My buddy is selling me a 87 Civic Si for $300, a little worse for wear but I'm good with body work. 225k miles, all stock, seems to run fine. I'd hate to start up another project car if the aftermarket parts are few and far between. So far, I can hardly find anything suspension wise for one of these cars. If I do decide to buy the car, I want to first know what is availible out there for this car, i.e. coilovers, poly bushings, sway bars, brakes, etc. If someone could direct me to some good websites, I'll be most thankful!

If your looking to just buy cheap parts of ebay.. that ant going to happen you might as well get a 2g crx.

Thanks for the info! Come to find out the base board behind the drivers seat was all rusted out, took up the carpet and you could see right down to the ground. Needless to say, I will not be buying THIS car, but I did find a local guy selling the same car in better condition so I still MIGHT end up with one in the near future, "MIGHT" being the magic word. But these cars would kick butt in a AutoX for sure!
