weighs only 2094 lbs. Imagine the performance of this car with a B18C or H22 engine and forced induction. I bet it would handle like a dream too. Time to see if I can find one cheap to build as a hobby car [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/IMG]

I know I'm new but I'm pretty sure the VX and DX both came with a d16 non vtec motor, the only difference is some interior options and stuff.

FYI...

In the DX: Non VTEC

In the VX: VTEC-E...fuel miser VTEC, no Si in there...

Falls along the lines of the 70's Civic CVCC, the 80's CRX HF, and the 90's HX/GX (natural gas powered)/EV Plus (Electric, 1997).

H22 would totally mess up the weight ratio in that car. B18C would be great tho

You can always get an h22 engine in an older gen vic, just don't expect to make quick turns anytime soon...

The VX is the best to go with however a CX isnt bad either.

and a B18C5 would be the best if you wanna go NA....it would rip in the EG.
