Alright i am looking at buying another car,it is a 98 Civic LX,i was wondering what kinda of motor is in it,and also what to know if it is the VTEC or not

 

Hey People,why i am needing this info is the car is about a 100 miles away,and the sales person there doesnt know alot about this car,that is why i am asking the experts on these cars,please Help

 

1. go to http://www.carpoint.com

2. Then go to "resaerch used cars"

3. Pick "honda civic"

4. Pick your year

5. Choose "engines and specifications"

This site will tell you everything about your car. IF there was a recall, it will tell you, and also all the technical specs, like dimensions, power, trannys colors...etc.

 

Try google.com

 

Alright thanks,i just didnt know where to go to find stuff about the car,but thanks

 

here's some good charts I found:

http://raceseek.com/honda_specs.htm

http://www.geocities.com/motorcity/s...inespecs1.html

http://tech.hybridgarage.com/tech/specs.htm

it's a D16Y7. Non-Vtec, single cam. I'm interested too. I have a 99 LX

Looks like it's basically a D16Y8 with a non-vtec head. You could do a Y8 head swap for a cheap-ish upgrade. otherwise save your pennies for a full swap. that little engines only putting out 104 hp. Although I find mine rather peppy.

Yea i have a 94 civic right now that i still owe alot of money on and i am not able to get a swap in it,I also want a newer body style car too,so it looks like i need to find a EX to get the Vtec motor
