what kind of bike gets beaten by a 200 cHP 1700lb car? Most bikes have less than 1/2 the hp and 1/3 the weight.... I dunno, its tough to say.

If you have the money and the time to install a V6 into a Civic, do it, and send pics. Other than that you need to remember: 1. The Performance Aftermarket for B and H series motors has more options than the V6. 2. The Civic was engineered for the I4 setup, a V6 is much heavier and now you're...

THC is a chemical compound that is fat soluble. To completely detoxify your system, the best way is time.. sadly. What makes that time decrease is how you burn the fat. Remember, drink plenty of water. Jogging, fat burning diet, plenty of B vitamins to help you metabolize energy, and lots of...

If you already have a Si or GSR transmission, what's the point of switching to an LS tranny? Also, if you think a longer geared tranny works better for your turbo set-up, use it, because you must've done all the testing and calculations that show that you can have faster times than your current...

I'll be in the market for another one soon, 3rd grinds pretty bad now.. I wouldn't take anything with more than 70k for more than $200+ship. Also, if you're thinking about selling the tranny, put what you think it's worth, and give the prospects a chance at a 'Best-Offer'.

:werd:

3rd gear is a little rough for me right now, it grinds going in if I'm over 2500, and once a week or so it'll kick it out if I'm running under 2000.

if you're any good with running fuel lines, I'd do that next, if it's rough idle you might want to check vacuum. Check your plugs too, if they appear gummy/gunky that would indicate a rich condition, if they are charred and your gap has decreased/increased, or even the tip is starting to...

I'm running Nology Hot-Wires (with the 4 grounding straps) with Denso Ir IX plugs and Bosch Cap & Rotor... Only a dyno could tell the difference on a well-kept car, if you notice a drastic increase in performance from plugs/wires/cap/rotor, it's time to inspect tranny fluid, timing belt, brake...

A friend of mine tested it out on his EK to save a few bucks. He regrets paying the extra money just to learn he'd eventually save more with a Quaiffe.

Y ou can lose low-end torque by switching to a CAI, but if I recommend anything it'd have to be an AEM Cold air system, best for the money, includes powdercoating in most cases.

I can't think of the hose at this late in the night, but if it's old and rubber, it can be squishy and useless if it pinches itself.

Haven't heard anything bad about Quaiffe.

Not always. Longer gears will be better if you have a 600hp Skyline :)

All parts eventually wear, being mean on the pedal with an automatic will make it wear faster. Rules to Performance driving in Automatics: -Fresh Tranny fluid every 4000 miles. -Magnetic drain plug for Tranny Fluid. -Tranny Cooler. -Oil Cooler if you live in warm climates or if you're making...
