    My 1.2 16v vs 1.2 8v @ the Pod..

    ive driven a few different ones both 16v and 8v over the years and the 16vs are a good bit quicker as your flying thru the revs thru the gears, around town in all honesty you wont notice too much difference due to the 8v getting its power lower down the rev range, they feel the same untill about...

    civic handles better than my clio due to the LSD corners at crazy speeds! (not like a 172 corners that slow either!!) were not really into abusing our cars off the lights etc but from 30+ the clio pulls on it, over 100 clio is a good bit quicker. overall imo the civic is the better drivers...

    Rx's for some reason are a little more pricey to insure! yeah if look around enough you will get a good one for that!

    My 172 and Mates EK9 Civic Type R

    no, they arent that rare actually, quite easy to get a hold of. And go for reasonable money, the ek9's prices go by condition over anything else!

    My 172 and Mates EK9 Civic Type R

    You mean a facelift? only problem with that is it's a whole front end, bumper headlights wings bonnet and grille! He doesnt like the facelifts lol he is old school! says the Rx's came with metal pedals, red stitched gear knob, remote locking and were made in 00 (couple of other minor diff's)

    very rare optional extra fogs, think thats why he is reluctant to take them off!

    Inlet Manifold

    not in theory or reality!! rs manifold flows marginaly better, your re working it to make it flow even better so your not going to get any more gains when worked with an RS than you would get with a normal one.

    What colour calipers?

    not red, i hate red calipers unless they are brembo of course! blue as long as it was a perfect colour match to the car. dont know if that could of blue with black wheels would pull of yellow! maby with huge calipers and 300mm disks it would!

    Difficulty getting into gear.

    if your needing to keep the gate lifted up to get into first and 2nd then it sounds to me like your linkage needs re adjusted or an engine mount is completely gone. as for the op, change the gearbox oil first see how that goes, how many miles has it done on the current oil? is it only on...
