da9 - best bang for the buck engine conversions?

wat ? off the ground?

its 100mm of ground here (vic)
and im pretty sure im dumped as haha

don't really know haha i wasn't looking when he measured it. wouldnt be from the ground though its no crv. maybe from centre of the wheels to the guard?

thats screwed up lol
thats like massive gap still lol, idk no idea
ah well, u got coilovers or somethin? easy fix?

yeah, the raise i have to do is minimal so it makes little difference really, skunk2 setup and the wheels are pretty much tuckin

hahaha fair call
i cud tuckif i wanted but currently sittin on 17s so guards line up with tyres

Hey Ben, my install was just under 5g all up but that was 7 years ago when I knew nothing about motors etc. Included a B16 box instead of the B18C one and new clutch etc.

Thanks for posting that up about the ride height, I have been meaning to look it up. My car is still as high as it can go from the transport back from sydney 2 years ago.
Changed some suspension recently and gonna drop it back to legal height befor I get an alignment. BTW it is from the centre of the wheel to the top of the guard

you should low is a lifestyle..until you get defected. i have 17s as well and haven't even had my guards rolled, there is like 2mm between the tyre wall and the inside of the guard though haha. really want 15s or 16s of some rota track r's in white!!

haha my tyres hit inside of the guard , on a 3/4 lock :P
haha im changing to buddyclub p1s 16s

ok cool thanks for that and that was with other people doing the work for you?

thats fine just trying to do my part for the honda community. Thats odd, 350mm seems a lot from centre of wheel to the guard.

yeah stevo i hate that sound of expensive rubber chafing

How much power does a B20vtec put out, roughly the same as a B18c? figures are all over the place on the web.

And i am still confused to why a F22b (120kw, 200nm..round $500 with everything minus tranny) is a bad option? using a h2b kit $900 (which apparently will work with f engines) means you can use the same mounts (would buy new ones anyway...$300), axle and trans already in the DA... http://www.quartersportsdrag.com/FAQ.html

would certainly make it a unique DA.

B20VTEC with I/H/E tends to make about 110-115kw ATW from what I have seen done previously. Lots of torque too, spin into second, spin into third.

If you want torque for $3g max then this is probably a good option for you and it'll be plenty of power I assure you.
