Mista Bone I'm 63. JFK was killed on my 13th birthday, 11/22/63. Old Man Honda died in 1991. The VX was the crowning achievement of his life's work, in my opinion. A practical 4 passenger car that could pull 60+ MPG with some driving techniques at very close to Interstate highway speeds. When in lean burn mode both intake valves were open but one was just barely open. This created turbulence which enhanced homogenization of the fuel air mixture and allowed AF ratios to approach 25to1.

Was it powerful or high perfromance, nope. Have some of the modders made serious perfromance improvements while maintaining high efficiency?

I think pgfpro is the same person I read his work with performance mods on a 3 stage V-TEC engine on another forum. His dedication to performance AND ECONOMY was admirable although maybe not well appreciated by many. My field of specialty was the first generation Nissan-Datsun Z-cars. I had one that would run with a Z 28 and still pull 28 MPG and I replaced the 3.54 diff with a 3.90 for better performance. The 3.54 with a.754 overdrive 82 ZX 5 speed gave me almost the identical overall final drive ratio of the VX. My 76 ZX had dash adjustable mixture using the water tempsensor circuit. Z cars were fuel injected in 1975. I remember begging my POP (still alive at almost 93) to help me buy a 47 Lincoln Continental Convertible in 1967. I remember a mid 30s Cadillac V16 Limo with the open drivers compartment for $3500 and a 70 Barracuda hemi convertible for $2500. I knew every year, make and model of virtually every car on American highways from 1936 to 1966 when I was 15.
