join the club!! i got a base model and a whopping, and sometimes mindboggling, 78 ponies under the hood
whhhhhheeeeeeeeeeeeewwwwwwwwwwww!!!!!!!

------------------
91 4spd base model
My first two civic's were std's they were really good cars.My civic now is a dx and there was a major diffrence in speed, i guess i was just so used to the std civic's.
Good job on buying a civ though!!!!!
------------------
Thank god for negative camber.
I just bought a Civic (90 red hatch) but I don't know if it's an Si (doubt it), DX, or whatever. I asked the previous owner before I bought it and he said he had no clue... it's a 4 speed and has no power steering or anything so I'm assuming it's the base model, but how can I be sure?
------------------
based on what u said, if its a manual then its definately your base model, if its an automatic 4 speed its a DX because the Si 4 speed automatic has power steering and in your case, you dont. So its either base model or DX.
manual = base model
automatic = DX

Thanks guys. Yeah, it's a 4 speed manual. No one has to know that though... I'll just pick up a shift knob from a 5 speed http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/wink.gif
Hey 78... do you plan on adding an intake or anything like that or are you happy with the current HP? probably gets awesome gas mileage...

i plan on getting a new engine alltogether, but fer know im just playin with it. i went to a local salvage yard and bought an exact intake & air filter box and cut the bottom of the airfilter box off (w/ a hacksaw then sanded the edges smooth) so it would be completely open yet still hold the filter
in place. it made my car sound a little more "throaty" and improved acceleration a pinch http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/biggrin.gif i did this mainly to save money and keep my gas mileage up as much as possible..cause yes, it does get awesome gas mileage

yup, another fellow STD hatch owner here. You better watch out that whopping 78 hp will sneak up on you sometimes. I'm hoping to put in a zc before I go to college though. Maybe that'll remedy the situation

I live in Suffolk, right off exit 61 (Holbrook). It's like right in the middle of the Island... probably around 35 minutes away from you.
