New, and confused about european civics...

Hi all,

Just thought id introduce myself, im originally from canada, but living in Adelaide now. Just bought a 92 Civic hatch.

Here's what im confused about...in Canada ive owned many USDM civics, all EGs. Have owned a VX trim, SI, and CX.

How that im here in australia, it seems most civics here are either JDM or European.

The civic i got has NO badge on it (has been repainted), and the plate under the hood which has vehicle specs on it is also taken off.

All i have is the motor code. D13B2 (70hp version).
ive looked it up and found alot of details on the motor, its a crap motor yes i know, but oh well, for my current needs its ok, until i do a swap of a D16Z6.

However, my question is what TRIM civic would have this motor in it? (D13B2)

Reason i need this info is to know the car's tank capacity, and other options it would have come with.

Thanks in advance.

is it a carby or efi engine?
If its a carby its a Civic Breeze, thats what they r known as here. Im not a civic expert but im pretty sure thats what u got.

Take it easy bro... btw theres an Adelaide cruise coming up next monday so if ur keen checkout the events section
hopefuly c ya there.

yes it is a carby engine hehe. so its a civic breeze then?

do you know if all EG's including the breeze came with the same fuel capacity tank? if so, it would be 45L right?

thanks for the help

Im unsure on the fuel capacity but if it is a carby engine then it is known as an 'EG3'

As far as i know it should be 45L

fuel tank capacity can be 38L too.
read it sumwhere. buh i dernoo what egs have the 38L

Wicked thanks for the help.

Just one more quesiton:
Anyone here have the D13B carby engine? if so, (sorry if this sounds like a newb question), how do you install an air intake on them?
Ive owned a non-carby civic before as mentioned above, and installing an intake is very straight forward. just wondering if it's the same on the carby motor?

Thanks

no i dont think you can fit any intakes on the carby engines

So are there any simple mods that can be done to the 1.3L carby to get a TINY bit more hp out of it? (excluding exaust, dont need loud sound)

strip the car out =] lighter = less weight for 70hp to pull

im pretty sure k&n make filters 4 carby engines, ud prolly have 2 go on their site 2 suss it out or order it. i doubt u'll find it in any shops.
