changin to VTEC
is ther a big difference swapin in a vtec into a vtec car and swappin in a vtec engine into a car w/out vtec? i mean are u gonna need a grip more stuff to swap in a vtec engine into a nonvtec car? i'm tryin to decide on whether buyin a lx 95 civic for cheaper, or a 95 ex civic w/ vtec would be better to swap in a b16a. thanks.

go with a Lx...all you are adding is 3-4 wires tops...so why pay more ......all being equal it makes no difference, it doesn't take any longer to wire the lx then ex....

LX = D15B7
EX = D16Z6 with more (heavier) options
One looks kinda silly getting beat by a 4 door.
B20 on boost will do that. Talk about a sleeper!

Its easy like they said. A b16a will swap into either one pretty easily as long as it is the 2nd gen b16a. Do you want the four dour? If so Id get the LX b/c it is lighter and therefore lighter. No matter what you want swapping the b series into any 5th gen is about the same and all in all pretty easy.
