gut the crap of ov your civic to make it lighter meaning take out the passenger seat, rear seats, panels, etc....replacing your OEM hood with a carbon hood can make it loose about 10-15 pounds...not sure of the exact weight on them but you can always search and find out for your self....

Well if you are going to try to stay CARB legal you'll have a hell of a time keeping up with any Supra. At any rate, if it's OBD2 you'll need O2 sensors before and after the cat.

that link is at the very top of the forum...it'll help with lots of things...if you go under SPECIFICATION
you'll find
https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=150315 (EG Hatchback weights)
and in there you'll see that
1992 Honda Civic:

CX hatchback: 2094lbs.
VX hatchback: 2094lbs.
DX hatchback: 2178lbs.
Si hatchback: 2326lbs.

So that's the weights of each vehicle STOCK.
