What do you guys think is the best Honda Civic motor?
What is the best engine you can get in a Honda Civic 1992-2000? Most reliable? Easiest to work on? Best performance? V-Tech non V-Tech?

There is no best. There is simply the best for the application/budget/skill at hand.
Every motor and series has its ups and downs. Depends on the goals, power making method, and other intentions for the car.
There is no simple "best." Period. Anyone who knows anything will agree.

Re: What do you guys think is the best Honda Civic motor?
Again. All of them. "Best" is subjective. You have asked an open ended question that will get you a wide spectrum of answers. Hence my answer. If you're just trying to start a conversation, as new people tend to like to do, then maybe do that in one of the other sections of the forum suited to it.
Otherwise you might want to ask a specific question.

My bad. What questions should I be asking? What model engine do you have in your Civic? What upgrades have you done?

Like I thought. You have no purpose in this past trying to start up a chat.
Here's a question for YOU. Best engine for WHAT?

wow no tech asked in this question do you have a honda civic? first off have you even looked underneath the hood there is no best all single cams are same to work on as are the dual cam. This isnt a forum to ask others what motors they have and what they like if you want to ask opinion questions go to their profile and pm them use the forum for tech questions....

I just started look at buying a Civic. I was hoping to get some info from you guys who do have experience so I would have a good idea on what to look for.

Re: What do you guys think is the best Honda Civic motor?
You still have not asked anything specific. Is this a daily driver? Track/Auto-X? Plan on boosting or building it in the future?
Jeez! Give people something to go on. You already own an Integra judging from the past posts you've made so I don't know what the purpose of this question is.

Don't buy a modified car, with no knowledge, your going to get screwed.
It gets old fast when all these noobs post about all these issues they're having with cars they just bought,every single day.
