Ok I have 2 questions..

1. I have my tokico shocks and progress springs from my 98 lx..will it fit onto my SI?
2. The gas cover says to use premium fuel only..does this matter?

Thanks.

 

Anyone?

 

1. 99-00 si yes
2. i'd use premium if it said premium

 

I don't see no reason why it wouldn't work. 1996-2000 parts on Civics are interchangeable most of the time.

 

Damnit..premium is so freaking expensive >.< Thanks for the help.

I think Putting the suspension in is gonna be a pain..I think I have to remove the sway bar and junk >.< Wish me luck.

 

premium gas will hold up better when your in vtec. that cheap stuff will burn up faster

 

I don't think that VTEC has anything with Honda recommending premium fuel. It has to do with the engine's compression ratio and timing.

 

I don't see what the problem is...

The car says "Use Premium"... then you just go and use premium... its that easy. Your engine isn't the thing you want to be all cheap with.

 

id go with premium. Buy a $80 Porsche and it says premium only. are u gonna put 87 in it? hell no

 

didnt say honda said it for that reason i was just giving him helpful info so answer his question dont try to fix mine

Where can I get an eighty dollar Porsche?

 

If you read the honda manual it clearly states that the vehicle requires an octane of 91 or higher

 

It also says that you can run lower octanes but there will be a noticable loss in performance. The reason for the premium only is because of the compression ratio. 10.2:1 needs high octane.

Don't complain thats one of the perks of driving an Si

It's not that hard, and you don't need to remove the sway bar and junk, it's a few bolts.

 

Haha aiite thanks for all the info!
