Re: Zc in rex worth it?
there is a sohc vtec ZC yes. Mine is a DOHC ZC in my rex and I love it. Its not the fastest car on the road.. but it can hang pretty well. All I have for it is intake and exhaust.

Re: Zc in rex worth it?
Its say its probably the most worth the money thing you can do to an older Civic/CRX for bang for buck.

Do it.

I say go w/the SOHC motor, noone makes parts for the ZC, and if they do they're hard to find. if something goes wrong bottom end wise ur fine, but if something goes wrong w/the head, cams, anything top end, ur screwed, lookin for parts that are gonna be hard to find, and when you find 'em they're gonna cost more then SOHC parts, just get a new SOHC out of a newer civic, it'll be a lot more reliable than a 14+yr. old motor, and easier to find parts for. Just my Opinion. I have a friend w/a ZC swap in his CRX, and he can't hang for shyt. he gets beat by V-6 Camaros and Mustangs all day. go w/the SOHC man
