I’ve worked up the bravery to get it into VTEC a few times, and it hasn’t punished me…

…yet.

    I once had a '96. Great car but non VTEC. Blew the head gasket about 16 years ago and that was the end of that.

        A lot of cars in the 90’s have pretty serviceable head gaskets, I had to change the two of them on my subaru forester, and if you’re experienced in the process it’s a rather quick fix since you dont need to lift the engine

      I have a 96 as well. VTEC. Has a warped head I think. Never had the money to get it fixed properly. So much heat tape holding the exhaust together… Makes me sad.
