does anyone know of a company that makes an intake for the STD. intakes for the si and dx don't fix because of their lack of the "air chamber"

yeh they do the same my std is an 88 also and the ractive intake fit it before

 

awesome, no better civic that a standard one

 

id recomend starting off by tossing the dual point injection and resrictive exhaust first off it would be better than an intake lots of power

 

its got a custom 2" axle back exhaust. Could i grab the injection system from a dx or something?. Im not real concerned with moding this car that much (as you can see its a winter car). B16A is on order and im saving for the turbo. thats all going into a 92 hatch.

I have an 88 Civic STD too..... it's my winter beater. I removed the lower air resonator and the tube that runs along the the radiator. I made a ghetto ram air from the front bumper into the air box and it works pretty well. It's been a fun project car though. I wasn't gonna do any mods but I couldn't resist. I have a CRX SI dash and center console, 92 Accord front seats, then 90 DX carpet and panels. I put on a CRX Si exhaust manifold and eliminated the cat converter and added a cheap Dynomax exhaust. The car is really ugly but clean and runs well. It is the off-white/cream color, but with almost 210K on the speedo it's proved itself to be a good running car!

 

i have 92 acord seats as well. but seriously, how sweet are they?

 

Compared to the brown vinyl ones that came in it, I would have put anything in there! I picked up the 92 Accord seats at a local salvage yard both for $20
I knew the rails wouldn't line up but for that price I didn't care. I put them in and had them bolted up with only 2 bolts. I'm in the process of making the stock 88 Civic seat rails fit the seats so they'll be safe. I think that the seats are really comfortable and they look nice in the car.
The CRX dash and console made it look a lot better too. I hated the truck style shifter on the floor with nothing around it but that rubber boot. It was pretty easy getting everything to fit. I will try to take some pics and get them up if you're interested.
