Fantastic cars go for it! all the above that have mentioned v-tec cars that the v tec has been designed for economy, they go through a lot of oil, have a few timing chains due to them stretching ( lack of oil) the front struts are bad for play in the glad, and as usual honda brakes are prone for the brake pads sticking in the carriers.

And the superb choice of after market parts

I'm a honda tech, so i work on these cars quite regularly

only bad point being they arent that faster than the zs 180 ( well my old one lol)

Then you'd think you'd know how to spell VTEC then!

I've had 5 vtec Honda's so far, loved every single one from my little 170bhp 1.6 CRX to my 220bhp 2.2 Prelude...

Yes you need to rev them to get into the power band, but that sound cannot be turned down!
