1996 Civic 4dr LX

hi, i just bought a 96 civic lx and i dont know much about cars and i was wondering if anyone knew about some books i can buy or forums i can go to. my car doesnt look good but that is what i wanted. Cause i want to make it look good. Any advice on car maintenance would help. thanks.

I'll tell you what I tell everyone. You found a great site, now just search and you'll find everything you wanna know. If you're serious about performance then go to www.honda-tech.com and search around there, you'll find more than you need to know.

i have a 97 4 door lx...

this site is great for knowledgte and as far as parts and what not ppl rag on it but i think ebay is a great spot and has worked for me 95% of the time....

If you want to learn how to do basic mantineance yourself, go out and buy a Hanes Manual (Civic 1996-2000). It costs around $15 and is great for first timers learning about car mantineance & repair. This forum is also one of the best places to ask questions and get answers - the SEARCH function works wonders too.

Screw a haynes...spend the $$ and get a Helms. A Helms is a factory repair manual and MUCH more in-depth than a Haynes. First mod should be to buy a helms.

As for books...there are quiet a few I can recommend. I'll post some up for you when I'm not in such a hurry.
