Thanks mate much appreciated :D. I made sure I did my research. Being a user on another forum for 6 years, I know how frustrating it is to read threads and *facepalm*Quote:

I still have the EG Breeze and I still love it, despite the fact that my girlfriend severely dented the quarter rear panel and passenger door. She took a corner too close and there was a big ass metal pipe protecting the corner of the building. Soft EG shell VS Metal = Metal Wins
Anyway, long story short, after that happened it was time for a new car. I had the usual n00b questions, DC2 vs DC2R, DC2 vs Prelude, DC2r vs Prelude Vti-r, DC5 VS DC2R, DC5R vs DC2R, EP3 Vs DC2R/DC5R etc etc etc. To no surprise, all these questions were answered by all you loving folk at Ozhonda and now I have a DC5R!!!!!!!!
Man this car drives insanely well compared to the good ol' breeze!!! I LOVE IT!!! I picked it up yesterday and today put RE002's on the front.
Anyway, big thanks to all the Ozhonda members out there who provide super useful information, you have made my car decision buying easier!!
Love Love

as for your question about b series - that is a variant of the series of engines which Honda has made, they come in d series, b series, j series, f series, k series and maybe more thats all i can think off from the top of my head . they come in sohc (single overhead camshaft) and dohc (double overhead camshaft) as well as vtec and non vtec . your eg breeze is a d series, d13b2 (same engine as my old breeze) carby 1.3 L Non vtec. yeah i agree with you this engine is hella slow , but got me from point a to point b. Also from my experienced Honda have very reliable engines, my breeze engine never failed on me.
modifcations: yes modifications are usually illegal in most states .. but many people still do it. i myself have never been asked to pop the bonnet of my any of my cars (well any of my hondas) my old toyota cynos got its hood popped and it had a pod filter sticking out (not secured) cops didn't say a thing , just waned to make sure i wasn't running a turbo ( as i'm on provisionals) . You have 2 choices for better air flow , either short ram intake (short pipe to pod filter - go k&n filters my recommendation) , or CAI (cold air intake) - longer pipe which connects to pod filter , but pod filter is tucked behind the tyre out of sight. Advantages of the CAI are that it gives always cold air , however disadvantages would be water getting in and harming your engine. For my breeze i just had a pod filter mushroom pod connected to the carby. When attaching the pod filter onto your carby you can take the clips of your carby and removing the stock filter then clip back on your carby. As for exhaust, i wouldn't really bother , however better flow is always sufficient. You could get a straight through 2 " exhaust (any more and you'd be losing power). or a proper exhaust system made up running a high fly catalytic converter. My breeze was running standard exhaust piping with a x-force twinloop muffler attached, was very quite , but didn't sound stock. For my breeze i didn't really have any engine mods besides the mushroom pod filter. However my car had a nice set of coilovers which made the car grip really well and was just awesome for playing on mountains and stuff. I also had a c-pilar bar, blox lower control arms (polished) , function 7 lower control arm (polished) and beaks bar (polished underneath) .. kinda made a disco :D . I mainly did my car for looks seeing as i wasn't going to be racing due to no speed. Added a spoon duckbill wing (replica) on , front OEM eg6 lip, civic type r rear lip, wings west style side skirts, debadged, eg6 foglights (not wired up) , amber corners from jdm yard, 15" racinghart wheels in DIY green, headunit and 4 speakers (good sound was just missing the sub), blue led parker lights and installed remote central and alarm for easy of mind, as well as type r gear knob and type r style door trims. My car always got looks and was mistaken for a eg6 many times. Hope this helps, but those are the simple mods i had on my breeze which made it look nice and clean while a simple looking eg6 to others.
Hope this helps !
goodluck with your car :D
you know what your problem is you dont have a southern cross sticker on the back of your car, get that and your car should be good.
