Hi guys, my name is Sam, and I'm a new-ish member.
I mentioned an EM2 last time I was on this page with regards to a build but I said f*** it when I saw the costs for everything. Instead, I bought a '95 Civic Hatch for $500 CAD. Mileage is unknown because the cluster was swapped but the d15 runs really, really well. Has an awful fart can and is down to primer (the previous owner was removing the paint to put some hideous body kit on it but he found the rear wheel arch rust to be out of his ability, which was covered by bondo). It's exactly the car that gives civics the ricer title.
Anyway, on to the good. Body really doesn't have all that much rust considering what I paid for it. Driver's side is pretty clean but the passenger's side has a large portion of the wheel arch missing due to the rust and the previous owner just cutting it all out (about 4 inches out from the taillight and about 3 inches up). Other than that, it's super clean. It also looks to have leather front and rear seats, from which I'm guessing would be an Integra. Plastic was painted from grey to black and actually looks okay. I don't plan on keeping the d15 in it but it really does run phenomenally.
I apologize for being all over the place here. I'm not really commenting here looking for opinions. It's really more for networking, and possibly finding people that I can ask more important questions when I need to. If anyone is curious, I can show my build plan.
