    EJ8 keeps misfiring.

    I'd double check regardless, you never know if you happened to have shitty plug right out of the box, etc.

    Maintenance before school

    If they haven't been done in a while I recommend spark plugs, plug wires, inspect the distributor, check the IACV to see if it needs cleaning. If you have no idea when it's been changed last, I also recommend a tranny flush.

    CEL codes without a scanner

    I also recommend a code reader for sure. If you're in a pinch, you can short pins 9 & 4 on the OBDII connector. It will blink codes ODBI style.

    *New to this* 95 Honda Civic EX Sedan Slow build

    This. The fact that the VC is painted and in seemingly good condition leads me to believe that this was recently done. I can see marks on the block where the tranny was pried off, so at some point that happened too. I don't mean to thread jack, but :welcome: from Roclife, lol. OP - don't get...

    I would check local junkyards and Craigslist for some OE headlights.

    How much should I ask to get back on this overcharge by an auto shop by mistake?

    OP you didn't go to F&R Auto Sales by any chance did you? I don't think they fix cars, they're just a super shady auto sales place in MA. :lol: Right, only spread negative reviews if they truly are being a PITA and will not budge at all. At that point, they're truly being negative so the...

    Looking for recommendations

    You could always do what I did... find a set of cheap OEM lights... do a retrofit project (I used the exact same kit you linked to earlier), install, and then sell your old headlights to make a little bit of your money back from the retrofit project. It's of course more expensive than cleaning...

    How much should I ask to get back on this overcharge by an auto shop by mistake?

    Continue to be kind to the owner, but be very adamant in telling him you will give the shop negative reviews due to being overcharged. Let him know you will never recommend anyone to his shop, and if anything, will recommend people stay away and to go elsewhere. An owner who truly cares about...

    Looking to buy my first honda

    :welcome: You're looking at 6th gen Civics, right? 1996-2000 range. HX's are known for their fuel efficiency. If you want better gas mileage, a clean, stock HX is the way to go. It's also the least ballsy of the Civics, but IMO any D-series engine is really meant for economy not performance...

    Are these legit? D2 LCAs

    They seem legit. Notice the shipping cost. With shipping thats $135EUR... $146USD. Chances are they make the price look cheap to draw people in, but they pocket the extra from the overcharged shipping price. Looking at USD prices for those LCA's, I found them for similar prices.
