CF means Carbon Fiber (as in a CF hood)

Note: For basic stuff, like your questions, you're probably better off searching with google.com instead of here on honda-tech.

Good luck and read the FAQs out there on the Internet. Almost any question you could have has already been answered and most likely put into FAQ form.

I think that should be 88-91 for the EF (at least for america's versions). And by EF, it is the chassis code for the jdm (or japanese domestic market) version of the car.

So what series are the 84 to 87 Civic's?????

Speed PHreak

USDM = United States Domestic Market
JDM = Japanese Domestic Market
EDM = European Domestic Market

Hybrid = car with the engine from another chassis in it(IE - 91 CRX w/ 91 LS integra engine)

84-87 = Thrid gen civic & first gen CRX(USDM chassis code might be ~ EW)
88-91 = Forth gen civic & second gen CRX(USMD chassis code = ED, JDM chassis = EF)

DPFI = Dual Point Fuel Injection also know as Throttle Body Fuel Injection(TBFI/TBI)
MPFI = Multi Point Fuel Injection

SOHC = Single Over Head Cam
DOHC = Dual Over Head Cam
VTEC = Have someone else explain that to you, I dislike VTEC.

STOCK ENGINES: (USDM - 88-91 )

D15B6 = 1.5L SOHC engine, 88-91 CRX HF
D15B2 = 1.5L SOHC engine, 88-91 Civic DX/STD, CRX DX
D16A6 = 1.6L SOHC engine, 88-91 Civic/CRX Si

SWAPABLE engines

D16Z6/ or D16Y8 = 1.6L SOHC VTEC engine, 92-00 Civic = 127HP
B16A = 1.6L DOHC VTEC engine = 160HP
B18A/B = 1.8L DOHC, 90-00 LS integra engine = 130-140HP
B20B/Z = 2.0L DOHC, 97-00 CRV engine = 130~140 HP(underated)
B17A = 1.7L DOHC VTEC, 93-93 Integra GS-R = 160HP
B18C1 = 1.8L DOHC VTEC, 94+ Integra GS-R engine = 170HP
B18C5 = 1.8L DOHC VTEC, 94+ Integra Type R = 185~195HP

**edited** added CRV engine.duh

Oops, I was half-asleep when I posted that last night. Thanks for the corrections.
I guess I just wanted to push him in the right direction.

SpeedPhreak, cool list

HybridFiend

I have a large info page in my tool box, that has all the info on chasis info, for all Honda/Acura platforms, updated too 2002. It's nice to have Dealership connections. When I get to my tool box I'll look for the chasis code on the 3rd gen civic-USDM/JDM. iight later.

josups

AussieK24

Proper

The Chasis code for a 3g USDM Civic 86-87 is AH Eng EW4
The Chasis code for the JDM 3g is AT Eng ZC

Personally, for the money you spend on a B18C5 I would rather build an LS/VTEC (B18A/B block with a VTEC head) or just build a B18C1 (GSR motor). Unless you get a B18C5 for a steal you're pretty much buying a name (I have a Type R motor in my CRX), i'd rather have a fully built GSR motor for the same price that would spank a stock Type R motor powered CRX.
