Default 1990 Honda Accord 4 Door-S.O.S.! Help!

Hello all, 1st of all I would like to express my happiness in finding a forum this cool with this many cool people! Now, on to my "problem". I have a 1990 Honda Accord, right now it's stock but I'm in the process of "pimpin" it out for lack of better terminology. It's a four door & it's a baby blue and it needs a new paint job. What I've done so far is got some adjustable coil overs from VS & purchased some 18" chrome Symbolic XR-50'z & that's about it. Like I said, it's pretty much stock. I've replaced almost the entire front suspension, axles, struts, springs, bushings, etc. Now, what I need help on. I want to get some of those gauges that are white and or indiglo, different head lights, tail lights, seats, hp modifications for the motor, & a paint job to name a few things. But, where do I go to get the best prices and quality parts? I'm not some rich guy or some guy with credit cards out the gazoo so I'll be doing it bit by bit. I'd appreciate if somebody could point me to some good websites or shops here in Az that I could go to. Also, as far as exhaust, what's availble? I've priced the catback setups but I don't know if I want that buzzing noise. Is it possible to beef up the exhaust but not have that noise? Also, what are some good sites for car audio/video? The most important thing to me, the motor. I've been told to take the whole motor out & swap it with a prelude motor? But I don't have the time or money to do that. I don't need it to break land speed records or anything, but I'd like it to be quick. Sorry for posting such a long thread, but I'm in dire need of help. Thanks!

*Also, what should/can I do to the motor? What parts, from where, etc? Thanks.

Sorry for the double post. But what is a CAI, TL-S sway bar, AEM AIC, and when people are talking about ehancing the performance by adjusting the suspension what are they talking about? Now for the real dumb question, what are the different generation Honda Accords? Obviously I'm new to this whole scene to don't make fun of me too much please. Latez.
