Looks like those racing stripes and that CRX logo on the back was put on unprofessionally... I'd take them off if I were you.

Whoever had that before your brother riced the crap out of it.

Get it running, then don't spend any more money til you get enough for a swap. You won't regret it.

Thanks for the insight. I got new spark plugs and i should have the ignition coil when ever my bro drives me to get it. Ima get like a B-18 swap unless anyone else has a better idea, if so hit me up lol. cause ya and funny thing i heard CRX from my brother stands for (Civic Revolution X) Who knows why they name it what ever its supposed to be name. I was doing some looking around it looks like I have the slowest CRX they make with the HF. so ya engine swap is first on my list after i get it running and get the front left body panel and the panel above the grill and a grill ill get an engine swap.

I heard it run tonight. WOOT. uhh kinda made it run on carb cleaner so not a true run but weeve now assessed it had NO gas in the tank so we put some in and then carb cleaner to just keep working out all the **** thats bad in the engine. Of course the whole time the cars hooked to my brothers 1989 CIVIC DX hatch giving mine a jump. lol was a beautiful site 2 hondas hand in hand lol.

UPDATE: After a bottle of chem too carb cleaner and 3 days of dry starts. today we weened it off chem too onto gas and now will run for 20-30 seconds at time. Problem being we think the carb is all gummed up and it would be bitch to just take it apart so. i dunno were gonna keep trying once we decide its hopeless then we will take it apart
