what specifically do you need to know..?

VX = lightweight (same as CX, 92's lighter cuz of airbags), pre-wired VTEC, 1 Wire 02 sensor to my knowledge, crappy motor, g00t gas mileage, long *** gears, shift light, tar in front footwells and firewall and thing behind front footwell, no rear tar. 13" VX spec Eneki rims, light *** hell and too damn skinny.

that's g00d info. just wanted to know more about this weird version. the g00d gas mileage is interesting to me. l00xing for a potential second car.

tall gears is kind of intriguing as well. maybe not in a good way, but oh well. hah.

i can deal w/ the crappy motor. :D

-k-b0t, who thanks navin...

yep it gets very good gas mileage, at about 220 Miles on the tripmeter today the needle is slightly above the 1/2 mark.

The gears are sooooo long. Before my swap I swear I could hit 110 in third gear LOL
VTEC engages at 3000 RPM
And it actually uses a 6 wire O2 sensor

Good gas mileage, VX rims are cool but the tires suck. I get 400 miles to a tank of gas so that's a plus. My O2 sensor is a 5 wire. Car has no ***** whatsoever, but I can fill up my tank on 10 bucks.

I'm looking for a VX shortblock for my next 1.5L from hell buildup. DO NOT throw them away!
