WOAH, nice car!!! I really like those wheels. Kinda reminds me of the TL/CL Type-S wheels.

How come your D15 makes 130hp and our D16 makes 125?

Also wondering why the JDM D16's have a 7500 RPM redline. Do they have a diff computer? Diff cams? What's the deal?

yeah the stock 14s are a bit smelly. im not sure why it runs 130hp, but i beat my friends UKDM 94 civic ESi (3dr hatch, d16z6). it has the details of the engine on hondaswap reference page too, and this site here: http://www.leecao.com/honda/vtec/3stagevtec.html

I'm not sure what you mean by "smelly," but skratch was saying they're "sick" which is slang for "really nice." I was playing off of that to make a joke. You're a good sport. :thumbup:
