Re: eclipse rs vs. civic w/b16
B16? or D16, i'm not sold on the fact that an auto eclipse RS can beat a 5 speed B-16, the D-16 comes in the civic EX and the B16 comes inhte SI, dif. of 30hp because the D16 is a SOHC

Re: eclipse rs vs. civic w/b16
b16 but it'd be pretty close. If the civic had a b18b or b18c1 not a chance in hell the eclipse wins.

Re: eclipse rs vs. civic w/b16
RS auto vs. B16
even if the B16 misshifts he'd still be close to winning if he didn't win to be honest i don't believe it, it doesn't add up, if it was just a civic EX or a 92-95 SI i'd believe it, but w/ the 99-00SI engine or car it doesn't add up

Re: eclipse rs vs. civic w/b16
thats tru, the civic is still faster... unless it has a 35mph speed limiter, lol. Yeah, maybe older Si's....but not a newer b16 nopes.

Re: eclipse rs vs. civic w/b16
the 92-95 Si's were SOHC vtec D16Z6 and had something like 126hp at the motor. The 99-00 Si's have a DOHC vtec B16a with I believe 160hp at the motor.
An EG civic would lose but the EK or EP3 would win.

Re: eclipse rs vs. civic w/b16
<<< sport compact researcher thought about it, but
...honda transmissions are built extremely well, modifying honda's is extremely easy, making them fast isn't hard at all, forced induction!? pshaw not as long as there is vtec
