With the new honda's you're right, I like your 94 coupe more than the newer versions. Don't think your honda is old... it can handle much more time/kilometers. probably you'll have less troubles as with a 99 alfa. And don't forget what the alfa is worth when you want to sell it over a few years, I think the price drops hard!

I like the 156 and the 166, too! But personally I like the new Civic coupes very much! They are just a little bit too slow for a sports coupe IMO. But Jackson Racing will offer a super charger kit in the next months....

Totally agree... just got a new plan for my car, swap in a 2.2i VTEC of a prelude in my car... 185 bhp! 7.0 sec to 100 km/h !

I've just decided to keep my coupé and dress it up a little

[AccordCE8]

not a bad idea imo. Want some info how to build a itr engine in it? A carcompany in holland (ww.tcc.nl) did so

[VTEC1600]

Yeah, i know Robert-Jan had a B18 in his green civic

That's illegal in Belgium, but if anyone knows a way to make it legal, I'm all ears...

ah connections...

I don't now if it's legal in holland... you officially need to 're-check' the car at the government (sorry, can't put it in better words... i hope you know what i mean)

Has anyone an idea how much it will cost to swap in a type-r engine, all included (clutch, electronics, swapping)?

[VTEC1600]

There are cars like that in Belgium too. Here you have Danny's 1994 LSi coupé with a B16A and a lot of extra's, and it's a real Belgian car.




And for the Dutch guys, the one previously named Robert-Jan



Also a 1994 COupé

[VTEC1600]

And yes, both cars are painted in the famous Aztec green

How does he get it trough the 'keuring'

[VTEC1600]

He hasn't been to the inspection since the swap So i don't have the smallest clue

That could become funny when he has to go to the "keuring"!

[bracer]

Maybe you can fool the inspection by saying, eh DOHC VTEC, yes sir, that's Honda's famous injection, it really saves fuel!! or whatever

BTW, Veetec, you're up late! 4:30 jeez..

ATR... should give the less problems i think.... and more power... should it make a big difference in price?
