nope, no vtec. 1/4 mi times are like low-mid 16's stock. 4x100 is the bolt pattern.

I had a 90 Si with an automatic before I got my current lude. It's not all that bad. It has a weird "Sport Shift" mode that raises the shift points and lets you hold 3rd gear.

No one makes a CAI specifically for the 3rd gens. I've seen some put in a CAI from a ITR, which puts the filter down inbetween the radiator and tranny. You can also get a short ram from a 92-95 civic, which will put the filter in the space behind the battery.

Most prefab CAI's that I've seen for 3rd gen's require the relocation of the battery. I, however, have not seen everything.

Unless there's some kind of shield or guard, I wouldn't want to run it straight down. It's mostly all open there and not far from the ground. Too easily damaged or possibility for problems I would suspect.
