chcek www.hondacivicforum.com - that's the sister site of the mitsu site. you can also ask patrick he knows his honda's.

You change your mind about cars more than a woman changes her mind about what shes gonna wear
this has always been in my plans no matter what kind of car(s) i drive up until i get it. it will also be a long process to build this car b/c it will be pretty expensive. i dont' see why everybody gets on my case... sorry i change my mind so much but it's better than getting a 20+k car and then wondering if the other car would have been a better choice.... u just like to be 100%sure of what i want before i get it...

HAHA, i dont plan on it.... but it does need new brakes all around, and i went to change the front today, ive never had such a hard time doin brakes in my life, there not even done. but then again i was limited to 1 socket set but DAMN, its rusted together. i cant get one of the calipers off, and i got one off but cant get this bracket off the caliper that i have to save.... such a mess, on the eclipse it was SOOOO much easier, it was take it off nice and smoothly and replace. but this is a tricky task. good luck to me tomorrow when i have access to a zillion tools. lol

That engine looks like a variant of the 1.5ltr in my girlfriends old 91 Civic LX.
Just a few differences like oil cap location and alternator location.

hha you had trouble changing the brakes??? they must have been rusted all to hell b/c my Del Sol was the first car i've ever done brakes on and i think it took me all of about 30 mins for both sides.

i think all i needed was (after pulling the wheel off) a 14mm socket, wratchet and a flathead to pry out the pads. used a c-clamp to push the piston back in and wala. done.
