yah.. i guess the lesson here for the OP is that if you can't afford to go the lengths all the way then you will be spending money and still won't be happy.. the only logical choice is to be like everyone else who just do I/H/E and be done with it or actually 'finish' something....
these are the options for complete:
- B16 = Built Head with all the correct components working together and
at least the FD
- B18c7 + lsd 4.7fd gearbox and be done with it
- CRVTEC(b20vtec) or LSVTEC(b18b2vtec) with mild head work
If you can't afford any of them then stay with what you already have and be happy with it and save for your next great buy of a car.... if you want, PM me and you can drive my car... should be out of the workshop next week.
This is the curse of a HoonDuh... "Horsepower sells cars, Torque wins races"... HoonDuhs were never designed to be amazingly fast on the straight, but rather, more than adequate HP for trackwork in combination with sussy/chassis/brake setup. The first step in truly appreciating the ownership of a Honda is to understand the manufacturers purpose.... i understand it now after coming from faster cars and being.. in a sense, 'disappointed' with a worked B16a....
this is why i feel sorry for all the hoon civic drivers that always "vtec yo" and 'think' they have a fast car... they don't understand what fast is and what it takes to win a race in its many forms... you have to have a purpose for your build and set your goals and budget accordingly...
it's called project management, i hope it's something thats taught at school these days, it sure as hell hard to learn through consequences in a corporate environment
***EDIT***
But we know your not going to listen anyway lol... I had the same mentality and did it all anyway... some people only accept the answers the hard way
