[McChook]

EGs rock the joint....

[Milk]

THNX MATE!

[civicboy]

[McChook]

When I get me a new job, I am building me an EG superweapon. We're talking strip it, no aircon, no stereo, B20Vtec, JDM style weapon.

Just need money and a job. HELP!!!!

[Milk]

hehe thnx guys
just that my friend is very very inconsistent so he screwed me up very very nicely lol

[civicboy]

wat car do u have now? i thought your cars good/fast enough?

[McChook]

98 Prelude VTiR

Its great, I love it, but... its heavy, it isn;t really an extreme racing beast... I would consider the EG as a project car - then race it... I mean, I already have a racecar too, but thats a skyline... kinda want a civic...

Unless I can get an EP3 Civic Type R that is.... I'd ditch the prelude in an instant

[Milk]

i got a skyline now but will be sold soon
yes...i was getting my friends EF..coz its 4000 and i dont have money more thant that ...i was poor lol
then now my friend screwd me up by saying yes i can drive the car and now NO i cant drive it!
i need the car for work for god sakes! on sunday
so i rang up my auntie to ask her for $7000 and say pay her back when i have money by the end of this month:)
and she says ok !!! i feel like giving her a kiss now!
so i am taking the EG civic
the buyer say shes selling for $8500....and shes going overseas in next 2 weeks
u think i can talk down to $7000? what u guys think?

worst thing is i ordered recaro seats for it..waiting to come
and i got my rims...having trouble fitting it...now can i fit 15 x7 rims on the EG?

and lucky i havent order angel eyes yet
will do soon ........

[McChook]

offer her $7000 cash in hand - she won't take it, females espeially get cut up when people tell them a rpice, or they think a car is worth a price - then someone tells them it is not worth it - I did it once and got threatened..

Mayve girl to girl you wil be OK

[Milk]

hhaha
i talk to her on the fone just then she seems easy going
if i say 7000 and she is not happy
then i would say lets take a middle range....7500...then u happy i happy am i rite there lol
its stock...and wich i like it so i can mod it myself
once again will be resprayed to black lol...:D
and would the 15 x7 black racing pro n1 fit this car now?
/me worries still
and shes going overseas for good...so shouldnt be a prob if talk to her and give her 7000 or 7500 cash on monday and she can fix the rwc and stuff
then i can put my QTMILK no.s plate on it hehehehe

[McChook]

hahahaha, a hektik number plate.. fully sick 4U2NVMECOZ14M2QT4U

what colour is it now??

The wheels would fit... but 16s would look better

[Milk]

haha
its silver...
i got 15" coz i reckon then my car can run faster:D
u know shauns rims...i got it off him...and it didnt fit the ef i was panicking whole day...now i dont have 2 coz i getting EG tmr ...well fixed done by next week

[McChook]

..not really, but hey!!

Egs are better anyway

is it an si/gl/gli/vti....

[Milk]

i have no idea mate:D
its 95 model so what it comes?
does it really matters?( i doubt the chick will drive si)~_~
if i am putting in a b18c in it later...or b16a(do i come with it?) does the engine type really matters?

[McChook]

well, being a 95, putting a B series engine in isn't too bad, as it must have EFI. Would be best if it was a Vti as it will have a Vtec Controller, making wiring much easier...

but ya never know what she'll have... prolly a gli...

[Milk]

ye gli...does that matters alot?
if i wanna make it vt-r?

[McChook]

yeah, doesn;t have a VTEC controller - but doesn;t make it impossible, just not as easy... but it has EFI, so thats a plus...

[LatinoHatchCrap]

WTF is VTEC controller?? are you referrinf to the extra wiring which is required for the VTEC soleniod once a VTEC motor is swaped?? Vicky just call me if you wana know more about swaps. you've seen my car LOL :)

-Joe

[w_civic]

Eg > ef :D

[Milk]

thnx joe:)
thts later lol
if i get eg then i wont have $$ for modz for at least 3 months

[Milk]

haha
i am dreaming
havent got the car yet...but fingers crossed she would sell no more than $7500~_~coz i am broke lol

[Bumble B]

Hey!

If it's a GLi, and you're planning a conversion, you need to upgrade rear brakes... umm I'm not sure what else you gotta change.

[Milk]

thanx B:)
are all brakes disc or drum ?
i will figure that out in June....lol

[Setanta]

a) Your friend doesn't have an EF, he has an ED

b) EF > ED > EG > EK

Nothing anyone says will make me believe otherwise :)

[Milk]

haha ok then lol

[Setanta]

I'll be in Bendigo tomorrow if you want to see a real EF :P

[Milk]

haha i will be waiting for a testdrive mate:D
sorz and bendigo far from me lol i will get lost

[A'PEXi]

vti-r i think is what you were meant to say in your post b4... ek4 vti-r b16a... or you could go for the eg6 sir b16a... 7500 is an alright price i guess... see what she says :P

[Milk]

yeh coz the KM is HIGH my god lol shes been taking it to great wall of china for 100 times
hm...which engine easier to find here?:D
ye i think no more than 7500 that car lol

[McChook]

fugg them all off and go B20Vtec

[Milk]

b20vtec is what?
how much?where can get?

[McChook]

n00b

do a search

B20 is the CR-V bottom end, and use a B16a head. User Tinkerbell on this forum has one, he knows a lot about it. It is the best way to go, nuffin' better....

[vti-2]

b20vtec is what?
how much?where can get?

EG all the way.

In reference to your question above, do a search on "B20VTEC" or "engine swaps" or "engine conversions" and i'm sure you will find heaps of threads that have discussed this at length.

Basically though, a B20 is a CRV block. What people do is mate the bottom end of a B20 to the B16A top. It's also referred to as a 'Frankenstein'. :)

[w_civic]

i reckon go for b18c for shure...well b20 is cheaper but if u didnt install it properly then it'll crack...i've seen 4 of cars already...so think abt it

[McChook]

i reckon go for b18c for shure...well b20 is cheaper but if u didnt install it properly then it'll crack...i've seen 4 of cars already...so think abt it

B20 Cheaper?? depends how you do it, And I have NEVER seen one crack, and I have seen a lot. Get a decent engine builder. Charlie @ good performance is the man, never known one of his B20s to die...

[kleenex]

wheres charlies at??

[Milk]

i get b16a:D
haha i am poor as:(
thnx bubs

[LatinoHatchCrap]

guys how many of you actually run crvtecs?? just wondering 'cose I wouldnt tell anyone to get something unless I ran it myself. Personally I would only do a crvtec if I had a beater aorund. Plus remember with tuning and all other shit involved its no easy task by far COMPARED to an engine swap which USUALLY its nice, clean and reliable. Im no trying to diss anyone but I would like to hear from those who actually run the setup and their opinions rather than those who want others to do it 'cose they only dream that they could do it themselves...

-Joe

PS: Vicky: why dont you tell us what you want out of your car and what its mostly gona be used for (street/drag/track/show??). This would make it easier for us to help you :)

[Milk]

hi joe...i wanna it to be a track show car:)
i want efficiency of looks and power all together
but i do not want extreme looks:D
thanks joe and friends

[LatinoHatchCrap]

track/show car sounds like all you need then is a nice paintjob a front lip.

[SP0017]

wait LHT, whats a track/show car? :)

[Milk]

hehe
i am getting a buddy club front bar first for bodykit
and on goes shaun's black racing rims lol
and on goes the recaro seats when the arrive
and on goes angel eye headlights
then on goes vickii zoom zoom zoom:D

[s2k]

Just to let you know milk, i saw one on ebay and eg sedan with 121000km, 1992, it says it has all electric, so i guess its a GLI but it was not stated.
he is asking $8000, has 17s and lowered, looks nice, its a blue colour aswel,

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2459882629&category=35 227

that is the tread on ebay, have a look you might be interested, has a nomber to call aswell, not sure where you are from, but i think the car is from sydney

[Milk]

thanks s2k :)
i got my civic already hehe just driving for free for the first month lol
dont have to pay my friend until 14/03/04 lol how lucky lol
coz i dont have $$ now lol...free drive :P
and my civic is hatch and yellow:D
i dont really like sedan...but never mind 1 if 92' is 6000 :D

[w_civic]

but seriously....go ask ur mechanics which one is better b20 or b18c? for shure they will recoment b18 for both track or street use...most ppl install b20 for track/drag purpose...

trust me i've seen 4 cars wif b20 block engine cracked but NONE with b18c so far.

b20 block instalment cost between 4k-5k n b18c around 6-8k...the choice is urs milk :P

i recomment Technick Tunning (ART) or BMT for engine swap, their the best so far in melb i reckon n quite famous also :)

[Setanta]

And yet Tinkerbell has CRVTEC running in his Integra XSi with no issues and ALLMTR has drag raced his street driven 12 second Civic and neither have had any issues with the B16/B20 combo. Go figure.

Most psople who do the frankenstein conversion and have issues with it try to do it on the cheap and screw up the build.

B20 block for 4-5 grand? WTF? You must be shopping at the wrong places I think

[Milk]

thanks guyz
is that just the engine or half cut?
how much price diff in both (b16a / b18c)
