which ludes have vtec?

Like what years and models? (or is there only an si?)

thanks

The 4th gen VTEC model has the h22, and every 5th gen has it.

what years are the 4th gen and 5th? so is there only si?

4th Gen - 1992-1996

5th Gen - 1997-2001

Only 3rd and 4th Gens have an Si model I believe.

well im thinking 5th gen would probly be too much then

i can afford 4th gens though, wait so h22 is the motor type?

Yeah, the engine codes are on the block.
Go for the 4th gen, if you like nice interiors, and go with the VTEC model (h22 195hp).
SI 4th gens have H23's (160hp, non-vtec)
I have a 5th gen and they have a plainer interior, but all of them have the VTEC (H22), I like the way they look on the outside better.

how can i tell if a 4th has an h22? only by lookin at the motor?

yea you really only KNOW for a fact that its a h22 if you look under the hood...just look for the engine code it will say h22a1 or something similar to that...if you cant find that look for the vtec solenoid..

Or just rev up your car past 5k rpms and if you feel it pull harder you know you got vtec. :grinyes:

It should say h22a4, h22a1 is jdm.

No, H22A is JDM.

No, H22A is JDM.
thats what i thought too

No, H22A is JDM.

H22a= JDM
H22a1 = 4th gen Vtec with closed
H22A4 = 5th gen Vetc with open

The H23s have secondary butterflys that open at around 4500 RPM creating a similar effect to VTEC. I wouldn't advise this to a novice.

Maybe start by looking at the valve cover if you are too lazy to get a flashlight and read the casting code.
