welcome to the forum. You purchased Honda's hot rod at that time of 1987. normally aspirated engine. if you want to soup up that car, it would be to replace the engine, unless you plan to keep the stock engine and change cams for more performance or add a turbo. i'd keep it as it is, its already a good performing car.

Welcome in, I agree with 52, those were some good looking well performing cars in the day, wax it and change the fluids.
