use the search button at the top right search is your best friend by the way welcome to h-t

 

ok thanks man, can anyone atleast tell me which of these many engines (d16a6, zc, b16a, etc, etc) that an si would have inside?
Thanks foir the welcome,

I think the majority of the board members are from the US, so not many will have UK specific model knowledge. Or there won't be many thread's coming up in the search that will be helpful. Maybe change the title and ask for UK owners help?

Anyway, it would also help to know the model year and chasis code. If it is the bodystyle we got here in the US during 88-91, I believe an "EE" chassis Si is a ZC powered car. I seem to recall the VT-i being the B16 powered model (equivalent of a JDM Si-R).

 

oh ok, kinda makes sense i guess, lol, theres not much uk stuff about on the 4g's it seems...the car spec is 1990 HONDA CIVIC Si 1.6 16v which probably doesn't help at all, but its worth a try...

its probably the stock d16a6 but since u r in uk i could be wrong since you guys have more models than us, that engine puts out about 108hp 100tq so its not a speed demon but its fun and peppy.

 

that sounds ok, wont be quite the power i've grown to love 143bhp 2 be exact, lol. but i guess it'll be faster, my friend has a 1.6i 1990 crx non-vtec do these 2 cars share the same engine?

like i said im not not from the uk but it should have same amount
