Default suspension advice

hi all
just traded this old beauty for a coleman minibike!




the rear drivers side shock feels blown or gone or dead or decided to head out ✌️

i dont really know alot about these old civics, learning as i go. i know the front is a torsion bar, im curious if anyone is still modifying these cars? id like new shocks all around but dont really know the extent of my options. goal is to build a fun neck breaking old car. i have an element for my daily, this wago will be my aint care project baby. would like coils, would like info, dont really wanna spend more than $1k for the suspension refresh but i understand these old hondas are hard to shop for. either way im stoked and appreciate any links, stories, pics, or info. its 2022 and most photos of these cars on forums have dead links to old image hosting sites that are no more. thanks!

Try asking on Redpepperracing forum. BC Racing looks to make a set too, but that forum is the place for 84-87 Civic questions.

You can start by grabbing a service manual -- these are EASY to get. That will tell you what you are working with. MOST of the parts that wear out are not difficult to replace.
