That's why I can't do circuits, until summer that is. Stock suspension and shitty tires.
I hope you get into it man, and I hope your Auto X trials go well, make sure to post some stuff up ^_^

What the hell did you just say? And hondas aren't big in Japan? That must be why Japan gets the higher performance versions and ours are watered down right?

Well, I mean if you've never ridden in anything faster than it yet, you're going to think it's pretty quick. In reality though, it's not really that fast, especially in the car scene. Loads of potential, but in todays world, 15.7 is not fast.

THIS THREAD IS NEVER GOING TO END LOL!

1. civic si is fast for what it is
2. is cheap
3. looks good
4. reliable
5. economical
6. its a honda

i know for a fact that civic coupes (si's ex etc.) are very popular in the US but here in the uk no one even knows what a civic coupe is appart from the very few that own them.

in the UK the civic in not appreciated enough, which is why i keep saying that is very good, fast, (positive comments) etc.

imo CIVIC OWNERS ROCK.

END OF!

Well, vtec is good for driveability and a good idle for my setup with the excellent Crower feel up top with my umpteen amounts of compression. I would say a 15-20 hp jump is not overrated but it is just what it is. If you have the money, go vtec. If you are going tubo on a buget, no vtec. If you are going all motor, you ain't doing s**t without vtec unless you have vtec killer cams so its like all day vtec. Compare an all motor Ls to an all motor GSR. Really the difference is apparent. One is better clearly but it is all the vtec whoring ricers out there like, "OMG, I'm gonna get a d15b so I can have mad VTAAKK. Vtaak is where it is at. My crossover is so strong it feels like a 14 sec car, why am I running 16's. My VTAAK must need to be lower and I need to rev higher on my single cam." It is the retards that overrate something. Pussy is good, but when you put it on a pedistal and get it, it kinda lowers what you think about it. Same concept.

I could as easily say, How does a Turbo help VTEC? it doesn't, A turbo or any type of forced induction doesn't belong on a VTEC equipped Honda engine in the first place.
You can easily say whatever you want, especially over then net but that's what I said in my post to begin with. babboso!

its overrated.
then you say to me is there a better Variable Valve technic in the world?!

only one that is more advanced is the VANOS2 from BMW that doesn't need the throttle...but still it cannot come close to 120HP/liter like on the Honda VTECs (I'm talking about serial manufacturing)!

ive owned a ls hatch and a b16 hatch. I like the b16 better. vtec is a great idea by honda and all their motors produce a good amount of power. Just people on this web site are idiots and say it is over rated
