Most of the fastest track cars in Australia are B-series. Go figure. Just look at the proconcepts civic. One is a stroked b16a and the other k20a. Both similar setups, b-series car is always quicker.

stock k20 is pure porn/baller
high comp + built head b20 is also a very likely option
circuit car that will be street driven (ie cage would go in it)
this is all my future plans... some might say dreams XD
But in saying that 90% of the cars that are tracked are b series. K is a new thing over here and most of them are un opened. I think over the new few years the shift will move to K as its a better base to start from, now days it takes a built B to beat a standard K. But all this aside current standings are B is better, you only need to look at your success and Hi Power Racings CRX. Hopefully 12PIN will shake things up abit.Quote:

It all depends on the budget your willing to set for the project.Quote:

So the OP really needs to sit down and do the sums, talk to their builder/parts supplier and figure out roughly how much they want to spend; or can afford to spend and cover all the parts you need to modify your car to get it doing what you want it to do weather it be circuit racing or drag racing.
This has been a public announcement bought to you today by Haw Chew Gai Pow Phan.
