Probably a heaps noob question, and thats why it does in this section. Does anyone know any free websites that identifies the type of engine your car has with the engine/vin number?

Thanks

You can try googling. Looks like dougie did that for you, so be sure to thank him.

Of course man. Thanks for all the help! Esp dougie 504. Legend man!


Anyway, this is my car. So i'm just wondering if its a good reliable engine. My friend was looking at it and he said it isn't vti but it seems that it is now that its been properly checked. But yeah, I guess i just want opinions on what people think of the engine?

[dougie_504]

I think the VTi is a 1.6 litre (D16~) but the engine you have is strong and reliable.

It won't get much power from modifications unless you go turbo though.

But if you want to have fun get some nice wheels/tyres and better suspension and believe me you'll have a damned good time on some entertaining roads

Ahhh alright....thanks for the info man!

Well I should really take a pic of my car and post it up but at the moment you're gna have to use ur imagination. Its a silver sedan with 20% tints on both side windows and 15% on the back. I wna get black rims on it....can anyone suggest any good black rims?
