ok thanks for input,
im actually wanting to buy a samshed honda from the auctions,
can u tell me which model would fit, i no the integras that the b-series
engines

yea its funny that my model vti doesnt have vtec, i was speaking to a mate, he bought a 95 vti(which is vtec) and he kept telling me that mine was vtec and i was sure it wasnt, and he had a look and there was no vtec, and he told me when he was looking at buying a honda vti, he couldnt work out y his 95 civic vti and the 97 vti had a 40+kw difference

thanks

ok also im discussing with my dad, if i decide to get a b18c engine, would it fit the gear box, my dad reacons that the his model civic was released with some top class gear box, and if we dropped in a vtec you would need to replace the gear box thanks
