Do Not PM me your technical questions. Post them in the forum!

it's worse than a VX?


I don't think I would ever bother to put a D17 in any eg...

95 Civic Coupe DX - d15b7 - some mods nothing crazy - My 5th EG
98 Jeep Cherokee 2 door - little lift with 31s 4.0 5 speed
77 Chevrolet C10 - Mild 350/350 combo - lowered a little

vx and cx are pretty much the same if you ask me the vx however has a bit of added power when needed due to vtec....

- Sat Feb 13, 2010 4:09 pm #175083 CX engine is an 8 valve 60hp failure. VX engine is a 16 valve fuel economy success. It was cheap, it gave decent power, and it got great mileage. What would you rather have, a Civic VX or a Geo Metro?
