What are your goals & what is your budget for modifications? Are you going for looks, performance or a little/a lot of both?

Have a compression test and a leak down test done on the engine to verify the strength of the engine. That is step No.1.

Any local garage should be able to perform these basic tests. Or you could look around your local area for any car clubs. You can usually find someone with the tools that might be willing to help you out.

Please do research.......

It appears to be a 94/95 based on
- front/rear bumpers
- hood/grill
- color (not available 96/97)


Your motor type is stamped on the engine block (sunroof suggests F22B1)

- Get good suspension, cut springs are the worst possible way to lower a car
- Do all maintenance (timing belt, water pump, fluids, etc)
- look for the cluster removal/speedo fix thread to fix your cluster

Clean accord, from the looks as muffin man said, it's a 94-95 accord EX coupe

as far as performance, a H22 swap is pretty much a drop in and can be found for around $2200 on Hmotorsonline or cheaper if you look around locally, or if you want to keep the F, look up Bisi
