im currently getting ready to run its for scca but ran into a little problem ok big problem to run u need an si now i have a 96ex with everything off of an si on it the only thing dat lets u know its and si is the vin do they allow ex with ever thing swaped in it from an si to run or it has to be an si

i think i know the awnser just don't want to tear it down before i start

 

if you are planning on running it next year there is a vin rule being passed that would make what you want to do legal.

As of now it illegal, but there are people running with the same thing you are describing

 

so what if you have been racing with an ex 96 all a sudden u will be forced to buy a real si? i cant see where that is fair its hard to find an si much less one in really good condition most are beaten up and would cost alot to mod thier must be a way around this rule

what if u swap vin numbers

you miss-understood what he said.


next year what you are wanting to do will be 100% legal.

As of now it is technically illegal.


As of now the VIN # rule says that the VIN has to match the model in the spec line. So your civic EX isn't legal as an SI.

Next year they are fixing this rule, so that you can take your civic EX and convert it into a civic SI and be 100% legal
