Yeah, the newer japanese cars all fail suspension. Swift, Honda City, Latio, Vios, too comfy setup. when pushed, handling all over the place, that's why a lot of 'terbabas' cases now. Driver pushing past the limits of the car. You can't maintain 140kmh+ with stock suspension and expect to be able to avoid anything on the road without having the car fishtailing due to easy weight shift with the stock suspension.

Waja quite okay handling for stock car, but too bad they have failures in other area, The most notoriious is the power windows. Aftermarket settled the problem first before proton R&D fellas managed to.

LOL all kena tipu see VTEC think its DOHC?  laugh.gif
nowadays all the VTEC/iVTEC is for fuel economy not outright power  tongue.gif

One more noobie question notworthy.gif

I've driven the previous generation VTEC CVT City, and its power and fuel economy more than satisfy me, probably one of the best stock car below RM100K that I've driven.

Would FD1 (1.8) satisfy me then?

thumbup.gif loved the FC on that VTEC CVT City.... gearbox great for going up Genting, rev never come down... unfortunately performance wise not really great  yawn.gif

After that decided just direct upgrade to 2.0L DOHC Civic, dun bother with 1.8L...   flex.gif

Then decided what the heck... VTEC in the standard 2.0L is not really old skool VTEC, but economy VTEC... kena con by Honda..  shakehead.gif ....  So decided swap in K20 Type-R  brows.gif

sweat.gif

Agree 100% on the rev thingy, no issue of wrong gear matching, just vroooom up the hill all the way thumbup.gif
And FC...with the City I only need to re-fuel 10 days once. With Myvi, for the same amount of $$$ of fuel, 6 days kena refuel oledy doh.gif

But with $$$ (cost of purchase, FC, maintenance etc esp that I'm buying a used unit) an issue, dare not think about 2.0L sad.gif

OK, if it fits your need...  icon_rolleyes.gif

dun regret later... had a friend who purchased 1.8L Civic brand new several years ago... later he say he should have gotten the 2.0L because performance wise just not quite there. Later he sold the car when he went overseas for a few years.

It can sprint, it can beyond 200kmh too.
When you first upgrade to it you'll find the R18 very good and overtake cars quite easily, until you notice your car doesn't have enough oomph to overtake anything above 2.0 at highways when you're already above 130kmh.
Stock standard FD1 can go > 200kmh and return >500kmh per tank of fuel.

LOL! my story is even funnier!
Jazz 1.4 iDSI -> Civic FD1 -> City 1.5 VTEC  laugh.gif

That's obviously logical doh.gif laugh.gif

Jazz = young and hip cool2.gif

then, THE NEED FOR SPEED™...FD1 brows.gif

Finally, family man, City laugh.gif
