No offense Spike, just tryin' to make a point here...
if you want 160 to the wheels n/a, go with the B,
If you want 200 to the wheels turbo, go with a D,
if you want 300+ to the wheels with turbo, go with B


a sohc has its limits...

Thanks for sticking up for me. If I wanted 12-13 sec time slips, I'd stick with a D, but since I'm hoping for low 11's/high 10's, B series only makes since.


BTW, don't quote me on those times...thats just hopes...

I hope you're ready to really pour some cash in there man. You know how long I've been doing mine and I'm at 12s... you planning on running slicks I hope?

the five lug swap is really expensive, man. If youre doing just as a brake upgrade, youre wasting your money. If youre doing it to get chicks, then its all good

why convert to a manual rack? isnt a looped power rack just as good, but with a faster ratio?
do they have any more b18c5's at that price?? i dont even need a whole swap... just long block and tranny.....
anyways congrats on the new shiz!

White-n-slow: Is $750 to $$$ for a complete 5 lug setup, ITR shocks/springs, and gunmetal ITR wheels? I didn't think so either.

Kai: Yea, I'm staying with Honda...knew as soon as I sold my coupe, I'd hate myself. Who knows, low 12's/high 11's might scare me enough to stop

Dantastic: I'm converting to manual steering rack cause I don't want PS. My dad's 4 dr doesn't have it, and I'd prefer to have it that way.
About the b18c5 price...special deal from a friend...I can ask him if he has another if your serious!
