the bore is the diameter of the cylinder and the stroke is the distance the piston travels during one cycle
the two numbers determie the displacement of the engine

What is so funny? I thought the point of this site was so people would help one another. If someone doesn't know something then why the hell you laughing. Why bother answering at all? I used to be on some honda sites and they all did that sh*t and it was f*cking annoying. If you got any other questions man just ask them. Don't listen to clikzip. If you want to do some research on engines a good place to start is How Stuff Works

kaos, i see where you're coming from and i agree with you 100%

but super dude did say that he knew 'quite a bit about cars', while his question was very basic (sort of contradicting himself).
so i can see where clikzip was coming from, but.........

i agree with kaos. we were all newbies at one time. we are all wrong at times.

don't start a flame war here guys. check out altimas.net for that

clikzip

it was out of line and im sorry

Its cool man I didn't want to sound like a dick or anything. It is just that coming from Honda forums it is just real annoying to hear that stuff. On all those Honda forums all those people do is tell you how stupid you are for not knowing or to go search. To me that defeats the purpose of having a forum.
