I want to drive early 2000's/90's/80's shitboxes fast and my only prerequisite is having fundamental knowledge of what takes place in an engine and other components of a vehicle so I can at least diagnose the issues that my car is having. I want it to be a hobby and not a lifestyle. Where do I start?
Also, I do not have a sport shit box at the moment. Right now I drive a 93' accord.
I'd get either a pre OBD car (early 80s) or early OBDII car (94-96 depending on manufacturer). Primitive pre OBD and OBD1 is a pain to work on/learn.

Thanks for the reply. Are there any youtube channels or guides for beginners that teach the anatomy and processes of an engine and other car components?

On the contrary, I have been told that mid engine vehicles are difficult to work with. Is that offset with the easiness of working with a Toyota engine?
