Re: Engine Question
Yea dude, no American civics came with dohc vtec engines stock except for 99-00 Si's. Either his engine is not original or its the 95 Si stock engine which is SOHC vtec. (d16z6) And yes, aftermarket or not, it will fit in your car if it fits in his. If it is aftermarket you may need some mounts but im thinking its the d16z6 which you will need no modifications at all to make it fit. As melt said though you will need to wire up mpfi and install something that will acticate vtec.

LOL. Actually - what you got as a Del Sol was marketed as a 3G CRX in quite a lot of countries... including Japan
It was never marketed as a Civic
