Civic Coupe in the UK
I have searched for the engine specifics on my car, nothing seemed to tell me what i know, i was wondering if any one could tell me what the specs of my engine are, as i have been to honda (a friend works there) and even they dont know.
this is from the log book, or V5C
CC = 1493
Vin # = 1HGEJ21200
Engine # = D15B7
from what i have picked up, it is a 1.5 16v sohc non vtec
from what i know, by driving it.
It has power all the way up to about 3500 - 3750 rpms it then just sort of stays there, then at 5250 rpms it out acceleratered my friends 1.6 8v turbo and yes we were racing (on a closed circuit), i have been told this car only has 105bhp by honda but im 100% sure its closer to 150+ as i have beaten 1.8 16v cars, so do i have a special car or is this just a very quick car.
another thing its registered as a 96' but its actually a 92 - 95 build, as you can see from the pic.
hopefully included is a recent picture of my car, soz about the quility it was taken with a camera phone.
any help given will be appriciated.

Re:
ok searched google (yahoo) and found wicopedia to be very usefull in telling me what i needed to know, also having read said artical im now considering a b16a transplant, is this easy or hard, i have done an engine swap b4 but that was a vauxhall nova with no wiring to worry about, i was thinking of purchasing a complete b16a saloon and rippind the parts from it so i should have everything i need, or is there some other parts im likly to want, i know the ABS cant be transported to my civic (non-ABS) and air-con will be a bitch to swap but not really worried about having it as the widows will be down most of the time.
