Yea SI's are basically good for one thing: being a donor car. There's an over 250 lb. difference between the SI and the bottom of the line DX coupe. Just swap in the B16, and you have a potential beast.

All I'm saying is if I were to ever go the civic route (which I won't), I would just buy the DX (or HB) for cheap, swap, and build from there. BTW, the DX and SI share the same chassis so what do you mean?? Given equal HP and equal drivers, the lighter car will win, especially when you're dealing with over 200 lbs. weight differential. Any car can be made quick, there's no denying that.

Looks to me like a B16A swap into a hatch, there is no way that can possibly be an SiR (Si for you guys in the States)... That car with the wimpy 106hp engine would pose no threat to the max in stock form unless heavily modified... Only the newest hatch has the SiR engine (Si in States) and btw, it's ugly like a mother... On the other hand, the B16A can be a monster if done right, i learned the hard way when i ran into a turbo 1.6, beat in a really short stoplight to stoplight, but when we got another roll going, i got the jump and it was all downhill from there... for me that is...

Did, u guys even watch that video, obviously it was not an 01 Civic SI, the video even showed that the matchup was "97 Maxima SE VS 03 Honda Civic HB" Let's forgive our fellow maxima members for their typos...Hey BTW good job on stomping that civic! Civic's = Maxima's = It's always nice to see a real import beat the poor overrated Rice!

Haha, I had a good expierence with a 95 Civic EX with a b16 swap. We lined up at a red light, and the street ahead was uphill, so the first 0-60 was uphill. This was when I still had my intake on, I turn my TCS off and WOT!! All of a sudden I see the guy about 1 and a half two cars back. Geuss what happend next light. We got lined up again, The guy was making complaints that he missed a gear so I said fine, This time I only beat him by about a car. Then the guy said to me I must be doing something right? haha
But anyways nice kill!!!
