          Less valvetrain to run = more overall efficiency

          A "Finished" project car is never finished until its been sold.

          If at first you don't succeed, Try again. Don't give up too easily, persistance pays off in the end.

            Yeah... I'd still rock one, but I'll probably get a first gen. Haha.

              Similar to their Non-Hybrid counterparts.
              The Accord, and the Accord hybrid are pretty identical whereas the Civic and the Civic hybrid are very different (engine wise).
              Same suspension, sames brakes (i believe the Acc Hybrid has the v6 6spd coupe front brakes).

              The 1st gen Insight is the real odd ball.

              The last Hybrid i worked on was a 2008 Civic. Had to replace the IMA battery.
              Thats the big hybrid battery behind the rear seat.
              That was crazy, one shock from that would be enough to kill you.

                Under warranty? What was the fault?

                    IMA Battery deterioration.

                    Under warranty, the car only had like 300miles.
                    So i had to call the Honda Techline and get conformation from them to replace it.
                    It took like 2 months to get a new Battery since it had to be built and shipped from Japan.
