i also have another question. this guy wants to trade me his 90 integra gs with a b16a swap with about 57k on it. for my stock 92 hatch with 173k on it. i was wondering why he would want to do that when he has a better motor in his car. the oustide of mine is pretty clean beside the primer rear bumper. but his has lots of rust on his car.

He would probably like a clean looking car to do a swap in, which is exactly what you should do. Keep your car and buy that jdm b16 swap. It's the same engine I have that I bought from hmotorsonline and I'm happy with it.

keep your hatchback. Go with a GSR though. That extra power helps

i had just bought my hatch about 1 month ago. but ive only drove it a couple times because the distributor broke. well i bought my distributor and now it runs. but the previous own lowered it and its really really bumpy does that happen when you lower it?

also what this plug to.

They are really bumpy if its not a nice suspension setup. Like just upgraded spring and not struts. U want a full coilover setup. And that plug, I think its just an extra if you don't have cruise control. I think
