does anyone know what this actually is short for? I was thinking special edition, but that just isnt an I...

anyone got an answer to this? also is it true Si's cost more for insurance than say a DX or HF?

 

sport injection.

 

Sports Injected

and no they dont.. its like having a higher trim level... car insurance dont look or pay attention to that... they go for yr, engine, and type car...

 

Insurance is all the same.

 

yeah: Sport injected

CRX = civic renaissance X or civic renaissance eXperiment

 

sweet, thanks for the fast replies... never knew CRX was even short for anything

 

I dont think its sport injected. I think its sport inspired.
cause all of the 92+ civics were MPFI, and i I believe the intakes were then same throughout the different trim levels, and they have Si's too.
not sure about this, its just what I heard. I used to think it was sport injected before I heard this

I thought CRX was short for Civic Racing eXperimental??Dunno, just what I read somwhere.

And yeah, si = Sports injection as far as I know as well.

 

its probably just a carry over from the 3rd gen civic, where the sport injected term actually meant something (meaning it had mpfi where the others didn't.)

 

<U></U>

 

do you mean 4th gen?? cause then the Si's had the MPFI unlike the DX&gt; but with the 5th gens+, I dunno why it would mean sport injected cause all the models were mpfi then.

What does HF stand for? Holy FrickImALightCar?

 

HF = Hella Fast

 

Yeah if dropped from a C130 cargo plane 5 miles up.

 

Si does mean sport injected. it started with the older preludes, most being carbed, but honda put fuel injection on them (i think) around 86. that was when they came up with the acronym Si.

 

HF = horse ******. Don't ask thats what my friend thats a tech at honda calls them .

 

nope

High Fuel

 

yeah they will stop fast too when dropped
