[triode12]

Hi there,

Couldn't find any information online about this...but what is/are the differences between the FD1, 2, 3 civics?

Just purchased an 08 Civic Sport, what would it be? an FD2 or 3?

I've seen some 06 Civics (the new shape) referred to as FD1.

Thanks for any info provided.

FD1 = VTI and VTiL r18A engine
FD2 = Sports K20
FD3 = 1.6 Lt Civic i think

fd3 = hybrid
fd4 = 1.6 L

I find the "search" function in the forum kindof annoying as it doesn't allow search strings shorter than 3 characters... say I just wanna search "Civic FD", they won't allow it...

fd3 = hybrid
fd4 = 1.6 L

you can search shorter than 3 characters. Just put an asterix at the end of the string.

i.e. "FD*"

Amended post. I think you're right. Googled and found this;

FD1- 1.8 litre
FD2-2.0 litre
JDM TypeR (FD2R)
FD3 Hybrid
FD4 - 1.6 litre

Some countries like Singapore have it because the costs to own a vehicle go up in proportion to engine size. I'm too lazy to try and explain how the Singaporean road taxes and bidding system works so in short, smaller engine is cheaper.
