Revaping my 93 civic 2dr coupe need help.
Okay, I just brought this 93 honda civic 2dr coupe for $500.00, and it's a AT I wanna hook it up. I'd like to change it over to a stick, but my standard needs work badly. The body is beat up but not beyond saving and the interior could use a lot of work. The engine is strong as hell to be a AT, but I'm sitting on BS for tires and rims so can anyone help me with some ideas?

alright... this isn't what you want to hear, but don't buy anything at all. WAIT like 3-6 months until you have an idea of where you want to go with the car. And don't buy the body kit, you'll regret it soon enough.

Exactly what he said.
Body kits suck. I know, I have one. They scrape, they break, and the fitment is never going to be like stock. Fix the dings, rust, and other exterior bumps and bruises it has. If the interior is complete junk, once you are no longer a trial user you can find full interior cheap from people gutting their cars in the classifieds section.
Like blackcivic44 said, wait a few months and figure out what you want to do. Just look around on the EG forums and N/A or F/I to figure out if you want to go the NA or FI route.
Another thing you may want to do some research on is an auto to manual swap, along with a motor swap in general. You may want to just convert to manual and build your SOHC, or you may opt to swap out for a B series, or if you have deep pockets a K series.
