It's nice, because when I'm hangin' out with people, I can always get out of driving... _____________________________ Your Forum Turbo Groupie...

And all Si come with Vtec too. Chances are you probaly saw a Civic Si coupe or you probaly saw a ricer. (in reply to VW/CIVIC) Post #: 47

What's a "ricer?" Plus someone on here was saying that the Si engine could be "swaped' to the Civic. The motor is a different story apparently. Embarrisngly, I do't think I know the diference between a motor and an engine! Feel free to explaine in laymen's terms if you'd like. Thanks! (in reply to D16z6) Post #: 48

RE: To buy a Civic or not to buy a Civic - 1/28/2005 1:47:51 PM    VW/CIVIC   Posts: 52 Joined: 1/13/2005 Status: offline LOL!! Abuse accepted. It's that you were commenting to me in the "New Member Area" under the topic "VTEC???," that all VTEC SOHC -engines- would not come with a DOHC -motor-. My fault but not knowing there seemed to be a distinction between motor and engine. Got it now. I like cars but don't know jack about them mechanically. I have actually tried to find some basic informative classes on auto mechanics to no avail. Ha ha...that is the main reason I love Honda. I never have any trouble with 'em!
