im 19 years old and this is my very first car..its a 1991 honda civic DX hatchback....its has about 140,000 miles on it...got it for $1000...i'll be posting more pictures soon..let me knoe your opinion you guys..thanks!

 

Looks solid and usual dents in the front. Keep it clean and stealth. Luck.

 

that honda is DOPE!!! keep it forever dude, theres nothing like your very first car, trust me, if u buy another car...it wont feel as good........i regret the day i sold my very first car--- 87 honda CRX...no other car has made me as happy.

and PLEASE DOOOO NOOOOOTTTTT rice it out!!!

bodykits, spoilers, hoodscoops, roofscoops, crazy paint job........

ur hatch looks sick the way it is, paint it white or black and lower the **** out of it

 

I have the same car, a Tahitian Green 1991 Civic DX Hatchback. And, I am also the original owner, 17 years and still going. I was looking at 2 cars - Toyota Paseo and Honda Civic - and I am so glad I bought the Civic. I totally agree with the advice of keeping your Civic rice-free. I still have the same engine @ 178K with a few upgrades - SI seats, JDM center console, 89 Prelude fog lights, SI rear speaker pods with aftermarket speakers, SI front lower bumper lip, SI instrument cluster, SI digital clock, Eiback springs, Motegi rims and tinted rear windows. I still have the OEM radio/casette. It's still my daily driver and work is 27 freeway miles, one-way. Soon, I will have add these: JDM sidemarkers, sideskirts, OEM mud flaps, 15" SI wheels, satelite radio inside the glove compartment. Great first car!!!!

 

thanx for the reply..ir has couple of dents on both sides of the fenders but after that,the body is in decent condtion..i'll keep this clean and with a jdm style on it =D...where part should i startd on first?body?motor?suspension?

 

Not bad at all for $1000. My first car was a '88 crx dx that i loved to death but unfortunately crx's don't do well up against a 1500 chevy pickup in a crash haha. Oh well. I now have a '90 dx hatch so all is good.

As for what you should do first: personally i would do a MPFI swap before all else simply because it doesn't break the bank in terms of cost and it makes a noticeable difference. Plus it will open up your options later in terms of swaps available and such. If you have any questions at all pm me. I'm in the San Diego area as well and always willing to lend a hand to a fellow ef lover. Keep it clean, keep it simple. Good Luck

 

I <3 that car... 99-00 Si wheels and a DOHC ZC with an Si trans... add an oil cooler and love on it for years and years...

 

Fix anything that is wrong mechanically, and then fix the body/interior. Then work on suspension, then work on the motor.

 

i bought this car from my dad.it was his daily driver before..yeah not bad for a grand..hehe..after the new year i'll be put on my integra gsr blade rims on it that my older brother gave to me as a gift..i think it would look great on it...=D

 

Any quarter panel rust?

 

no rust really...the hood has a scrape with a lil bit of rust on the scrape.thats about it...

 

keep it jdm

 

i love that color so much, im gonna respray my rex that color eventually. sweet car bro, keep it clean, i'd say go for suspension first.

 

another EF saved!!!

 

looks like a stock Civic...have fun with it

 

yup its a stock car..no modifications ever did yet

 

 

wrong!!! my first car was a 91 chevy pick up and i hated it. couldn't wait to get rid of it. however my second car was a 91 hatch Si and I wish i still had it. so maybe we should say your first Honda, lol.

To the OP, please don't listen to this, keep it the Tahitian Green. i won't go as far as saying it's a "rare" color, but you sure as hell don't see them as often as the others. and your's looks clean as hell too. keep it that way, and good luck with it. also, don't slam it. bouncy ride = no fun.

 

Do WhatEver YOU want to your own car.

My only peice of advice is to not listen to the fukstick that I quoted. Ever.

 

yea im goin to keep its orginal color (tahitian green)..keep it "green machine!" =D

so far whats good lowering springs out there for EF?comfort is a must for me....

 

yea dude, style your car the way you want .... in the end its your car. be u, don't confirm to anyone but your self ... live above the influence!!!

 

lovely Ef

 

OEM is way better IMO. Clean hatch

 

good deal...keep it orginal ....then do suspension and drop a motor...done deal,sleeper!

 

honda my first motorcycle!! 1971 z50. wow!! honda my first front wheel drive and first fuel injected car. bought last year.
