91-95 Cars, having a non OBD2 are kinda harder to datalog with most of the commercial readers unless you got a specialized product or a really good and expensive solution, but with this you will be able to log your car and build this cable with less than 20 dollars.

You will need:

FTDI Serial to USB cable.
