Is Honda doing anything interesting?
I know there's ASIMO, Honda's humanoid robot. I'm doing a project and I need another topic about something Honda is doing; something worthy of reading. Any ideas?
Might I recommend getting onto Honda's corporate website. You'll get a good idea of where the company is headed.
Honda recently tested its new small business jet. And like Honda's 'Power of Dreams' engineering teams, the jet represents a unique departure in aircraft airframe design.
Honda is finishing beta testing of their new Hydrogen powered family sedan… It will be available within a year.
Honda is tussling over what its replacement for its famed NSX sports car will be… Lots of talk on the blogs.
Honda just released its 8th generation Accord coupe to the media. It's soon to release the sedan version, along with some other flagship cars such as the '08 Acura TL… A complete re-engineer of the platform is likely.
Honda is soon to release its newest iteration of its famed VTEC engine, known as 'Advanced VTEC'. It will likely appear on certain '08 models, bringing significant gains in both power & fuel economy. The description of its operation is intriguing.
Honda just entered for '07 into the world of ALMS (American Le Mans Series) racing, through the ACURA brand. HPD (Honda Performance Development of Santa Clarita, CA) has developed the Honda 3.4L V8 motor, and is testing it in two European chassis under the auspices of three racing teams (Andretti-Green being one). In fact, Honda took 1-2 in its class during the very first race of the season! This is an up & coming series to watch… Heretofore dominated by Audi & Porche.
Honda continues to dominate the IRL (Indy Racing League), now for the 3rd year as sole engine supplier. There's a story behind the story re how HPD manages to excel at the job of providing all these 700 hp race engines and with stellar Honda reliability.
'HONDA, THE POWER OF DREAMS'
Snooky is right on. Honda is also one of the best engineer companys and the largest manufacturer of internal combustion engines in the world

- Dealer told me it was a Honda Certified pre-owned car, but I never received anything from Honda saying so? What should i do? The car now needs repairs and the dealer lied to me about the certification. Do I have any rights?
- What am I doing wrong while shifting? When riding my motorcycle (Honda CBR 1000 RR) while shifting from 3rd to 4th I hear some grinding sound, and if I keep the throttle held down after the grinding stops the bike lurches forward and then rides like usual. Am I shifting up to early, too late, or what? This only happens sometimes.
- I'm thinking about doing an engine swap. B series vtech or K series vtech? I have a 2000 honda ek coupe with a d series vtech, but I'm looking to upgrade the power without the use of forced induction. My best bet is an engine swap but I'm still deciding between a b20 vtech or a k20 vtech. Which one would give me more power and what parts will I need?
- Can a 16.L engine fit into a 1998 Honda Civic LX? (before doing engine swap)? I had an blown motor on my 1998 Honda Civic LX, I have new spark plugs, distributor cap and some other items, however, since the old spark plugs happened to be melted as well, I have no option other to do a engine swap. I've been doing some research, and it seems like I only have the 1.6L engine as a option. By the way, the blown motor is a D16Y8, and is automatic.
