. haha Expensive project cars and stuff always breaking on em'.
