in the states people do V8 civics

those ppl shouldnt have flamed you on the forums

back on topic,
the difference between the B18c(vtir) and the B18cR isnt just power, it has basically been modded already at the factory - they have already done the intake manifold, cams, stronger internals and a better gearbox/gear ratio, its not just more powerful it has alot more responsive feel, you can hit vtec in 1st and have no trouble in keeping it their all the way through the gears, after driving the B18cR and going back to the vtir i would say the vtir was sluggish, even the EG with the vtir motor was sluggish compared to the B18cR

Hello People,
I come from NZ where the stated Civic is nowhere near being an endangoured species. I only said that i got shot down for suggesting the stated combination.
I think you should take the civic and drop in a type r 1.8l
just so there's no confusion. thank you
