So currently my favorite car and my desired build is a CRX i like all the year body styles i would prefer newer but im looking at an 85. another guy in my area with an 87 but he wont get back to me (Craigslist)

The older ones SI is aprox 1800 lbs
the newer SIs were about 2100 lbs.

i want to make 14 on a quarter but i want a daily driver=) i want to make it pretty. but leave the body stock. the most i will be doing it tinted windows wheels and suspension for the appearance. after a paint job

i think my goal here is about 180 horsepower? i would rather not change the engine type. it seems difficult to do a b series so. would this be possibly with a d series? say the stock block a d series from a newer civic? im new to all this so i dont know how hard a v-tec swap gets.

thanks in advance for all of your help!=) and if you happen to know a price for this kinda of HP that would help=)
