Default civic factory performance

in the uh march i believe road and track issue, there is a article on hondas factory performance vehicles. in that it says that the civic fp has a 160hp engine along with the other upgrades it gets. i would assume that this engine is the same as the one in the Si and the RSX base model. so perhaps for those who dont like the current Si bodystyle, or prefer a coupe or something, this would be a viable option?

Mag is wrong. The FP is not coming with the K20A3. It will be just like the FP package for the RSX, with a kit, better handling, etc but no new or bigger engine.

it's not a bolt in affair like the b-series in a 92-95 Civic, but they do fit with mounts from HAsport.

Lawd a mercy.

Anybody else notice how new users like to beat up on each other?
Wow. Haha I didn't even notice that the one doing the "beating up" only had 11 posts himself.

I wonder if he is on here to actually contriute or just flame people. If you dont like a post than dont post and if you dont agree with what a guy is saying then just say I dont agree. We all have opinions and have the right to give them as long as you give them in a good way.

I read the same thing in Road and Track. They specifically said that the Civic FP will has 160 hp, 16" wheels/tires, stiffer suspension, and the factory ground-effects kit. They also said it was $4000K.

I don't know...I didn't think fanboy.com's posts were that bad.

They were actually kind of funny.
