[1OPL2C]

hey guys..

i'v neva owned a honda before..
and i'm liking the crx gen 3.. looks great for a run around car..

want to ask if they are all vtec? in the tradingpost some say vtec and some dont.. how can you tell if its a vtec or not?

thanks

all the aussie GEN 3 are dohc vtec

u can tell when u look at the engine it was say VTEC across the rocker cover..

^^^^ Correct ^^^^

We did also get some imported models from Singapore which had the SOHC Vtec motors - but very rarely. You will be easily able to tell the difference - simple size difference in the rocker covers.

But 99.5% of the time its a DOHC Vtec..

I've also seen an automatic one for sale as well. This was probably an import from somewhere and I believe it was SOHC non-vtec.

But like sinistr said, 99.5% of them are DOHC Vtec, you only get the odd one that wasn't aus delivered.

all aussie delivered were dohc VTEC and had the manual targa tops
it should look like this if its a dohc VTEC and should be stamped b16a2

Even the auto Gen 3 CRX's are a B16a2 DOHC VTEC engine...
