great engine in the RSX S, but in France, we believe, perhaps a day, we can buy the Integra Type R DC5 with the K20A engine 2.0l >>220ch!
Yea, in France, somebody would like to have a civic coupe with B16a. But swap are prohibed>>> if police see the swap, the car wiil be destroy!

i dunno how they managed, but there's a speed shop here in town (FZ turbo - they usually work with wrx's) that dropped a b16a2 in a mini cooper (not the new bmw minis, but rather the old ones).... not only that, but they've slapped a snail on it as well... i haven't seen it run yet, but i bet it's fast...


here's a rather old pic of the fzturbo team.

very fun to see european car! where it is?

so, i see an evo (you know it), an Citroen Saxo, an OPEL (Vauxhaul) Astra, an Fiat Punto, Impreza, and a Peugeot 206.

Do you know Peugeot? remember the peugeot 405 T16 won PIkesPeaks in 1989 with Ari Vatanen.

that pic was taken here in Chile... for those who are lost, Chile is a country in south america... the really long and thin one by the pacific ocean. here in chile we get cars from all over, so there's quite an odd selection of vehicles here.

my daily driver here in chile is a french car, a citroën xsara vtr. my dad's daily driver is a nissan primera (aka. infiniti g20)...

Hi there !

I'm also a french guy =)
And I also own an EK4 VTi (SiR II) with the B16A2.
Mine is white.
Here, the Civic sedan 4 door comes with the B18C of the Integra SiR in Japan, and with the Torsen differential.

I really would like to put a turbo on my hatch, but as it was said, it's highly prohibited here, and cops are not kind :???:

Yep, from the factory :D

But that's why the 4D is more expensive than the hatch.
And that's the B18C and the 4D is really really nice =)
(Same Torsen differential as the Civic/Integra Type-R)

here is a pic of the car :

don't enjoy, yes it is a B18 but don't produce 192Hp!!
It is just a cool family car
But there was the civic EG9 sedan with a B18 too, a torsen, and produce 170 Hp.
Happy to see a french guy here!
