Dont get too concerned about all the technical details.....you'll slowly learn what there is to know about VTEC ...If your buying a halfcut, just look at the chassis plate code (blue one near grill)
1. B16A= EG6-xxx..,EG9-xxx..
2. B16B (Type R)= EK9-xxx...
3. B18C Type R = DC2 Type R-xxx..
Other than these codes, its probably some other type of VTEC......try to bring a friend or pomen along that knows a bit about VTEC. If you dont have any friends....just take lots of pic of the halfcut and post it here to verify what type it is..easy right.
If you find an EG to your liking, first of all check that its not a "kereta sambung"....then check the bodywork for any accident repairs (look around the near the engine compartment)..usually if the cars chassis is bent you can notice gaps larger than normal (door,fender, front....etc)..
Of course you wont find a 100% perfect condition car, a little kemik here & there is ok...but ripped chassis (koyak) is big no-no..
You can always strengthen back the chassis with strut bars & fender bars & etc....or spot weld the whole car for some real piece of mind....
Take the car for a tests drive and see how it feels & sounds...
thx to alto love ya! and kobra thx to u too xD
i know bout jointed car, but bout a perfect condition car, i think theres alot of things to concern bout arh.. like u say the chassis is bented, how i know the orginal gaps or if the craftmanship is very good and we cant find out that easily right?
its better we bring it to puspakom for a pro checking? o.O
but if the seller bribe to the puspakom ma also same? :(

Here to give some advise to those new comers, if u really wanna gain the knowledge, not only search from net, cos some info will not on net due to some reason.... so, if just tot u can just read from net, then u become expert, u'r dead wrong... u can just refer from net, but not talk big wit follow the net. as in Wiki, those info r just some1 who got some knowledge & free time to wrote it & edit it, and somemore, just playing the Number's Game...
If u think u can just copy & paste the net info then talking big all around, then u just a kid that telling every1 around u that ur father's cock bigger than other's father's cock...
Goto workshop, join the TT or join the Experts Clan such Avantech or Sasuke Racing or mayb those pro racer that race wit Hondas.... cos they do know the engine from top to toe by split up everything, not just talking big wit net info...
Honda forum do appear a lot of this kind of ppl b4, hope that kind of lazy culture won't last long in here... thats really unhealthy.
If some1 here not like how i'm saying on the above, then just continue ur Net Searching & keeping Talking Bullshit in anywhere...
Thanks.
