theres this kid at my school that talks like that.. he told me he was buying a j-spec honda motor that has 410 hp n/a and stock, he didn't know the engine code. i told him to bring in a sheet of paper telling about this motor well, about 3 mos ago, and he still hasn't brought it.
now he's claiming he's getting a factory turbo motor from japan *honda of course* . so i asked him if it was a motor from the mid 80's? or a honda jetski.. he said this about a month ago, and hasn;t talked to me since

OK just to through my two cents in... The odds of this guy driving a car that is apparently one of a kind, considering the laws of physics/mechanics/common sense fail to exist in this guys car, are slim to none. I vote slap him for being a total ass hat, laugh at him and walk it away. It isn't that deep.

jesus dude thats absolutely retarded, you really needed to ask us???? that is one of the most rediculous things ive ever heard... right up there with this guy who has a "honda civic that does wheelies" and the 10 year old that got a dl from the president of the united states.......... jeebus man i think you need to punch the guy in the face and when your fist is on its way back from bullshit land guide it to your own.....

the ctr cams and valvetrain help that out too
Oh yea, I knew I was missing something obvious.

and to the guy who started this thread, ask him how he knows wtf 10,000 rpms sounds like? that is bull crap... ask to go for a ride in it
Unless he found some way to steal an F1 or cart motor, this guy is a lying sack of shit. If he said 11k, it would be skecty but semi belivable. 10k, yes, 9k, no problem. You mentioned a b16, stock they can rev to 8200, and when built heads are on them, they can normally withstand revs up to 10k but a little after 9k, the powerband plunges down to nothing.
F1 engines (yes honda has f1 and cart engines but good luck getting one into a civic) will rev to 15k with no problem, some redline as high as 18k. The major problem with reving higher (just like past 10k) is that the valve springs can not close the valves fast enough and both intake and exhaust will be open for a little bit (called valve overlap) To resove this, stiffer springs are used but the valves take more of a beating. To rev to 15k+ the springs are extremly stiff and cause major wear on the valve heads and eventually snap. The designers of these engines try to make the springs as stiff as possible without having the valves snap within that 500 miles. Normally when indy cars finish, they have little time left on that engine before shit breaks. Before the next race, the entire engine must be rebuilt. If this kid is using this engine as a daily driver, he must have extremly deap pockets to be able to afford a rebuild once a month. Also 150 hp?
fully built race engines produce a tad more than 150 hp. This kid is a fag that is just lying to your face and does not know what the hell he is talking about.Domeskilla

OKay. To the kid who started this, :ufucktard: for even believing him. Anyone with half a brain can realize he is lieing at his ass and it makes you look beyond stupid for believing his shit. I am sure when he told you, you believed him. If you didnt, you wouldn't be asking us.
Come on, fully built motor with 150hp? Better yet, a honda that is street driven and handles 15k revs without a sure way of knowing. Oh come on!! From about 13500 to 15000 it all sounds the same to me (i dont have great hearing due to IASCA and USAC comps).
We need a bullshit emoticon.. ::B U L L S H I T::

well in his defense I'm sure it his engine did reach 15k RPM it would be "in" the redline

Heh, on a stock tach, at 15 000 the needle would have to go all the way around and almost point back to 0
15k in a daily driven car? I need to throw my bullshit tokens in on this one too.
On the other hand- if 10k is where my power curve starts to fall off when I'm wrapping up my engine build, then 10k is where I'll be revving to on the track.
