[zropts]

Hey guys,

which of the following engine is better for higher achievements and performance and when both engines comes to an full internal and external builds;

18c7 or K20a?

cheers

[Chi]

k20a because its smells nicer when u VTEC

[AsH_]

K20A ftw...

[rawr]

B series is funner but i'd have to say the k20 for performance. B series crossover yo!

[Benson]

how deep is your pockets? What kind of budget?

If money isnt the issue, of course the K20 engine is the more preferred.

[mr_vtec]

K swap FTW k24/k20.....

If money is no object...

Evo X

[wasabi]

if money is no object.. ferrari f50 ..


but k20a ftw =)

[fatboyz39]

[nvdvtc]

[Chuckz]

b18c7 :p

[nvdvtc]

ahhaha all the way yooo!!!!!! lolz whos got b18c7 around here???

[Drew]

K for performance
B for fun

[onlykillzz]

man why dont you just strock out and boost a k24 i mean it would cost like 20,000 to do all that but it would be sweet until it blows up after 20,000km beacuse of the 13,000rpm revs and the 40psi boost..... but it would be fun

p.s go the k20 displacement is almost always going to when if your staying n/a

[wasabi]

why is a b series more fun then a k series?

[nvdvtc]

b series is more fun becoz there alot 2 do to the b series the k series its no fun becoz there not much work coz they hav alot of power thats what i think

[Phamburger]

K series seem to be the preferred motor atm.

If you look at the b18c7 motors in the F.s section... there at a good price but no one seem to buying them. While there's alot of k20a and k20 hybrids build going on. So IMHO k seem to be the flavor atm.

Both engines are great....but how deep is your pocket...? You also need to consider other mods as well such as brakes, suspension, tuning, ecu, etc etc. You gotta pay for play :eek:.

*cough*

I think you need to drive some K series vehicles my friend :)
K can be just as "fun" as the B.

My preference, get the K,
More potential :)

Stock Rebuilt Bottom End + Toda Flywheel + Stock clutch
Head work - Type R IM +TB, Toda Cs, Ported, Toda Valve springs, KMS Engineering Titanium Retainers
Exhaust - Toda Headers + 2.5" system + Normal Cat + Resonator and XForce N1 Muffler
S100 Hondata

MFactory Close Ratio 3,4 & 5 Gears + 4.7 FD
MFactory Suspension Components + MFactory SwayBar and Tiebar
(For circuit work, a complete package is more important than just power alone)

Car is a totally street car with full interior trims, still running air conditioning and a sunroof.

All engine work and tuning has been performed by Adrian from Toda Australia.
I do my own suspension installation, alignment and setup

BUT

on Hindsight, if choosing a B Series engine...always go for the B18C, there's a whole lot more potential there and the prices are about the same anyway.

Thanks alot guys but money isnt an issue, I was thinking of getting a cheap b series and then conversion to K20a. I prefer the looks of B series.

cheers

the look of an engine :|?

to another post above b series crossover sounds/feels nicer to me that's why i say it's more fun.

[EG5]

fashion over function

[rawr]

but the k series looks so much prettier! you dont see jaws drop as much as wen someone with an eg pops open the hood and you see a kseries motor

oh well it's really personal choice :) Both engines are :thumbsup:
