You can run an OBD1 PR4, but just so you know a B18A1 will never be able to bar'd in a '95 Civic.

^^man i give props to u guys in cali. going through smog and whatever BAR'd is lol. here in hawaii you don't need anything. only a thing called RECON (reconstruction) when u lower ur car or put bigger rims on it.

I'm lucky enough to live in Canada in a province with no emissions testing (actually only 2 provinces have it and its pretty relaxed compared to most US states) That said its not nearly as hard to pass BAR in california as most people seem to make it out to be. Especially with something as simple as an LS swap into a '95 Civic.
