That is why a hatch is still a civic it is the same inside and out (execpt for the hatch) but the sol is different inside and out: interior, seats, tail lights, head lights, etc

i dont think thats a smart thing to do.
if you want to find out something about del sols, you have to wade through a lot of civic and el crap.
before you could just go right to the right forum.

Actually the reason the dropped the civic off of it from 95 and up was because the civics got a redesign and was release mid 95 and the del sol did not so it was no longer based on the current civic so the dropped the civic from the name, the 95 and up del sol are still just 92-95 civics with a differnt body.

If the Front of the Del Sol had been redesigned to match the 96 and up civics it would have still been called the Civic Del Sol

Touche' I did forget about the G1. IIRC it was a DOHC D motor though right? Nothing like any Civic motor evere to carray a D block designation?
