I had mine for a year with 100k on the clock and give it stick on a few occasions and the gearbox never let me down.

I say go for a Civic. Get a 4th Gen iVT and it'll be quick out of the box. Couple of mods and it'll not be shy. There, I said it.

No, an iVT Much lighter. B16a1 so it's slightly down on power. But get it stripped and a couple of mods it won't be shy. VTi's don't catch me, and a VTS/GTi won't catch a VTi. It's all relative!
