Just get some DC integra mounts from the GSi, VTiR or Type R
They'll work too.
Im using integra type R ones...dunno if they make a difference, but it gives me a bigger head :wink:

What sort of price are the JDM EG6 SiR engines???? I'm assuming that they would be pretty high?Quote:

Just a quick question. Noone has mentioned the EK4, don't these have the B16A engine as well?
Yup they do...b16a2...OBD2 enginesQuote:

So does anyone know the price of one of those JDM EG6 SiR engines???
www.yellowpages.com.au ;)
I've seen them for under three grand in a complete front cut a while back, dunno about now. I'm pretty sure SSS Automotive advertised them - dunno on price.
In your opinion would it be worth paying the extra $1000 or so for the extra bit of horsepower?
Or just go the regular B16A?
hmm...personally i think it depends what u r getting in the first place...mind you, the older the series of engine the more likely something isnt as strong internally...minimum u should be going for an ozzy spec b16a2 , out of the vtirs - but for that extra grand IF u can get sumthin like a SiR engine or even a CTR ( B16b) then by all means ! Otherwise, its better putting that $1000 towards a full blueprint or or new pistons or etc etc...to guarentee the longevity of these hard reving lil monsters 8)
But yeah...look at me ! Im sticking to a d16a8 - its no bad thing...limited in the modification stakes but i good lil revver ! ( until , i blow it up lol...then a b18c is in mind :P )
Just a thought.
The JDM B16A has 170hp. But thats on Japans higher grade fuel.
So does that theoretically mean that the hp will be less if you use australian fuel?
If so, is it worth the extra $$$??
I don't know aboutt he fuel thing, but sounsd about right.
Thnx benjamin. I suppose the B16A2 will be the most common here in Aus, and easiest to source parts for, and probably cheaper.
Which for me is the most bang for my buck :)
It's an interesting idea - but we are talking '92 Japanese fuel that the EG6 was designed for. I run my JDM B16A on 98 octane and get the smae power output it did in Japan 160ps. Aussie fuel has caught up to early 90s Japanese fuel.Quote:
