Well, i finally got rid of my P.O.S. 88 Civic Hatch...rusted to hell and burns oil like mad with a huge ping in the engine. what i want next is a 5th Gen Civic. probably Closer to 95. I was wondering what i should look for, im thinking the SI for the B16 engine. but i wanna hear some other opinions.

 

5th gen si's dont have the dohc b16, that is the 99-00 ek si. 5th gen si's have sohc d16z6's

Look for a 99-00Ek SI for that B16 D16s only have 125 hp but it does have Vtec!

 

Because that is not an Si.

 

can you tell what kind it is from the picture? and do you think it is worth it?

 

I can tell it had an SOHC engine in it.

 

looks like a dx or lx

though i didn't think either had ABS in the 6th gen

 

the z6 is a nice engine though, i say go for it if you want the gen

 

I mailed the guy but no response yet. 4600 canadian for a 99 seems really cheap, i've looked around and closest price i've found near that is 7g's for a 99 :s so i dunno, im looking at a 95 LX, i wish i could get the SI. but i cant find any of them anywhere.
