I have a 95 civic ex with 185,000 miles on it. it working good but it a little lazy though, do you people think is worth it swap a new engine or i can still work on performancewith my old high mileage one without having to worry from that it will break or blow or cause me much trouble due to high mileage or oldness??? and i have to spend money on fixing the side of my car since i got hit, is very ligth but i need to fix it and im fixing some rust that isgrowing near the muddguards. do you people think that if i fix this rust thingnow that it startingi will have no mo rust trouble on a couple of years???????

 

if you can afford it and really wanna do it....

 

what about my engine issue? can i boost it with haveing to worry of breaking it or should i sawp it??? orwhat else can i do?

 

your engine has alot of milage but if u want 2 turbo it u will need 2 change internal of the engine and that will cost u.is better if u swap another engine and gain the power from there..And the rust yeah if u fix u wont have no problems in years to come,well depends how u take care of it 2 ..

 

thanks you very much i feel more clearer now, though sinc in from puerto rico and things here are cheaper so change all its internal can cost me loke 700 buck and the engine swap i have no idea i kno it cost a los of money. how much u think i will spend on a sawp to a b16 or 18??

 

Ya itistotally worth it especially if the shell fo the car is mint. From the picture it looked really nice but i could'nt see your rear panels. but i would just try small things with the engine with that kind of mileage.
Exhaust / headers (Extractors) um...intake...running high octane fuel...nothing to crazy unless you wanna break the engine down and then re build it with new enteranls ..oversized pistons..heavy duty valves..but i mean thats 2600 bucks with the porting and balanceing ..plus the cost of serious mods when the engine is ready...a turbo set up is ruffly 3500-4000 Canadian plus the fee to install..plus the whole we need this part or it wont work phone call . So say another 600.00 bucks. But if you just wanna kill this engine...but slowley ..just do little bolts..don't mess with the ecu..thats my personal pref...as new setting with the ecu means...new ratios and setting..more stress on old parts. Bolt will give you that if you go turbo..exhaust..intake not really . just more noise....wow a simple question and my answers like a bloody
essay.

 

Sorry did'nt real whole post and just finished work...oh ya I am some what educated so if my grammer sucks...its all on my lack of sleep.

 

yeah thanks you haha my grammas suck too lol , so emm the shell of the car is mint besides rust problem are starting from the rear muddguards, but the rest is fine. so for uwhat the shell means??
all in my car look like new exept for the engine that has lot of weird stains and is dirty i try to clean it but i dont have a high presure water to wash it and you know due to oldnes when i take bad roads teh car have some lighti noises.
