JSRC or NA Build

[dsp26]

hey guys just got a quote from jackson's racing in the US $2400 including shipping, they only have 2 in stock.
still looking for a desent 3 core radiator (can anyone help)
and i gotta start looking for an oil cooler


then i need the dosh!

fark thats cheap... is that direct from jackson racing?

does it include that ecu that usually comes with the kit as well as the rc engineering 310cc injectors?

Can ya supercharge a D16Y1

wait, why not turbo? cause he wants to use it for a track car on the weekends, and a turbo kis is best suited for straight line which dosnt really suite a fwd car around corners, plus the overall power with the civic will be the same it will just be a broarder torque curb,

NIghtkids, yes im preety sure jrsc has a kit got the sohc 1.6 civic supposed to eat up alot of the vtec cars as well

my old manchanic was running a JC setup on a b20/b18c didnt require a 3 core radiator. But the price is cheap what you have been quoted.

depends.. if he wanted best of both worlds i'd go the vortech kit... turbo would be good for a longer track like eastern creek (but that also depends on turbo setup) but the jsrc would probably be ideal for something like wakefield where you can power out of the many corners.. at the end of the day.. jsrc is bolt-on and can be removed easily, he can retain most of his NA mods instead of paying extra to get things done for a turbo

Hey mateI was talking to some of my workmates (at PWR) and he reckons we could make a twin cores that woulld more that satisfy your needs

I can get you contact details if you need

Pretty cheap for a JRSC.
Nice and different.

Questionable if it's the better setup for track though. Even more so if a LSD is absent.

I had troubles with powering out of corners with a stockish 1.8L, NO LSD.

Obviously a SC setup will add plenty of power down low but how much do you gain @ peak rpm?
Isn't that the goal when building a track setup?

If you're only going to get a 10% increase (random percentage I'm using as example) @ 6,000rpm+. Then is it really worth it. Since you'll be at those rpms most of the time on track...? No?

I'd imagine it would be one fun street car though

[dsp26]

^^^depends on the track.. heres a good example (although handling has a lot to do with it):

a top end extensive car can't power out of corners if its got no low end grunt.. but yes a good compromise can be achieved with a smaller/miler turbo setup

[nigs]

ugh...if you're comparing the NSX vs the Lambos...

The Murc has AWD and a V10, accelerating out of corners isn't really a issue for that car....just a guess.

Yep will definately have to get a lsd to get full potential of the sc and the peak power will be minimal/ if any, but we have to remember that the EM1 is a biggish car almost the same size as a teg but has the smaller b16 which is still great but that extra torque that the sc gives will give it the edge that it needs, bigger supercharger or small turbo setup would be good as well but its not going to be a full on track car so everyday driving is another "obstacle" that has to be looked at when building it, plus turbo you would possibly have to do an engine rebuild do you can get some decent boost and its an added cost for whats basically a great streeter thats going to be going to track days.
Also theres good bolt on's and plus a good tune that will help with peak HP but another thing that has to be considered is the handling setup for road/race car thats going to be emptying the pockets as well, so for the power it gives and what its worth its good to do

hey guys sorry ive been abit of a dog, been in melbourne the last week (some nice looking honda's down there)

reading all the post's has got me G'ed for this build.

gotta jet

[eg5civic]

Mate prices vary really

We ship by air freight so no problems about shipping

If you'd like me to ask i'm guessing the cars an Ek, So you want a twin core... there are different tube sizes and what not all depending on how much you want to spend but i can find out a rough from-too price if you like

Or i can put you on to one of our sales people

And i'm talking about buying direct from PWR which is located at Ormeau in QLD
