Could be time to rebuild the Dizzy

Save your pennies and buy an OEM timing belt, or a Gates, you don't want to risk your engine on a shoddy aftermarket one.

How many km's are on that engine? Has the dizzy ever been opened up? It's an external coil from what I can tell.

I personally would stick to OEM, but yes that is the correct one.

Open the door panel and check your window mounts. It's an old economy car, gotta be prepared to deal with the noises and rattles.

Just get the one for year of the car you have without ABS.

Unless you are trying to upgrade your braking system there is no reason to change to a different model.

Your car did not come with...

I see. In that case good bye OzHonda. Good luck in your future endeavors.

Where did I say a word about the B18c*R engines? The kid was asking about B16's, and I posted to save him trouble and a headache down the road of having to move on to a different car or block because...

^^^ You'll have to do some serious digging. This is nearly 20 year old information now. Unfortunately, Honda-Tech has changed hands more than once, and their archives are practically nonexistent now....

Only people who can't turn a wrench need Type R. The rest of us want to go faster.

Here's some pics I was finally able to snap on Sat while out with the Mrs. doing that shopping thing....

Uhh, check Honda-tech. This is known quantity already that has been known for at least a decade. Gearing plus torque is how you get the most out of any setup. HP is just a functional calculation...

No what?

B20b $500 from Japan (Orthia Engine) + B16a* transmission. Faster than any B18c* swapped EG and a whole lot cheaper. Provided you can drive it well enough and get traction. You will eat one side of...

Unfortunately no, most of them were owned about a decade or more ago. I will have pics up likely tomorrow of the new to me EK though. I have to go out and do shopping with the Mrs. tonight.

Why...

No thanks. I've had DC2s/EGs/EFs/EDs. I will stick with the Civics.

Are you just jumping into it and turning the key, or are you letting the fuel pump build pressure and fill the carb's?

Hi all. :wave:

I am new to the forums, currently driving a 1998 Civic Sedan GXLi. So far so good, needs a bit of work, especially in the 16 year old suspension, and exhaust. Only a bit of cancer...
