"noob question inside" 1990 civic hatch
 
i was looking in to getting a civic to play with and i found a 1990 civic hatch with a blown head gasketfor $500 with a 5 speed is it worth it?
howmuch will it cost for the new head gasket?
and is this a good foundation for a future turbo build?

Yea it's fine and a good deal if the body is in decent shape. Replace the headgasket with an MLS one from a Y8, they cost around $25-30. You'll also want to do a MPFI swap if it's a DPFI civic. Then slap a turbo on that bitch and have some fun.

yeah to bad the guy sold it before i could get ahold of him (found it on craigslist) but i have been eyeing up a 1994 civic coupe that some old lady owned since new for $1200 (only 93xxx miles, and a 5speed, or a 1993 sedan with an h22 swap i found for $1500 (the sedan is nice but it has a body kit and i hate body kits they are so ricer)
