My rod came out to say hello

So it happened

Time to spend a fortune doing a B16 swap
or find someone with a d16 so I can get the ball rolling

>Time to spend a fortune doing a B16 swap
what did it have before it broke ?

D16a6

I was on borrowed time with the D16
I had over revved
skipped timing
cracked the water jacket
had an engine fire
this engine had been through hell and back

Would a b16 really cost that much to get? Might as well go that route I'd say

After everything it's looking like AT LEAST $8k for the build the way I want to do it
One problem is time, I might be throwing a junker d16 in the car just to participate in a couple races

I already have the b16a2 engine btw

Seem like it's gonna be a fun build.
Maybe you'll learn something in the process and upgrade to a rwd car.

>upgrade to RWD
>watch the RWD guys loose their rear end every corner by the end of a 12 lap race
Yeah, I'm alright

I'm sure you have a good view from behind.

This, RWD sucks for actually racing, you rarely see RWD cars at competitive track events or any racing leagues structured around them.

Why do you bench racers have to ruin WAT threads

His thread was on dead until I bumped it because it actually has potential to be a good thread. that is until you showed up...

>I will never be you

for the type of racing I am doing a light FWD car with a loose rear end seems to work just fine
Some of my wins are because I conserve my tires until the last couple laps when their tires are roasted and too loose on the rear, if my rear gets loose I can throttle through it most of the time.
That's good, no one likes blown motors lol

>conserve tires
How?!? !?!

I wish I was you, you're living the fucking dream. I'll never do this

keep the car balanced, reduce sliding, don't trash tires through heavy braking or acceleration under slip

can I join your biker gang? you can teach me a few tricks on how to drive? maybe I can be your second?
>you will never be a driver on a team

Wat

Yeah, I wanna join! Being tutored by someone like you would be an honor! I buy all your stickers, I don't have a car but I put them all over my room and computer

Do you realize normal people can race cars? Unless you are a quadruple amputee or live in Somalia you can enter an amateur racing series.

I feel like this is a troll lol

I'm not, I'm just sad and feeling like I'll never do any of the stuff you talk about.
No money, no tools, no knowledge, no car. Fuck man.

Well, a good first step is to get a job that can support racing
I worked my ass off to get a better job so i could do more than autocross a Fiero

You're right, deleted cuz I'm a fuckwit.

Continue on

I can't get a job man, I'm so screwed. I wish I was your friend

You aren't in arizona are you?
I'd be down to lend a hand/wrench/cherrypicker/honda assistance.

>8k for swap
>B SERIES
>already has the engine

are you fucking insane?

it could be in the car running for literally nothing

He probably wants to rebuild the motor/slight overbore or some shit.
Maybe updgrade fuel system/chassis bracing while the d series is out.
All kinds of shit can go on during the build, the build that ends with a b16 in the car.

Lol why can't you get a job

>Ditching the D-series master race for some pleb tier B-series

youtube.com/watch?v=ZmcCoDmwhXc

this man is drifting with no legs, and you cant buy a civic and go around a track in circles?

D series STRONK

I wanna take my car to the track one day. Maybe next year.

>blew my race motor
>108HP single cam.
Huh.
>8k for a b16 build
What the fuck are you putting in it? Solid gold cam shafts rods and pistons? Diamond valves? Why so much?

Again? This seems to happen a lot.

>keep the car balanced
but its got dat mass up front

Personally, I dont drive rwd cars because of tensions in the driveline make the transmissions double clutch hot. Fwd is where its at as the car has the engine spinning over the tires making more downforce.

is traverse mid rear truly what you want ?

Personally, I just want someone to rear end me over the hood of my jap faggot box.

shingo best boy tbqh

yeah i guess you would like to be read ended

You could build a high compression d16 to 150-160 horse power for under a grand assuming you're doing the work.

Didn't Shingo have a B16 though?

Yeah a B16A. I have a D16A. Close enough lel

why don't you race fieros? MR is better by far than FF

I don't think fieros have the aftermarket that honda has or the reliability

I have a y7 in my car too! Just put a fart can on it today. I also have a second y7 awaiting rebuild sitting on the garage floor.

then MR2

but fieros have documented V8 swaps and shit right?

chill out bro, it's just a fact

(You)

I mean I guess. A V8 wouldn't make a fiero a good race car though

MR2 on the other hand would be an awesome track car. 4AGE can be built to make a fair amount of power, probably more than a D16 but I don't really know

That said, FF isn't even bad if the car is well set up. I'd take a well set up B18 Integra over a lot of FR and MR cars

Idk why I'm an asshole. I just posted a couple times and I didn't say anything mean

(You)

get a b18b; they're everywhere. It'll do.

There is no 'H' in VTEC brah

>Vtech
>Drawing of a phone

Bruv.

I think there are class limitations that don't allow him to use certain engines or something

So the "honda engines are cheap for the power they make" thing is a meme?

>I'd be down to steal your tools/equipment/parts/hands

Why do you waste time with this shit? You're an absolute manbabby faggot
Could have bought an actual fast car to race other fast cars
The best part is you're delusional about it all
Just get a go kart

And now you race a 102hp Honda against shitty cars
Inb4 bbbut I passed an amateur in a FR Porsche

get better doggo

Hello americuck busrider.

> Pulling a Honda engine is a big deal
> Thinks it's even thread worthy
Lmao I was like lmao

>his $8000 ~130hp built D series blew

>blew my race motor
why no pics of damage?

>8k
why not just buy a type r?

$2.4k for the transmission I am having built
$1k for machine work or there about
$1500 for a hand built exhaust header back
and then parts, every fucking part needs to be replaced.
and $800 for a complete wiring harness to be made for the car (which is horrid so I might be trying to hack something together)

Because buying the car is not the end of the cost
I think when all was said and done it was around $6k
Considering all of the abuse I was surprised it lasted this long
Blog and video will be up soon
Its hard to get a good pic with the exhaust in the way

>driving down a straight road
>hit a tree

Lmao i was like lmao

ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

equinox?

...

>that panda finish
>engine blew up
Hi Takumi all good?

did you blow the welds on you intake

>8k
>honda motor
You have to be literally retarded OP. Buy a real car you faggot.
>stop liking what I don't like
Spend your money however you please, but you are literally throwing it away if you plan to spend 8 grand on a fucking B series build
>honda fags are seriously this delusional
No wonder everyone thinks you are pathetic

Not even close brother

Ef fag here again

Who are you again

You drive a Toyota, that you crashed into a tree because of a little rain.

People like you shouldn't get into competitive racing

Is a 1994Prelude a bad car?
