sure why not? those honda engines are pretty cool to start on. I have a 00 acura integra it has a 1.8 liter in it. just make sure you get a repair manual before you start pulling stuff out of it.

i'd suggest integra or civic, both cheap and cheap to build, can be made very powerful for less than an accord, and way less than a prelude

well if there is no structural damage you can simply repair the front end with and aftermarket bumper...

how bad did you wreck the front?

otherwise the 88 si lude style still has a strong following. you can find parts to go on it and there are people who still swear by the box end years.

integra, accord,civic,crx,civic hatch,or prelude are all good cars to start wit to mess round wit.. jus bout any honda/acura they make alot of parts for specially ones from the 90's and 80's
