    99 DX Hatch Drifting

    if you haven't gutted your interior, you should be in SM: which allows removing the back seat & a swap. DM is a practically impossible class to win in a civic, but anything goes. if you insist on slicks, get 13x8 ones and nothing else. if you don't have that wheel size get them.

    99 DX Hatch Drifting

    sorry if i did. i'm not questioning your intelligence, but rather your judgement - and that's fair game. it's hard to teach someone who doesn't want to learn in the first place. you don't really have a question, but just a big mess you want us to figure out for you. just get out there, race...

    99 DX Hatch Drifting

    yeah it's different from driver to driver. i myself love the oversteer, but a lot of good drivers perfer a more neutral car. i've seen fast drivers use both setups - of course nobody i consider 'fast' is fighting the push. and $3800 for coilovers holy crap you lack judgement. suspension is...

    99 DX Hatch Drifting

    because he has no idea at all what he's doing. oversteer is highly preferred in autox & road racing (to a point). if you can't get around without drifting every corner then either a) stiffen the front b ) unstiffen the rear or c) both. otherwise, your suspension might actually be decently...

    :no: go ask a driving instructor how to stop a spin. ever hear the saying "in a spin, push both in". mash the gas :lol: it's a FF car genius

    99 DX Hatch Drifting

    hmm weren't you the guy who bought 20 suspension pieces at once? and didn't i say that's retarded & you're gonna come on here whining? :slap: first off, it's called oversteer. second, an oversteering car in an inexperienced driver's hands is dangerous. if you get spinning, push the brake &...

    Suspension?

    do things one at a time. put those on, drive the car for a while and learn all you can about chassis prep. then you will know what the car is doing, and then be able to determine first hand what's going to work well and what's not. for us to sit here and spoon fed you the way to tweak your...

    Swaping B18B to either B18C1 or C5. Which one?

    oh yeah ... if you have the motor out now, why didn't you just get a b16 tranny and head and build a nice ls/vtec ??? or just rebuild it & boost the ls hard. you spend all that on a swap, and you could have built a faster turbo motor for much less $. see what i mean?

    Swaping B18B to either B18C1 or C5. Which one?

    first off, he got the mani for 50 bucks ... it was hand-me-down from his brother. second, 8whp and some all the way up is a HUGE gain for $50 :P. third, that amount of power for $349 is still HUGE for the money. however, if you're dead set on the turbo kit, maybe consider a different mani...

    Swaping B18B to either B18C1 or C5. Which one?

    yup. my friends gsr with just i/h/e picked up 8 @ the wheels with the skunk mani. he lost some before 3k, gained about 5-7 through the midrange, & 8 more at 7300. the torque curve picked up nicely too. this was on a dynojet. get that sucker ported along with your head and it'll be even...

    Swaping B18B to either B18C1 or C5. Which one?

    i'd take top end over low any day. but i race my car :driver: aside from the power band, the gsr manifold sucks because: it's a bitch to get on and off - especially in the car. there's a stud in the middle that shouldn't be there ... poor design. also it doesn't fit in a civic engine bay...

    Swaping B18B to either B18C1 or C5. Which one?

    ^ finally someone who knows anything. too late i guess. but the c1 honestly is a better choice for boost. i wouldn't worry too much about getting the wiring sorted out. just do your homework, it's really not that difficult. once you get it running you'll be very pleased. one thing you...
