Difference's between Jordan & Vti are;
Type R kit minus front grille!
Two tone leather interior
A few extra's inside - ie armrest....
Air Con
Tis a decent little car!!
It has the B16A2 engine, running around 165ish bhp
Ive only done a few mods - Arospeed SS back box, HKS SPF induction kit with custom cold air feed & SS Decat pipe!!
Hopefully Ill be sorting out a SS manifold next month

I'm thinking about getting a 1.6 vti but how hard is it to find a Joran? and what sort of price would I be expected to pay?
Nice car mate

Looks nice mate, prefer them on dark wheels tho
Principal of VTEC's is to rev the nuts off them, they go like stink and r nice all round reliable cars
the vti's r still very nice cars jordan is just a bit more special

Jordans aren't that much at all, and depending on the model/age you can get older ones for alot cheaper
VTI-s is the shape after the jordan one (the 1.8 vti-s)

I paid £7.3k for the Jordan 18months ago, could probably sell it for about the same now
The Jordan is basically a limited edition of the Vti! There were onyl 500 made & a few have been wrote off since then
The Vtec engine is good, but as Tom said u have to rag the nuts off em to keep em going!!!

We kept with an rx8 (must've been a 180 but still) in my mates the other day upto about 120 exiting motorway to dual carrage way
that's the older one too.
I can vouch for the kick in the ass VTEC my bro's got an accord type r, that thing flies
Appologies for not seeing the 1.6 vti-s i've never heard of them.

its a 1.6 like your gsi engine and has about the same amount of torque but over 50bhp more......why do you dislike it again?
