Anyone know anything about my euro-spec civic
I'm living in the UK and just bought a '95 civic 5dr, 1.6i LS 5spd. I was wondering if anyone had any horsepower/torque figures as well as curb weight. I'm always curious about the actual numbers that a car makes - no plans on racing or ricing 
edit: Oh, and there is about a 1 inch play in both the accelerator and clutch pedals, would this be just a matter of tightening a few bolts or what?

the play in the pedals is easy to fix.
For the throttle cable....
the throttle cable comes right over the intake manifold to the throttle body. Where it is bolted to the bracket, you will see 2 12mm nuts clamping it down. Loosen the nut on the left side and tighten the one on the right until there is minimal slack between the throttle body and the 2 nuts.
For the clutch...
underneath the dash, follow the clutch pedal arm up. You will see on the back side of it, a 14mm nut with a little "**** adjuster"....loosen the 14mm nut, and tighten that adjusting **** until there is minimal slack on the clutch pedal. Do not over tighten this because that will lead to premature clutch failure and slippage.
