The delsol would be faster if the roof was manual. The automatic ones its heavy af, mine was but I bought the manual trunk and roof and the car weight 80kg less. Sorry for my english, Im italian😅
@@HashDogg06 Really? I had no idea then again I just got my first honda ever just a few weeks ago and I never really drive my cars hard when cold. Anyway thanks for the tip ill try to remember that!
@@theagemon5 I probably confused you by saying enthusiast when really i'm meaning those people who just love thrashing their Vtec's everywhere & thrash it cold to find no Vtec, i was one of those people many years ago.
@@HashDogg06 haha I see you mean the more traditional/stereotypical honda dude. I searched it up for a bit of 'fact check' and there was a dude on a forum asking why vtec didn't work when his car was cold he got his answer, and I guess I found a more traditional honda owner.😅
The Eg Del Sol and Eg Civic was actually closer that the Eg Del Sol vs Ef CRX. A far cry from what was circulating for many years that the Ef CRX is faster than the Eg Civic and that the Eg Del Sol is very slow.
Essentially Yes but to the afficionados it can be a No. Yes, because the SiR in Japan means it has the B16 engine. No, because the SiR in Japan had more power You can say it essentially is or 95% equal to the B16 SiR II (2)
@@questaebenzinah2600 JDM has slightly higher compression ratio due to different pistons. Apart from that the ECU is different and has a slightly different map. ECU is a straight swap but unless you have 99 RON fuel probably not a good idea. Pistons can be swapped but a lot of work for not much gain. The 9bhp would be better chased through bolt ons and a good tune imo

Papa americano
That's 180lbs 🥲. Impresses the chicks though 😆. Just pop a B18 in there lol. These things getting so expensive I would take it either way.
Just love these retro race especially the Honda ones at VTec sounds awesome and just sitting here thinking I hope they warmed that up first🤣👍
Vtec won't kick in yo if it ain't warm enough unless ECU has been modified, any Honda enthusiast would know this.

I have a Del Sol with a B18 inside it. I've a 97 Civic hatch as well. Both are quirky and enjoyable.
100ish lbs makes a big difference.

glad i found your channel. keep up the good work!
Surprisingly not much of a difference considering the CR-X Del Sol is supposedly much heavier.
40 kilos
純粋に走りを求めれば、civicだけど、CR-Xには面白さがあるので、それはそれでいいんですよ😹
That hatchback 😍si civic
Sir dude, big difference...
@@Shane-zx4ps. It still part of Si variant of Civic
Привет! Круто с 1600кубов выжили 170 лошадок без турбо! 👍 Вот это технологии! 😉🤗
Goth dayum. That man was banging gears.
drag races cr-x vs civic sir
They'll be the same if the del sol was not a transtop
1:10 those rims
As an American I feel cheated that Japan got the better technology for the del sol
VTEC turbo so good
No too much money in fixing turbo issues
Del sol is obviously heavier but can anyone confirm the statement that
The 94-95 honda del sol vtec usdm b16a3 is considered a jdm b16 sirII (2)?????
Essentially Yes but to the afficionados it can be a No.
Yes, because the SiR in Japan means it has the B16 engine.
No, because the SiR in Japan had more power

USDM is lower compression than JDM and 9bhp lower
@@seshelbow336 And what's the difference with the B16A2? Is it possible to regain that power? Thanks a lot

@@seshelbow336 which mods would you do? I'm a newbie in tuning :) I didn't imagine it has different pistons, I thought it was only about ECU
