what is your price range cuz its not like honda's are really cheap either. Most of the cheap ones go for around 4-5k. And you can probablt get a gst for about 1-2k more. So why get the honda?

hondas are a mistake to buy. just my opinion though



let me rephraise that... Hondas are a mistake to buy and "hook up" for a daily driver id take one but no way in hell im putting a muffler on that peice they sound so bad and they are still SLOWWWwwww. the Si coupe is nice looking for a stock civic and moves halfway decent no need to make it sound bad on top of it

All "V-Tech" actually does... if you do your research. You will find out that it just limits the amount of fuel going into the engine basically making it ****ing slower! Untill you hit a certain RPM it kicks in full power. It is beyond me why anyone would want a ****ing modified v-tech engine. Sorry... just.... aaaah dont even mention it to me! Dont even think about performing this abortion on a perfectly good DSM!

Vtech is a aggressive cam it is valve timing not fuel consumtion.

MITSU uses MIVEC same pricipal
Echotech GM
VVT or VVTi toyota
ect ect ect they are all valve Timing and I know it is just a more agressive cam on the hondas
