    I had a 1.6 mivec 177brake one in about 99 to 02, it went like a scalded cat & was hard on oil.

    Unfortunately I did two bottom ends on mine and then she bit the dust on Bothornabrina.

    It was a black 93ke cyborg R. Recaro interior with a MOMO wheel, they were well set up with factory strut braces front and rear big brakes and good suspension. Type R civic was faster though ðŸ˜

    Ive had a 93 mivec lancer and a pulsar vzr - back when i was a cool boy racer.
    I really enjoy small affordable cars now, drive a swift!

    Think this could bridge the gap though!?

    Hard to look passed a mk5 golf gti at that year and price point. You won't lose big money on it and they're are some great ones out there. That new colt just doesn't do it for me, looks too 'halfordsy'

    Gone off german stuff, i like the reliability and price to fix jap stuff.
    They need more crazy 1.6s
