I'm confused, with all this models SI, GLI etc... how about I tune up the GLI, will it outrun an SI? LOL

Also what are the pros and cons of GLI?

Is there a way to convert a GLI to a SI (EG5), what do I have to change and how much you rekon it will cost? Besides changing the engine.

AFAIK...

Breeze = EG3, base model, lightest model 1.3L carby (and also came in dual carb?)

GL / GLi = EG4, came in 1.5L, the GLi being the fuel injected one, no other real differences to the breeze?

Vti = EG5,1.6L sohc vtec, sunroof, darker trim than Si, airbags in the 95 models, fuel injected

Si = EG5, 1.6L dohc non vtec, fuel injected, no sunroof, lighter trim than Vti. probably faster than the Vti

work any civic and it will probably beat an Si

pretty sure all came with a/c, power steering as options and power windows as options, except for the breeze

a guy told me tat if u got an Si, it's quite ez to do engine convrsion to B series as well, coz basically u alrdy have the "structure", seein tat Si is a DOHC, but as Lan said, vti has the vtec loom alrdy n its ez too.. :D

but im curious, y u want to buy a GLi n engine swap to Si?? coz tis gen of cvcs r quite old, n the engines might have high mileage.. so B/K-swap straight away is better IMHO.. :thumbsup:
g'luck!! :D

buy a vti, its newer and has vtak loom, and before you do the swap, you can already say you has vtak.

also has rear sway bar, and sunroof. and i think its got rear disc brakes, which si doesnt have correct if wrong ?

stock for stock there about the same in a race.

i dont know what vtec loop we r talking about, but u swap the engine anyway, do u mean the wiring harness???
get a half cut, do the damn thing, buy a GLi, even Breeze for god sake.
i did it with my Breeze, u need to buy EFi fuel tank fuel line, it costs a bit more cos of the ECU harness, i did b18c swap, so it was from OBD1 to OBD2a.

Does Si have airbags? Got me wondering, if it doesn't can it be fitted with airbags? How much would it cost? Ta

ok im planning to go to a B16a purely because they are more p plate legal in victoria than the b18c. Because the b16a comes in a civic somewhere along the lines; i cant remember the exact technicality.

I have a breeze that weighs like 950kg with out driver. 1.3ltr Carby; they are slow but will teach you how to hold your speed in the corner if you're chasing an S13.... (yea i know stupid) but i have had no complaints of my car; The Breeze's are more likely to have been grannied, as they the cheapest model around; so if you're lucky you can find a cheap well conditioned body; with a full service history and the most hardest drive its ever had will get when you test drive it.

the only annoying things about the Breeze, at least for me personaly; are the lack of central locking; the not adjustable steering coloumn, power windows(not so much). Id love a sunroof but probably better off with out one(as i want to turn this into a track car after i get a Teg(dc2))

they are quite a good little car; but wouldnt recomend buying a sloppy one as you'll end up with a slow pain in the ass. compared to a slow machine that you;re constantly adding little things to :P
