[amdfaisal]

didn't notice before that EK3 seats are really similar to the local EJ seats... except for EK3 Vi-RS la kot but that is another story la since the car is for sailing...

for a 96 SOHC Vtec engine, what is it called?is it powerful or damn lembik?

Power or damn lembik? What kind of question is that?

depends on youlah.. I'm one of those that think the B16A is lembik.. but do most people say the same?

Are u sure abt the radio antenna thingy? Mine's on the side like local one's.. Or is that only for 99 spec EK's?

 

[shiroitenshi]

[adios]

sorry ... i'm short of knowledge about engine part... can u explain a bit more about the k20a? what stuff is that?

the ES civic is a latter gen after the EK. The 2.0 version comes with a K20A3 engine (I think.. been a while since I peeked in an ES's hood.) which is almost the same to that of the Integra DC5 type R, except it's not performance oriented, generating probably 155hp at the flywheel.

The K20a hattech mentions is probably the K20A from the DC5 Integra type R, which generates more than 200whp at stock trim.

The ES is also able to use brakes and knuckles from the DC5 (or was it the EP3? I forget...) which is brembo calipers for front, and stock sliding calipers for rear.
