Default Success...Finally

I have finally succeeded in getting a civic! I got my hands on a 1993 Honda Civic DX HB for $1250.00. I'll be able to pick it up in a week. It's all stock except for a rear spoiler. Runs with 1.5L of raw power and 40 mpg until I put a bigger engine in. Talking more later...

i think im in love. put some rims on that and do some suspension work to it before you go buy another motor. what are you thinking about swapping in anyway?

I was thinking of a H22A because of the price. A B18C5 is too spendy including labor. I sold all of my tools when I moved from CA. What would you suggest for suspension? and tires?

the guy who sold the hb to me said that it had 17" tires. Does that sound right?

you just have the stock rims on there right now. if you got rims with the car you can post a pic and i can tell you what the size of them are, approx. for suspension it all depends on how low you wanna go.
1.5" drop eibach sportline, h & r sport
1.8" drop tein s techs
2" drop neuspeed race

I have pics up above. If they are 17", do I want to keep them or go smaller. I'd be looking for performance and looks.
