The end of an era.....

That looks amazing bud, get it fitted, its a 10 minute job!!!

Looks stunning mate, nice one!! Im well jealous!!! Well done Dawn, we got there in the end ey?!!!

Really good job there mate, you can paint my VTI-S front lip when i actually get round to getting one!!

Massive respect for doing a flywheel change on your back without a ramp!! Top job, well done!!!

Lookin' great mate, looking forward to seeing her in the metal on Sat!!

Lets see some pics then???

Looking sweet mate, you thought about a spoiler to finish off the rear, a normal VTI one would be cheap and would look cool?!!

Nice!!

Removing the resenator doesn't really do anything other than give you a throatier noise when accellorating hard!!! There is a 'How To' in the how to section mate!!

x2, we demand pics!!

Done!

That looks sweet bud, goes well with the strut brace etc!!

Dont forget to add pics of your VTI-S's when you post guys if you can!!

Ok, the winner for civic5.com C.O.T.M for December 2009 is Dave, well done bud!! You better go and do your showcase for your own car now then!!!!!!

They do go in but you need someone to change your rails. they look well nice when fitted!!!

Yeah it sits a bit high i suppose, but it would look a tad lower with the VTI-S lips on it.........oh Dave, whats taking so long?????

Looking really nice mate, great shots!!

Ok ok, I know, we haven't got i-VTEC, but I have had a few members ask me how it works, and how it differs from our VTEC, so heres an explaination on what it is and how it works!! Its a bit difficult to explain without pics, but here goes.... VTEC/VTC The i-VTEC system has another unit that works with the VTEC called a VTC (Variable Valve Timing Control). It is situated on the end of the intake camshaft. This mechanism improves fuel efficiency and reduces exhaust emissions at all levels of engine speed, vehicle speed and engine load. The VTEC mechanism changes the valve lift and timing by using more than one cam profile. (like ours! ) The VTC changes the phase of the intake camshaft via oil pressure. It also changes the intake valve timing continuously. So.... At light loaded running (cruising), the VTC is in its Base Position. At this point the cam angle is retarded to reduce the entry of exhaust gas into the intake port and to achieve stable fuel consumption during lean burn. At medium/high loaded running, the VTC is in its Advance Control position. At this point the VTC advances the cam angle for the EGR effect and to reduce the pumping loss. The intake valve is closed quickly to reduce the entry of the air/fuel mixture into the intake port and improve the charging effect. At high speed running, the VTC is in its Advance-Base position. At this point the cam phase angle is controlled for optimum valve timing and maximum engine power. The VTC also reduces the cam advance at idle, stabilizes combustion, and reduces engine speed. If a malfunction occurs, the VTC system is disabled and the valve timing is fixed at the fully retarded position. VTEC The VTEC system changes the cam profile to correspond to the engine speed. It maximizes torque at low engine speeds and output at high engine speeds. So basically, it has the same kind of VTEC as us, but with the added extra of being able to constantly adjust the timing for the best performance at all engine speeds, wether you are booting it or driving normally. this helps the fuel economy, emissions and best of all, performance!! Thats why its called "i-VTEC", the "i" satnds for intelligent!! So there you go, hopefully you all understand it now.....

Cheers Dawn, i really didnt think i would beat the mighty VTI-S!! Well chuffed!!

Really sorry guys, if you have voted already, can you please vote again, as civicboy has now been removed. Cheers guys...!!

Ok guts, nominations are in, get voting for Civic5.com's Car Of The Month December '09!!!
