i just recently bought a 1991 civic hatchback , i think its a dx (im not too familair with hondas but i would like to start fixing my ride up and getting more fimiliar with it) , but yes so far its stock , one dude freaked out cause it has a 5 speed in it . can anybody send me the specs for a dx and since im starting out what would be the best way to make it go fast....( what best intakes to buy etc etc etc) .

 

Take a pic of under the hood and check the code there. Looks like somebody has done work to it.

 

hey you thanx for replying !
well here are pics of it ...i looked (literally under the hood but theres nothing there exept a sticker the says "green team" ) but yeah there are pics of the engine which looks stock ...if the code is on a specific location please tell me where ....
yeah i got the car cause it caught my eye ( the color scheme), the owner was trying to make it into a Sir replica , but yeah , it has a lil bit of work to it..,,

 

Welcome to the forums! if you are looking for an intake, just get one off ebay... you cant go wrong with an ebay intake

 

ebay huh? ! THANX ill definatly check that out!

 

Welcome to the forum! I had the same car as you til it got written off. Your engine should be the d15b2 which has a whopping92hp at the crank. Depending on how much horsepower you want will determine the best advise. If you are looking for just a little more umph then intake/header/exhaust is your route. If you're looking for some real speed then swap or turbo. If the later is not an option i would recommend reading up on a multiport fuel injection swap (mpfi) relitively cheap and definitely noticeable.

Good luck.

 

ahh cool , thanx for the advice! ill be defitnatly going that route with the intake, header , and exhaust ( to start off)as far as the gears go did the DX come with a five speed? i drove it on the freeway once i got into 5th it basically took off like a jet ( a small one...or better yet more like a UFO LOL) one guy told me that the only hondahatchbacksthat had the five speed was the SI , EX , and SiR then he added "but then again i dont really know i just stick to volkswagens" HA!!
