I'll be getting into an 89 CRX Si with a ZC black top swap soon. It will be my DD/gas saver and maybe a little fun in the twisties if the mood strikes.

I'm new to FF cars, new to Honda, and somewhat intrigued at the thought of driving a car that weighs ~2000 lbs.

Any advice for a newbie?

 

Don't listen to anyone that tells you that your ZC is garbage and hard to find parts for. All lies! Just make sure you keep up on yoiur maintenance and don't beat on her mercilessly and she'll take very good care of you as well. And if you haven't already, slapping a basic IHE setup on that motor will give it some nice pep. Welcome and good luck.

 

I agree, ZC's are very underrated. Iv'e gone 13.5 on the motor on a ZC with limited mods. Very strong motor. Good Luck
