any sedan guys?
hey guys, im just trying to see if any sedan guys are on here. my dad had a 92 sedan that decided it wanted to split its block. im considering taking it and throwing a new d series and a 5 speed. also, my buddy has a nice turbo kit hes trying to get rid of so that will probably go on it if i decide to go through with it. i just need some inspiration before selling my truck for it ahah

Re: any sedan guys?
well since you asked for it 
this was my 92 LX went from a d15b7 to an all motor b16 then changed it up to a t3/t4 turbo on 15 psi with headwork before i parted it out and sold the shell for $100 (no front clip on it of course) If you are doing another d-series deffinetely go for a d16z6, as 92's are prewired for vtec so it's pretty much plug and play. a z6 will be a reliable daily tuned (boost is dependent upon the turbo of course) to around 200-210whp which will net you mid-low 13s depending on elevation and other factors. BTW, don't let anyone talk you out of it because 4 doors are "heavy" mine weighed in at 2,351 lbs. with FULL interior (power everything to boot) AND a 4 point rollcage.

Re: any sedan guys?
I purchased my 96 sedan in February of 2006 with 152k miles. Now with 205K, it is still running strong. Honda civics are great cars, you won't be disappointed no matter how many doors you have.
When I purchased it, it was bone stock. I know that it is a generation newer than what you are looking at, but both generations have nearly limitless possibilities. That is why I love these cars.

Re: any sedan guys?
Hey i am a lover all 4 doors.
My 95 LX Dragon Edition is great. The weight isn't really a factor as much as some people think it is. And i am also a lover of the sleeper honda's. There's nothing i like better than rollin up to a ricer with his ridiculously oversized wing, 18" Rota's, and bare bones Vtec, and roasting him boostifully with my "4 door sedan".........
Sedans are quietly deceiving....

Re: any sedan guys?
Believe me, I loved my four door. However I have always liked smaller cars and am most likely going to sell this car and pick up a CRX, but I am sort of drifting from the Honda scene.
The most annoying thing is people are attracted to getting rides from you because its easier to get in.

Re: any sedan guys?
I personaly love my 97 sedan. I ussually give rides to people and such so the 4 doors are great. I'm in the proccess of looking for a b18c to put into my car to get a bit more power cuz it feels really lethargic with 3 or 4 extra passengers 
Maybe one day when i'm not out and about with people all the time i'll get a hatch or a coupe but until then, the sedan is awesome.
