Hey so I recently acquired an 87 Honda civic off a friend of mine for $500. Runs great no mechanical problems and its clean.

I want to strip the car and autocross it. If anyone is interested in any used parts off of it let me know in a pm . All trim is intact and in good condition.

So my first question is does any one have a build tread for theirs I could get ideas from cuz I am new to the Honda world but am extremely excited.

Second question is where is a good place to find suspension parts for it. Non oem of course.

Third question is does any one know much about this car to give me a little back ground on it .. I know it's an 87 with a 1.5 L stock. I was told it was a 1500 s or something.

I am wanting to go all out on the suspension and tires and have a budget of about $4000 for the suspension and I found an engine and tranny I want to drop in and am having my local speed shop do that part but I really need help cuz I have never built anything this old or a Honda let alone..

I am pretty mechanically inclined so don't be afraid to be as specific as you can.

Look at skunk2 website, weapon r, tokico, or any website that sells car parts usually have suspension you jut have to do the research about what fits your driving style/taste.
You can look up on google what you want to do as far as a build.
"The third generation was released in 1983 for the 1984 model year. The separate five-door hatchback and wagon models were merged into a four-door "shuttle wagon" or "wagovan" sometimes referred to colloquially as a "breadbox" due to its appearance, called the Honda Civic Shuttle. An additional two-seat coupe style—labeled CRX—was introduced, noted for its compact dimensions and light weight. The third generation Civic saw the introduction of the long running four-cylinder D series engine including a new 1.5 L (91.5 cu in) CVCC engine. 1984 also saw the release of a high-performance Si model for the Japanese market, featuring upgraded suspension and the 1.6 L (97.6 cu in) DOHC ZC engine which was rated at 130 PS(118 HP). Si models were offered in the US as a 3-door Civic Si hatchback and the CRX Si variant with a 91 horsepower (68 kW) fuel-injected SOHC 12-valve engine. A 4WD engine with different transmission mounts was introduced for the first time in 1984, and later upgraded in 1987. It delivered a fuel economy commensurate with today's compact 8-cylinder 4WD/AWD SUVs of around 28 mpg highway. The 4WD system was push-button operated until improved in 1987 when the rear wheels would engage automatically once the front wheels lost traction. This new system was called "Realtime" which used a "viscous coupler" connecting two propeller shafts between the front and rear axles. The manual transmission featured a synchronized 6th gear, called "SL", or "Super-Low", which was used for high torque at very low speeds. The "Realtime" idea is still utilized to this day but includes technological improvements since the first system. Starting with 1985, Japanese Civics were now exclusive to Honda Primo, with variants sold at Honda Verno and Honda Clio. A four door version called the Ballade was built, under agreement, by Mercedes Benz South Africa, models were 1300, 1500, 1500i, and 1600i DOHC 1.6 injection" <source from Wikipedia>
