not all VTECs are performance VTECs... theres more to just performance for the VTEC system

engines like the D15B the VTECs are meant more towards fuel consumption with a slight increase of power.

owh ok.. so that means EG9 are better at speed?

if performance is wat u want... u need to look at the DOHC VTECs... not SOHC.

especially the B and K series. H n F are also pretty good engines though not as popular as the B n K series


and original EG9 comes with B16A...so yes to ur question

this is an A-B car.
good for ladies and guys.

here is a little guideline in general about honda engines.

3-stage SOHC VTEC = fuel efficient
3-stage DOHC VTEC = performance engine

FYI the hybrid models use 3-stage vtec too but is sohc....so u get what i mean?

if u want the KING of B series either go for B16A (EK4) or B16B (EK9)...happy hunting

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honda_B_engine

the hatchback civic type R not available in Malaysia wan is it?

i hardly think the B16s are "KING"s of B series....

the B18C Type R is a better platform (no replacement for displacement)...even the B18C GSR is a very good platform even with its slightly different head configuration.

and lets not forget the B20B hybrids.

and FYI.. Hondata can only be installed onto OBD1 ECUs... aka EG ECUs

talking about type r

heres one type r that came to get the daytime running light installed thxs to one of our bro

one question to fd owners... does the car comes with alarm? i ve been trying to hear how does the alarm sound but so far my car doesnt make a sound.. and ive try forced open from inside also no sound....

Lol, try entering your car. Use remote lock yourself in. Wait awhile and start dancing See whether the "immobilizer" will detect you, if it did the car alarm will sound haha!

Not immobilizer, the ultrasonic sensor... Lock yourself inside the car with remote, after 30 secs try move a bit... The alarm will sound

UKDM Civic Type R.. so its recond?

Sh@rty 5 = peracunn!!

EK9 or EP3?
both not officially available.
btw king of the b series for civic lah....b18 and b20 not inside civic oso....this is civic thread rite?

no open/close door sound.
but the alarm sound for alert is the same as other honda models.

bro madman gave me the model already.. its the fn2 i was talking about. i tot that is a civic model..

The FN2 is the Euro Type R model...

finally i can hear his voice for the first time...

by the way what is the difference between type r bodykit and normal mugen? im planning to change the kit, and the shop quote me this 2, type r rm 1200 without paint job,include front bumper,rear bumper spoiler , mugen rm 1700 all included...which one better?any disadvantages to my fd1 if i change to either one of this kit? my car 3 months old.... still under warranty....

normal mugen or mugen RR bodykit?

it is hard to find the EJ/EK spare part ? i mean normal part that will need to be replaced coz of wear /tears.

Type R the front part you change whole bumper and sacrifice your foglamp... While Mugen front part is only a add-on just like the side and rear skirting.

For bodykit expert and best price, go GC Motorsport... They are expert in all FD bodykits.

If you can stretch your budget, go for Mugen RR bodykit.

thats a hatch but if you break the rear window its gonna be really really expensive.

AKA Civic EuroR

i think those rm1200 is using PU/Fibre material bodykit.
don't really recommend those materials easy to break, looks ugly and need to adjust to install.

very common.
can intro u a few kang tou places in kl

yes go for GC.
they're the only ones i know now that have PP typer bodykit, others is PU.
the way they install the mugen kit is also not so "keras" no knocking and forcing.
the mugen lips they have all are bolted on your original bumper and side skirt without drilling.
all using original bolt holes and two way tape only.

u need to import it as well? why is it only the rear window expensive? what about the other window? u talking about the rear windscreen or side window? the rear windscreen is a big pcs tho..
