ok, i'm gonna go ahead and be a jerk.

SEARCH

thats why its there.

there are no readily available motor swaps for your car. One motor bolts in (JDM Accord B20), but its very difficult to find and harder still to find good parts for.

all other performance mods can be found by searching too.

Well NXracer thanks for the honesty! lol ive been doing some research, but only find what other people have done to there cars, which is fine but i myself dont even know what some of it means lol ive been told i have an A20 engine, and could put a prelude engine in, but really right now looking to upgrade the front end meaning new control arms and struts,cv shafts, due to the fact i live in timmins ontario and the roads here are not the best! lol and i really want to keep this car! really nice shape i am the 3rd owner of the car everythings works, its had the rear panels replaced as its was eatin up by the salt i guess in hamilton! anybody from ontario that could point me in the right direction on where ti buy good parts for my car!!!! thanks JUSTIN79
