if its a 93..then its not the vtec model nor did it come with the factory b16 since it wasnt offered in 93..if its an si(d16z6) or vtec(b16) then it has rear disc brakes..

the body code is the for sure dead way to know. but then again having a dohc swap it could still be a s model with drums or s model updated with disc.

practically what i typed on the last page answers the majority of the questions you've been asking...

and only the Si and VTEC models came with rear disc brakes. S came with drums.

those rims came on 93-94 Si and VTEC models.

if its a 93, it's not the VTEC model because they did not come out in that year. just 94-97.

full coilovers are best but on budget coilover sleeves with good shocks will get a nice drop and stance.

I threw some old Tein Super Streets on my daily driven del sol and it's a blast to drive now

well, im about done with the headswap on the CRX.... took forever; so many snags and problems. The iacv is leaking coolant from somewhere, and when i rev the car oil splatters everywhere from the exhaust pipe (WTF?) hopefully i can fix the coolant thing, and itl get over the oil thing-all just in time for my thaksgiving break to be over, and i have to go back to school, ugh But at least my sol is back in the garage where she belongs

speaking of bird poo.

last week I parked my freshly washed del whip' under a telephone pole by my gfs house for not more than 10 mins. I left her house,walking towards my car when I noticed the whole passenger side of the car,from the front bumper all the way to the trunk was tagged up by bird poo.
