Bro' you've got to read the rest of what he said, you need more than just the motor. The cost is close to $1k to drop a B-Series VTEC motor into an EF/ED chassis...the right way. Are you getting that motor and tranny from a reputable dealer such as HMotors? Have you included the almost $2k worth of other rebuild parts? Or do you plan to completely half-ass the entire project?

And 20psi on what turbo? That's an irrelevant number until you provide the turbo pushing it.

How much research have you done?

get some nos you'll run 9's on a zc motor stock!!

geminianm1 · 11-25-2005, 12:11 AM

uhhh no... a stock zc motor pushes out 137hp with 108torque that engine can only handle about a 125 shot maybe with out blowing up so what thats 262hp.. you cannot run 9s with that much horse maybe low 13's with that in a crx..

Drag racing is lame. the end. You should just take that money and buy a huge sound system and a MAACO paint job, cause all you are going to do it cruise it anyway. HAHA. j/p. Well, not about the drag racing part. It really is lame. There are 12370235824080807423408 ways to make a CRX fast, and all those engines you mentioned are good platforms. I'd go with a b16, just because they are a dime a dozen. Parts are actually cheaper than the b18 engines. Why? Because the b18s came in acuras, and the b16's came in honda, and acura will rape you a lot worse for factory parts than honda will. I know, I've been there.

It was a joke about the NOS, a 125 shot isnt going to get you 125 hp, and the zc is only going to put maybe 105 to the wheels.

if you wanted to get real sneaky, why not throw some tuner toys rods and vitara pistons in the d16a6.

throw a nice 1k hmt kit on there and rape everyones asshole for under 2k.

Now you're talkin'. Turbo D-Series ninja is the only way to go on a $3k budget. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/ph34r.gif[/img]

Though I probably wouldn't want an 8.5:1 c/r in a D16.

formby · 11-26-2005, 03:34 PM

8.5:1....but you deck the block, mill the head a little and the CR will go up.. to a decent point

Blanco · 11-26-2005, 07:54 PM

For half a point or more, I'd rather use pistons.

[img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/werd.gif[/img] to the first... but 8.5:1 is more driveable in a D16 than a B16.
