I find myself watching a number of Honda VTEC 'kick' videos on YouTube. I don't ever recall being in the VTEC range of any of the Hondas ive been in. Am I missing much? What does it feel like- a light turbo boost?

Depends on the car and the power difference really.
I've been in some that just make a lot more noise but my mate's EK puts you back in your seat at cross over.

Apologies for being an idiot, I'll behave

Well I'm back home for the next 4 days before I head off again. I plan to finally get around to refurbing the other 3 wheels after I did the first one 13months ago:o especially since Andy did up stickers for them for me
I'll see if I have time as well to repaint my bumpers, Mr.Pickles has inspired me with his bumper antics

My civic was a 1.3/1.4 Dsi engine , fecking eco friendly yoke, was great for that though !

My CR-V was a 2.0 i-Vtec and was automatic so that didnt pull quickly either !

cheers, I'll see if I get around to it. The front bumper will need a small bit of structural fiber glass action to do it right. Other than that it's just stone chips and scratches.
I need to get the wheels sorted first though. Every time I pressure wash them more of the old paint flakes off!

Ah yeah I have fiberglass and filler and the like, sure whenever you need it give me a shout

Nothing a wire brush wont sort! or say, 60 or 80 grit sandpaper, then 400 grit
