I hate to disapoint you but im pretty sure that the 92 si didnt come with vtec i might be mistakin. I looked the car up on kbb and the 92 si just says 1.6 sohc, but the 93-95 si all say 1.6 16v sohc vtec? corect me if im wrong.Originally posted by civic31g
that is a d16z6 and yes it should have the vtec, one way to check to see is to look between ur tb and ur valve cover, and thier should be a small cylinder, if thier is then you have a vtec, also to make sure its an si look to see if thier is a sun roof. from ur pics it seems like you dont have the cylinder, so it might be a cx, so in other words u might have got riped off. and the ression that it dont say vtec if it is an si, is cuz the 92-93's didnt get that put on them. just the 94-95's cuz my 93 ex dont say vtec. but i have the vtec cylinder. if ya have any more questions just pm me, ive done a lot of research on this engine. and it shuld be to the left of ur header, the block code that is.
well i checked on here on the CIVIC SPECS buttion at the top and it says that the 92-95 (gen5) has a 1.6sohc vtec............they came up with the vtec in 92......i think.......so why the hell would they not put it into thier top model car? I know they put it into thier 92 ex's........a friend had one one time, but was an auto so he sold it.....but anyhow....yeah....Originally posted by Tay2610

Jeez you guys get your facts straight. A D16Z6 motor is vtec whether the valve cover says it or not. If it's got the code on there, it's VTEC unless the previous owner is a complete whackjob and put a non-vtec head on it, which isn't possible because no one is that stupid. And yes, it's an Si. Si hatchbacks were an option in canada for the 5th gen model year, and all of them were SOHC VTEC. The only other engine option here for those years was a D15B7 or the D15 VTEC-E in the Civic VX model
