lol yeh ill take it off asap i need to take the number plate holder off and just put it to the bumper will do that when i can b bothered...
the people that owned the car put the tow bar on afterwards and the people who installed it did a bad job and left the tail light gasket out and then water leaked into there but its been fixed now i just need to get rid of it

well first of all you can take off your tail lights, and front bumper and then send them to me... lol only kidding, i rekon get some nice wheels (not chrome), and then lower it and your set, oh and also get rid of the towbar. But over all great choice... love the colour!!

lol lose the eye lids when you take off the tow bar.. lower with 18's and your set.. then b18c swap :D

lol no offense but people who say b18a's are just as good as doing up b18c's are the biggest noobs when it comes to honda's, b18a can only match a c when turbo'd but what if some one were to turbo a c? From what i've seen its b18c all the way, tho i am a bit of a biast one because i have this thing where i wanna show all turboers that NA can and will pwn them :p
Oh and get a wing, it helps to make our cars look like less of a silvia.

i ve beaten v8 and supercharged v6 commos in my gsi and taken 2 vtir tegs at drags, rexis, sr20det silvias, xr6s, got beaten by 3tenth of a second by a ITR with same mods as me (I,E,H) sure they all had a higher term speed, just shows ya that what matters most is the driver :)
all HONDA motors have their PROS and CONS.
i used to think B18A/B was a crap motor but with the right mods it can stand up to its VTEC brothers
A-man
24-12-2005, 12:52 PM
before i do any swapping id wana drive a vtec donk
i dont like the wings i thinkthey look tacky
IN73GZ
24-12-2005, 03:44 PM
locote speaks much truth!!!!
however i do agree with b18cfreak aswell. the b18c is a mad engine to work with but my b18a keeps up with most cars and shames many.
and YES there is nothing like seeing a NA engine smack da **** outa a turbo car. or a v8 for the matter.
b18cfreak
24-12-2005, 04:19 PM
lol locote, bring on any b18a i'll take em ;)
A-man
24-12-2005, 04:55 PM
maybe l8r a b18c will be dropped in until then ill keep the b18a
wot does people think of the tail lights??? on that site
SKREMN
24-12-2005, 05:17 PM
being somone who has had both engines i liked the b18a when i had it and it was faster then your v6 commordore ect.
but once i had vtec i'll never going back
had b18a block with b16a head still not the best block to work with it didnt satsfy me
ohh and i dont like the tail light make i think it look cheep
locote
24-12-2005, 07:22 PM
b18cfreak im sure your car will kick the crap out of my from looking at the mods its had.
when i state the cars ive beaten, im still running 9.2:1 compresion ratio, and a gearbox that was not intended for quik acceleration.
and lets not forget b18b cams are no way near as agressive as B18c cams :)
IN73GZ
24-12-2005, 10:55 PM
yeh exactly, both engines are good for what they are, the b18a doesnt hardly compare to the b18c, but for what it is, the b18a can still have a fair bit of punch against most cars.
b18cfreak
25-12-2005, 12:30 AM
hehe just to clarify i drove my car around with the standard b18a for a year before i converted to vtec, the b18a is a pretty tough engine no doubt about it... but if you are looking to make your DA go fast (I mean kick crap outa 200's and suby's fast) then vtec is the way, though if you aren't really fussed on full on performance and just want a little kick then stick with b18a, h / i / e and do a computer chip and you'll be set.. lol my car when i had the b18a used to smoke commodores and falcons, was always a laugh :D
locote
25-12-2005, 12:33 AM
a lot of parts in the LS/GSI are not designed for performance(ie, header, intake, gbox, suspencion, cams, compresion, flow of cyl head) just to name a few get a good package together and the LS/GSI wont be the push over ppl think.
locote
25-12-2005, 12:40 AM
no way youl kick the crap out of silvias that have been moded!!
i had a S15 with just bolt on breathing mods running stock turbo and on my low boost setting 8psi i demolished to s2000's that had 3 times as much spent on them at same work shop that i went to.
one of them had 240rwhp i only had 210rwhp and he got raped!!!!!
ITR's were even easier to beat, never raced a turboed honda but.
i would have loved to have given QBALL a run but!!
locote
25-12-2005, 12:41 AM
most rexis unless thy have a lot of mods arent realy that quik.
i was dead even with 1 last i was at drags and it wasnt stock:)

eye lids look abit weird.. >.<
I reckon with the tail lights get some 90/91 stock tail lights and use the degreaser/warm water method to bleach the pink lines to white lines. It looks hell and its not too rice lookin. And its also cheap to do :D
A-man
06-01-2006, 01:34 PM
heaps of guys rekon its ricy now coz everyone doin it but i still like it aswell...

06-01-2006, 06:09 PM
Bleached taillights is considered rice?
Our 90-91 taillights originally came red lines thru white top with a red bottoms.. and over time they have become pink. Just to sort of get rid of the old look we have cleaned them up. I drool over my car everytime i see its rear! BAHAHA!
If you talking about sumfin else.. Ignore me :P

Hey man its lookin clean but definately lose the eyelids. they look cheap. as for the tails go 89-91 tails and clear em out definately the best look on the LS. Those Altezzas are shit imo, they look cheap too. As for the wing i prefer none, i think it looks cleaner, i plan on shaving my boot of the wing and badges for a cleaner look.
A-man
09-01-2006, 11:58 PM
yeh im off to the wreakers tmrw to c if he will swap em for a 91 ls tails and im thinkin bout taken em off and maybe gettin some fibreglass ones made and cover up the WHOLE headlight when i drive during the day
they look sick i rekon...
wot does people think of colour coding the side things????
