B16 or B18

[TypeG]

I am looking into putting a B16A or B18C2 engine in my eg..... I just wondering which one will have more potential

[Mixtapes]

b18c2 for sure its got more guts b18c's are just good with i/h/e, mates b18 vs. other mates crx b16, crx never wins both stock. if that helps.

b18c2 if its the same price... although if u get the b16a and get bored of it
all you then need to have a bit more fun is a B20 block get some b20vtec action happening...
of course its not as easy as 1,2,3 its always gunna cost


of course info on this has been covered numerous times... hav a search to find out
wat u wana do...

A B18C will give u more torque which means more low rev grunt. There is no comparison, b18c has a dual stage intake mainfold and is a meaty engine. Its more xpensive tho', but well worth it. It is a truly legendary engine.

i think b18c must have more potential, by the way, if you are handing eg, i think b16a is more suitable for you. Because i think b18c in EG ll be quick powerful, which it's not easy to handle it.

Also, im the new user of OZhanda forum, would you mind ask me how to have a post here, coz i got a rims wanna post and sell here. Anyway, thanks for the helping.

... are you kidding ? Cos 1.8 or 2.0 in a 1000kg shell does not mean it'll become a straight line racer.
I have a b16 in my EG shell and I can tell you it's a nice little engine, revs happily but it's pretty boring after a while, I'd listen to everyone that's advises you to go b18c.

b18c for sure, not that hard to handle, is it?
always good to have better brakes n suspension.
when i did mine 2 yrs ago,i only change the front brake to DC2 VTiR brake, it was enough. everything else was stock, still drive like before i put the engine.

dont know how many times i have seen this topic.

o btw, if u want to have a drag car down the track, consider the money u get from selling the EG, plus the money u will spend on engine conversion, then u better of buying 180SX or GTST R32 or R33

wow..

b16 is 1.6

b18 is 1.8 L

what do you think is better? if you cant afford b18.. get the b16 and save abit then turbo the fuker!!!

[TypeG]

The cost of putting a b18 in is around $1k-1500 more. I am more into getting the car on track and as well daily driving.....
i dun like nissan and turbo at all and i love Honda hehehe

[SHOGUNOVDDRK]

Get the B18.

IMO ATM there is a bit of a price drop on B18C7's, there are some COMPLETE packages going for 4K-6K where previously you were looking at a good 6+K as a base,

Keep a eye and ear out for one and jump when you find one.

If you have the funds now there are a few good deals on Ozhonda alone.
