    good day masters!

    im planning on buying my first car, I already made up my mind that im going to get a honda civic... my budget is around 200k - 250k. Im torn in getting a 97 or a 99 civic.

    just want to know the difference between the VTec engines. difference on horse power, fuel consumption, etc...

    thanks in advance and more power.

    Sir, there's no such thing as VTEC 1, 2 or 3....

    Pero for VTEC systems, mero tayong:

    VTEC-e = For "economy", not for power...has 12 valve mode, no wildcam*
    VTEC = The common vtec (JDM).. for power through wildcams
    VTEC (3-stage) = implementation of both vtec-e and vtec systems; the only engine that uses 3-stage is the d15b

    Of course, add to those yung bago ngayon, which is yung i-VTEC...
