Just bought a daily driver and its a 1983 Honda Civic S hatchback.
Runs good and drives well, but I would like to know:

1: What suspension can the car interchange with?
2: What brakes can I interchange it with?
3: and finally, are there any websites that deals with the older Civics I can go to?


Im sorry for posting this here, but I have done the search and read all the topics that were posted, but none of them answered my particular questions.

I greatly appreciate it HT.

go to civic1200.com theyve got a forum for second gen civics

 

Hmm 83, so its a 2nd gen, damn i don't know much about those. 84-87 civics could be interchanged with all 86-89 parts. So hmm.

Thank you Stan

I think I forgot to add the underscore in his name.

Thanks everyone..if anybody else that knows about these cars feel
free to add please.

 

dont forget about http://www.redpepperracing.com/

Lots of old-school action there.

 

Learned quite a bit about these little cars through 1200civic.org.

Too bad as far as suspension goes, im stuck with either cutting the springs
or modifying a set from an 88-91 civics.

The good thing is that I can swap in the same generation motor from
an Accord or Prelude and get an additional .3 cc's of displacement.

I might just go with that route since I am on a budget.

Thanks for all the help.
