9th gen is best. I daily and track my 9th gen si

Holy crap! I was scrolling through vids and saw my actual car in your thumbnail haha. It's the 93 hatch with the red seats. Here is some info on the car if anyone cares: 93 Civic CX with a b16a2 swap out of the 2000 Si. The thumbnail photo was taken at Barber Motorsports Park in front of the car museum. It had the old red Tenzo R (RECARO Replica) seats but was switched out with some Buddy Club fixed backs shortly after. Car had basic bolt-ons and a Spoon N1 exhaust. Koni adjustable struts with Hypercoil springs, Integra Type R RSB, Si Disk brake upgrade, Rota GT3 wheels running Hoosier A6 Slicks, Kirk Racing cage and gutted rear cabin interior. That was during the JDM trend so I had quite a few things imported from JPN (Vision Technica corner lights, JDM tails, Spoon radiator hoses, Spoon N1, JDM fogs I never installed and a bunch of other stuff I can't remember right off hand). It competed in SCCA from 2007-2014 where I finally won the SMF championship that final year. I still own the car but it has not been driven since 2015 and just been tucked away in the back of my shop. Just starting to restore it but in no rush. Here is a link to an old video of it on my other channel: kzread.info/dash/bejne/oHln0a-HnpzJfJs.html Enjoyed the video btw! My favorite Si was the 99-00 though I never owned one. I honestly never paid much attention to Civics past 2000. The years after went to a McPherson strut setup and ditched the fantastic double wishbone suspension of the 88-00s. Not sure if that means anything to the stance crowd but it was a deathblow to us racers.

Dude thank you for this video. Thank you.

It’s a generational thing. When you were exposed, when you bought your first civic, etc. If you fell in love with VTEC, you’ll always have a soft spot for it

The first USDM Civic Si was a Gen 3 Civic introduced in 1986. There was also a 4th gen Si which was amazing. It had the double wishbone suspension like the 5th gen. The 5th gen was the first USDM with VTEC...yes the 1992 Si had VTEC, even if the valve cover didn't say it. It was a single cam model though.

Great overview, thank you. VTEC was special. You are right about the 8th gen. That said, as an all around car, I love my 10th gen SI. The chassis is amazing, brakes are insanely good, adaptive dampers, etc. Oh, and more midrange torque. Low redline sucks, and vtec was so cool, but the tradeoffs are there in spades. Now if only it had all this plus VTEC. Bone stock 10th gen is still a driver's car. Hard to argue with 0.97 g on a skidpad.

I think the FA5 and EM1 has the best visceral driving experience. When I was shopping for a car, I wanted something more on the comfy and daily side so I got a 9th. When I do eventually want to wrench on a truly visceral car, I'll probably get an NA or NB miata.

Redline may have shown as 8000 on the 8th gen but mine will happily rev past that to 8300 (and yes it's bone stock including the ecu).

10th Gen is the 1st turbo with DI engine Honda is manufacturing. I have read DI egineers have issue with carbon buildup in the intake valves due to where the injectors are located. DI engines inject fuel directly into the cylinders where combustion takes place. Because of this the valves can get very dirty with carbon buildup and will affect the engine's performance over time. The carbon buildup is a result of oil blowby. Whereas the PI engines inject fuel above the valves and in a way cleans them prior to reaching the the cylinders.I heard a catch can can be a solution to prevent the oil blowby to re-circulation back into the intake valves via pvc valve. The reason for me to bring this up is because I purchased a 2018 Civic si. Great to drive until I found out about potential issues with DI engines.
