A few months ago on the old PH you posted some links of German sites where you can search for used cars. I lost the links, if you can remember them could you post them again?
thanks.

[Veetec]

Of course I remember them. I try to find a good ITR in them every day! (In the moment I wished to be a VW fan cause there are millions of them in there!! )
The links are: www.mobile.de
www.autoscout24.de
www.faircar.de

ah thanks!
The same thing over here, for every VT, ESi, VTi you find there are like 25 Golf's GTi or something, to find a good ITR must be even harder.
Many Civic Vtec's in Holland are imported from Germany so I might as well search in Germany for a good car, so thanks again for the links!

Actually it´s the other way around. It´s easier to find an ITR with less kilometers than a Civic VTi hatch with less kilometers! But I haven´t bought one of these ITRs yet because most of them are modified without knowing how to do it right so I´m going to wait till I´ve found a nearly new stock one!! But there are a lot of Civic sedans with the 1.8l DOHC VTEC engine with about 169hp.

Found anything interesting? By the way, what were you looking for?

Call me crazy but I'm looking for another 4th gen hatch
a VT, 150hp B16. I'm looking for one with a mint body, no rust etc.
I found 2 of them so they are pretty rare in Germany as well.
If I find one I'm going to have the engine "repaired" don't know the english word, but they make it like new. I think you know what I mean I'm willing to spend some cash on that.
I've always wanted that car and after owning 2 4thgens I'm ready for my 3rd, the ultimate
But it's going to take some months before I get one, I'm just looking around.

Nope, I won´t call you crazy! There is a german shop who would take the old engine out and put a modified one in it again in exchange. After this swap it would be a 1,9l VTEC with 199hp and a torque of 199. But it would cost about 5.000,-Euros. How does that sound? The shop is called Völkl-Motorsport and the link is in our list.

Hehe, I actually thought about a swap but I'd miss al the nice goodies the VT has, like power mirrors, windows, roof, the different front-end and more. And offcourse, very important the 4 brake discs. the VT is bassicly a whole different car.

Okay, again. About which Civic are we talking? Do you mean the EE8?

[bracer]

It's the EE9, the EE8 is the 88-92 CRX VT, EE9 is the hatch.
It's eassier to get a EE8, I like them as well but I want a hatch.:frog:

Sorry, that was my fault! I was talking about the same car. I just mixed up the numbers! So what do you think of an EE9 with 1,9l VTEC and 199hp?

[bracer]

hehe I'd love that! but one step at a time..I'm driving around with 90horses for the past 1,5 year so 150hp will be a big step for me, but who knows, maybe in the future when I have a B16A and I think 150hp isn't enough to move 1000kg and I have the cash, hmm how nice that would be...ah well everyone has their dreams, and that's all it is (for now )

Yea, you´re right! 150 VTEC hp will already be damn good on a lightweight Civic. I wouldn´t do it, too. It was just an idea...
