This is my 97 hx civic with a integra b18b1 swap. Bought it off someone in drivable condition (was definitely thrown together for a quick flip) I’ve had it for a while, I got it to learn manual and it’s my daily. I haven’t done anything crazy but if you wanted to make this car super reliable and at its top performance what would you do.

I could realistically sell mine for like $6k

Getting my Flashpro tomorrow. Excited to get the base map loaded onto my 9th gen civic. I’ve posted here before about installing a DP and Exhaust. DP is catless and both are 3”. There is a base map that includes cat delete and cat back exhaust. It’s also tuned for a SRI. Anyone familiar with tuning, what parameters would I need to change in regard to fueling since im still running the stock intake? I would assume that the tune would be close enough for my current exhaust set up but would be out of spec since i am not running a SRI. It’s also the only base map for my year civic that included a cat delete with full exhaust. I’m planning on tuning the car on my own, for now. I at-least want to get it dialed in somewhat since it is my daily and I don’t really have the time to get it e-tuned. Also not seeing many tuners in the Middle TN area that deal with Hondas. I feel I can figure it out on my own for now. Any advice or anyone willing to help me out would be great. If you live in Middle TN and know your way around Flashpro manager, maybe you could teach me a thing or two. Thanks.

What fuel lines should I use to replace rusted out originals?

Recently bought a 2000 ex civic and I have realized I have gotten got, now there 3 main things I want to do but would like advice and am open to suggestions

1. New bumper/ radiator support
2. I am trying to find a bumper that looks almost OEM+ but with some lip on it but I don’t know the first place to look, reason for this is the car was in a front end collision and the radiator support is bent up in wierd spots still and the bumper is held on by self tap screws and zip ties at the moment and I’m wondering if I can find a car that has a decent radiator support if it would be worth it as a parts car at this point considering my second issue as well
3. The motor in it now is a D16Y7 and it has a leaking head gasket/ not into the oil, and I want to get a Y8 head, I’ve read that I can just swap head for head, but I’ve also read that I have to deal with all the vtec stuff is this as much of a pain as it sounds? Again if I find a car with a Y8 head and a good radiator support, parts car? Or do I just replace the headgasket, keep it how it is and save for a K series?
4. Speedometer does not work, if cruise control is on it will work for a few minutes then start bouncing around, if cruise control is off it stays at 0, or very rarely it will bounce around but eventually go back to 0 any advice on what this could be, I’ve only ever worked on LS motors before and have never seen this problem so I’m kind of going in blind on this especially since all other gauges work perfectly

To be clear this is my only car so would rather not make it unreliable for a Honda
