Please don't title threads that just say "HELP."

It depends on what you want to do to the car. We're not mind-readers.

some things like what...?

If the car is maintained it doesn't matter how many miles are on it, unless you red line the car all around town.

It has 183,000 about but it was an mid twenties lady car. Its in good shape for being an 88. I want it to be a one of a kind. I want it to be mostly peformance without a turbo on it yet.I want more horsepower for a cheap budget.

Fuck that, drop a B16 in her. B16 has a endless supply of mods. Might set you back about $2000 to get it done, but you will have a good 160hp to start. Pretty sure its around 135 at the wheels.

Also when he said "heres nopi" that was a link, might have caused some confusion. So I will repost his link.

Yeah do the B16 swap, I'll tell you right now we at Nopi dont have many if any parts for the 1gen tegs, I'll see what I can gather for you.

OK this is what I found....
Drilled Slotted Rotors
Stainless Brake Lines
Swai Bar Kit
Skunk2 INtake Manifold

Theres always the B16 swap. Link to the hasport parts. Original quote might be a little off, I'd say $2500.

http://store.racinglab.com/ac86inwedrin.html < weapon r makes an intake, and some people take the aem from like the 98 model and cut it to fit or what not. but i and most people are going for the hybrid do it yourself cold air intake. the hks filter fits rite on the end of ur stock pipe and makes for a good short ram which is what i'm using at the moment. but i'm gonna extend the pipe one way or another under the fender so to get more function out of it. pace setter, dc sports, and a couple others make short shifters. i'll prolly just go for the dc. but if u'd like, pace setter's is adjustable. they also make a full exhaust for your car. as for cams, all i've seen so far is people puttin in ZC cams for a little more lift..... that help more than mi short sentence?

This is the best option for you by far. #1, there's not a lot of aftermarket support for the D series, engine wise. And in my opinion, you'll be spending a lot of money and not have a lot of power. Even if you can find the parts.

Hasport makes motor mounts for the G1 with a B16 engine. The B16 has loads of parts for it and are relativly easy to find.

I suggest doing research on that and suspension. The G1's are different from every other generation because they have torsion bars. You can't just get springs like G2s and G3s.

I have found www.g1teg.org to be a great resource to G1s. We have a G1 in our family so don't hesitate to ask questions.

if u want actual power. he's right. b16 is the best way to go. and fyi. there's aftermarket torsion bars for better support and getting lower. and the bigger corps do coil overs for the back.
