hey fishman since ur crazy dseries turbo wasted my sti, im thinking of selling my sti and buying a civic and turboing its d series powerplant.... i mean my wrx does an easy 11.8 but you whipped it hard... really opened my eyes... power to the d series!!!!!
Back on topic though, while in NA form there definatly nothing at all special, they respond well to boost, theres tons of aftermarket parts for em, there damn cheap to replace, there pretty light, and there definatly the underdog when it comes to honda engines. Probably the best option for boost on a budget IMO, of course a b series is a much better base for turbo....duh, but the cost to convert to a b series could be much better spent building your current d with forged internals, getting a PnP, and a nice cam IMO...
Reguarding reliability, look at the setups in the US. If there built and tuned well with good parts, they can last very very well. 400whp daily drivers ftmfw.
