New Project 97 Prelude.
Just picked this up right before Christmas, got it for 1500 bucks. Figure Im going to start rebuilding this soon, so im beginning a forum here to so my progress along the way.
This is going to be my first h22 build, had 2 other d16 builds in the past. If anyone has any opinions on some parts and etc they have used on their build feel free to let me know about them. My current budget for this build is around 8500. Still debating if i want to stay N/A or Boosted.
Interior pictures are coming soon when its not raining outside.
Upcoming plans removing old tint and a Alarm since my civic was recently stolen over thanksgiving : /.

^ lol.
OP, nice find for $1500. As Pirate mentioned, you need to set some goals and have some strong ideas before you just start spending money. $8500 is a nice chunk to work with, but it can and will go fast, especially if you're not watching carefully where it all goes.
Start off by figuring out what needs to get done, then determine what you want to do. That header and exhaust you just bought is worthless if you decide you want to go turbo for instance.
And of course, RESEARCH, RESEARCH, RESEARCH. There's a lot of BS to dig through on these forums, but there is also a lot of really good information buried in it. Spend time searching and reading and you will learn a lot. Google is your friend.
Congrats and good luck.
