Re: ~need opinion~ (89sicivic)
This is just my opinion, but no. Rather just pay the extra couple hundred for a different car and not deal with that headache

sounds like you made your mind up and are looking for us to talk you out of it.
if you dont mind the work, and are fine with the car, go for it.

Re: ~need opinion~ (SkoundrelUSA)
to the OP:
i bought my 95 coupe for 200bux and all it needed was a water pump and it had low miles on it
and had also picked up a 94 coupe that ran perfect with a b16 already in it for 500, also with low miles and even lower miles on the motor.
so if i were you i wouldnt bother and i would wait for a better deal. .
