My Brother's V-Tec

deep throat · #1 (**permalink**) 02-24-2006, 03:22 AM

This is my brother's 2003 V-Tec...Sweet ride, sweet engine (not by your German standards anyway), and SUPERB HANDLING!!! Really, gotta drive it or watch it from the outside on a round about (my recent hobby)....Running Schmidt Motorsport wheels wrapped in Falken Ziex (Greatest profile in the world). Sizes are 17"x7.5" with 205x40 tires. Suspension department is confidently taken care of by D2 coilovers, PERIOD! I'm seriously thinking about a set for me...It sure can go much lower, but the roads are hostile and not exactly willing to make it safe for it.

Well, enough said..Enjoy.

Nice civ, i just hate when people describe hondas as 'vtec'-its a civic. My accord has a sohc vtec engine, similar to that, and the vtec is for fuel efficiency, no so much as far as power, like a dohc b18c. Just my .02-looks good, though.

Word.... My gf has a Acura TSX, hondata ecu, aem intake. Fun car drives and handles great but its in dying need of a turbo, as the NA 4cyl is slooooww. Time for sum real power, now she wants an SRT 8 jeep

WTF is a 'v-tec'? I've never EVER heard of a Honda 'V-Tec'. Sorry.
However, I have raced in a Honda S2000, with a F22 that had Variable Valve Timing + Lift Electronic Controlled..

^^ You only live in one part of the world, so here's a good lesson about car names from another part....

In Japan the car isn't called the 'vtec' and in the Americas, it's called a Civic. Here's the lesson: You wouldn't call a car it's name by the electronics it uses. That's like calling a 98 M3 an 'OBD-II'. hey guys, I'm driving an OBD-II today! No. Sounds dumb.

Edit:
I sure see civic on the back of this car, btw.
