Like said above you have to really rag the VTEC to the top end of the revs for the most power!![]()

like you have to get it in a certain rev range for the ass whupping to happen?

but you have to be impressed with the build quality and engineering of those units.I think I'm right in saying that there has never been a failure of a VTEC lump due to manufacturing faults?

over 1mil sold and not one taken back.![]()
they can be hard to drive however as when it dropps out of vtec the pick up is poor, on the crx it is anyway.

Then I had a very fast lap around the Nurburgring in an Integra and it blew me away
-
The engine/brakes/handling were all amazing.
Last week I purchased one!
Its not as quick as a tubby, but then it has only got normally aspirated 1.8! Acceleration is poor until you hit 6k rpm and the race cams kick in, then all hell brakes loose- theres nothing subtle about it, its a proper kick!
It makes the nicest noise of any 4 cylinder Ive been in and the brakes are truely immense.
.
Cant wait to take it on track and find out how she handles!
