I don't think this is sound advice.

The block could be 100% BRAND NEW and it's still not a good idea to use a stock non-VTEC block and slap on a VTEC head. The weak point of the B18A/B18B block is its connecting rod bolts. The 89mm stroke combined with weak connecting rod bolts leads to failure over 7,500 RPM.

Who the hell wants to build VTEC engine that can't even safely rev to where the meat of its powerband lies?

need some opinions.... </TD></TR></TABLE>

My opinion is that you shouldn't be asking randoms on the internet where you should put stupid stickers on YOUR car.

 

Question...i just bought this Energizer battery for a replacement like a month and a half or so ago and it appears that it MAY be leaking out of the positive terminal...it is a light brown viscous fluid, and no i did not touch or lick it...like Andy would ;-)

I am not a professional on batteries so someone that knows a little more than i do, please let me know what you think and if i should return the battery...its freaking new and i think its leaking...its only around the positive terminal

 

dude this knowledge guy is a DICK, for real wow.

Anyways, I just got my HKS Hi-Power Muffler from weksos.
This next weekend it will be on and I'll get ya guys a sound clip!

I'm really not.

I just think it's the LAMEST thing EVER to ask others' opinions about something as trivial as where to put stickers on your own car. It's one thing that you're putting on the same stickers as countless people with DAs, but it's another to ask them where you should put yours. You asked for an opinion and you got it...

You can call me a dick all you want, but good luck when you have a REAL question about your DA and you have people who have no clue what they're talking about trying to answer it.


EDIT: Just to show you that I'm NOT a dick, here is a pic of what the HKS Hiper catback looks like so you can try to bend the piping for your muffler accordingly:

 

^He's right. Stickers don't matter whatsoever. People typically try to use stickers as a replacement for performance and they fail. Don't be one of them.

 

whoever was talkin about the da squad stickers heres the one they made a few years ago i had saved on my comp

Okay? Haha. Dude just chill out with the damn negative comments, just wanted some opinions if u were gonna say that just keep that shyt to urself. And I'm not doing my piping, a muffler shop is, thanks tho.

 

Herb, whats up buddy?

 

Not much. Trying to figure out what i'm gonna do about the teg. How are you doing?

 

whats wrong with it now herb?? you've got like the worst luck with your car

 

pulled my friends EJ1 out of the ditch last night lol, i would have rather hit the Deer than loose control and go into the ditch lol.......

heres some killer pics of the after math, wish i would have video tapped me pulling him out with my jeep lol

 

I'm pretty good man, just been working a lot, trying to save up for the DA. Just got my HKS Hi-Power Muffler today, will be on next Friday I'll put sound clips up, and the next mod is Tein S-Tech Springs and BLOX lower control arms.

#285 with an update. Really need to find a place besides my lumpy driveway to take pics. The car always looks higher in the pics.



Heres The newest addition. Nardi Classic Steering wheel with nrg quick release. Love the classic look.







And skunk2 Adjustable camber kit. Well made, don't have any installed pics yet.

 

Yeah, it shouldnt be too bad, its 25" long end of inlet to end of tip.





should look like that at the worst.

 

ugh, i hope it doesnt look like that. i hate nasty angles like that

 

well if you were to buy the whole cat back it'll come with a tilt. just like knowledge's, that's how mine looked like too. if you don't it'll have ugly 90 degree bends unless you have it come out the passenger side.

 

you can cut the Inlet shorter to help make the bend go better, should turn out perty good still gotta hope for the best bud ?

should have my tranny tommorow woot woot

 

Yeah, Im having a muffler shop do it, but I'll have to tell them that Stevo, thanks bud! and I hope it turns out good for me too
