Fast Facts:
  • The Civic Si was powered by the B16A2 (the “B” refers to dual overhead cams, “16” refers to 1.6L). As one of the high-strung variants of the B-Series engine family (like the Integra Type R’s B18C5), this motor pushed the boundaries of mass-produced, high RPM engine technology. With its oversquare design, the B16A2 can rev to 8,000 RPM and produce 1 hp per cubic inch – all while providing 26/31 MPG and worry-free Honda reliability
  • Very few manufacturers offered an engine of this high-strung nature in the late 90’s (most were going turbo or V8) – the ones that existed either weren’t mass produced or weren’t nearly as reliable. Even the M3’s S52 from BMW’s M division could only produce .75 hp per cubic inch … and it made peak hp at a measly 6,000 RPM
  • In addition, the B16A2 was designed to last well over 100k miles before needing a rebuild (unlike most other high-revving engines at the time), and no special maintenance was required by Honda (such as regular valve lash adjustment intervals)
  • The high RPM achievement was due to several factors. Special pistons are employed that feature high silicone content – silicone increases a piston’s thermal stability, allowing it to withstand a wide range of temperatures. This is necessary for the high speeds (and therefore high temperatures) that 8,000 RPM entails. The pistons also feature a low-friction coating on the skirts
  • The block is all aluminum and features a forged steel crankshaft (fully counterweighted) and forged steel rods with oversized bolts for increased strength. The oiling system is incredibly well designed on these engines – so well that no engine failures are ever reported due to an oiling issue
  • While the B-series engine family consists of many variations (B16, B17, B20, etc), only 2 short blocks are used between the entire lineup. The only difference between the two blocks is the deck height
  • The variations between each engine are the result of different pistons, rods and crankshafts. All engine parts are interchangeable between the B-Series motors, as well as transmissions
  • In addition to the special engine, the Si sees handling improvements from progressively valved shocks, a front strut-tower brace, and firmer springs and sway bars
Key Model Year Changes:
  • The EM1 generation Si was only built for 2 years (1999 and 2000)
  • 2000 models receive rear child restraints and optional removable cup holder insert (for smaller cups)
  • Virtually no changes between 1999 and 2000 models. Honda left the 2000 MY Civic lineup untouched to focus on the redesigned 2001 model
