ok new here but not new to honda i had a 93 sol ut wraped it around a tree well i just picked up a 93 civic dx it use to be auto now is stick and also has a d16z6 in it. it was smokeing bad when i got it compresson was 175 all across so i pulled the head and sent it to my buddys speed shop to get the valve seal replaced and a port and polish job but i noticed when i took it around the block a few times that the vtec wasnt kickin so idk why any help would be app thanks in advance... o and i call it the fake r cuz i want to do every thing on it typ r just cuz i like the look

 

trust me, dont do a type r front lip. it looks gross on 92-95 civics. been there, done that.

 

x2, get a mugen or bys lip

and get skirts with it as well, cars with only front lips look like hoover vacuums

 

lol this is true. go with ek sideskirts.

 

I thought type r's were hatchbacks anyways and ek chassis

But go for it

 

imo go oem lip and dump the car mud flaps visors low offset rims and ur done

 

Type R what? Just get an oem lip, fill the side molding holes and lower the rear.

 

Really guys its my car ill def do the ek side skirts but im stayin type r lips badges interior and when i get the time and money a built JDM B18c if im correct that's a JDM type r integra and my post was mainly for my vtec problem

 

i love type r do it lol
my new type r lip should be here tuesday for my ej8

 

so can any one help me with my vtec problem? cuz i don't even know if the swap was done right? so and wiring info would be app guys

 

check to make sure theres power to the solenoid first....then check to see if its dirty.

 

you do realize there was no type r for your generation correct?

 

yea i do now lol

 

yea there is no R for that generation lol

 

the SI-R is what i like to call the type R (which did have a b16 i believe)

 

yea but that didnt look that different from a regular EG.

 

idc ill prob just do a 95-200 type r front end swap

 

A what? A 96-00 Ek9 front end or Integra Typer R front end? I'm confused.

Why don't you just stop trying to fake it with all the money you'll spend on Type R stuff and get a real one

 

You should really do some research before you start thinking about what you want to do with this car. Browse around some of the build threads and get an idea of what turns you off.

I'll tell you right now, trying to put an EK or a DC front end on your car, it'll end up looking like garbage. I've yet to see any clean front end conversion from a different generation or different model car.

Please put some thought into this before doing impulse things, after all, it's a coupe!

 

 

Si-r is as close to a type r as a
Gs-r or the Sir-g. Just cuz it has an R in it doesnt make it anythyng close.

Ps have you seen the tite jdm crx type r? I think its called si-r or something....Close enough

 

Clean coupe , just dont ruin it with some fake *** Type R garbage. If you put a Type R motor in it cool, thats about as far as I'd go with "making it a type r" other than 5 lug and seats.

 

idk right now all i need to do first is get the vtec wired up right then ill worry about what im guna do to it and i thout a 93 would be a eg not a dc and i took two years of auto body so i can make things flow on it with some custom work but again need help with the wiring and the head should be back from my buddy's speed shop sat sent it for valve seals and hes said hes guna port and polish and do some other stuff to get a little more out of it.

 

Uhhhhh.... what?

Like I said, please do some research before you jump into something crazy

 

i'm not gonna help you ruin this coupe... lol
