Sites for Honda Civic information.

1995 Honda Civic, new to me, where can I find info online about maintenance and care for my new car?
I am the proud owner of a 95 Honda Civic. I'd like to find some resources pertaining to general upkeep for this car. For instance, I think the sunroof could use some type of lubrication, but I'm not sure what type.
Also, the previous owner had installed many custom parts and apparently raced with this vehicle. I would like to be able to find out as much as possible about these parts, such as custom wheels (TSW), etc.
Can mefites recommend any good Honda message boards or other sites?
Thanks

Best answer: Honda-Acura.net is a good forums site, or it was last time I looked.
Unless it's a particularly well-done Civic, most of the modifications are probably cosmetic or only tangentially related to performance (intake, exhaust, suspension). Most people do it for the looks and sound, rather than pure performance. After all, most Civics have a SOHC 1.6L engine that makes barely over 100HP at the crank.
If you have more specific questions about the particular modifications, post them up. This question, as worded, is almost too general to answer.

I'm not much on Hondas, but I second knave's suggestion. I've found a lot of great automotive help online. In addition to the forum he suggests, I would just Google on the terms "Honda Civic forum" and see what comes up. Sign up for as many of the forums that come up as you can stand, post a little bit, and see which ones give you the best answers.

you may also check out the ClubSI forums if your car is modded. It mostly pertains to the civic SI, but there are some fairly knowledgable people on there, and they have a good newbie info forum.
