2001+ 1.8 sxi's and sri's have the z18xe engine which has 123bhp, 2.0 sri's have the x20xev, which is 134bhp and the 1.8 sport's have the x18xe1 which is 115bhp, not a lot in them for acceleration etc, but the 2001+ 1.8 sxi/sri is the best of the lot, but a bit more expensive.

just thought i would let you know, i had a 1.8 sport, plenty acceleration and nice top speed for such a comfy and well built car.

all of the above come with abs, power steering and electric windows, but only a few come with the irmscher kit as it is an option when you buy it new.

if you wan't the z18xe engine then yes, prob the best engine of the bunch, but it is well more expensive than the sport, prob looking £5000+. dunno what the prices are down there though.
