Default My 91 CRX, just bought today

Hello! Today i just bought my 1st crx, not my first honda though. My first car was 96 Integra Ls, i loved it absolutely loved it! I sold that to get a 86 5.0 Mustang GT which i deeply regret. Anywho

Its a 91 Crx not sure which make tho, i bought it from a very close friend for $700, not bad, it has 127k miles on a stock d15 besides in intake. 5spd trans, its flat black its kind of beat but it is my project and my daily, i will end up painting it not sure which color, i do plan on doing a b18b1 swap since i am very experienced with that motor. I am still a little newb with hondas and cars in general, basically why i joined so i can learn. I plan on keeping this for a looong time, i just got it and love it! Gas is great, handling and everything else is good!

(i have a [crummy] camera)

it definitely needs a drop, so if anyone has a pair of coil overs for sale let me know ill be saving up for some soon.

lol nice RIM!
Sweet Rex for $700
In Wisconsin? Keep her clean!
Suspension is a must! coil overs will get ya low, but the lower your go, the faster you blow the stock shocks.
I'm just saying - if ur gonna change ur springs, why not change your shocks to match, while your suspension is already off? your gonna take the whole thing apart again when the stock ones go, right? Less work = more zoom zoom lol

im guessing its still stock dual point fuel injection...multiport is what most people do first to these cars...as far as engine upgrades go...

multioint is part of the b series swap anyways. but for troubleshooting it might be good to know the MPFI conversion works before doing the engine swap.
