b16 = cheap fun

 

So i have a bunch of random integra parts that i'm gonna sell for next to nothing or throw away if they aren't gone by the time i move, i have some body panels, interior parts and tons of dash pieces and other crap. There's also some old amps, subs and other random stereo **** to. Let me know if there are any dumb things you might need. This is for anyone that comes into the thread

 

Cool shot, looks like it came from a series of calendar shots

b16-ef-si: sorry I dont' have any devices that can record decent audio right now, it wouldn't be worth it.

Here's a vid I used in refrence for sound though before I bought the muffler,

mine sounds deeper though because I have 2.5" piping, his is a bolt on to the stock piping.

 

Cool shot

 

haha my buddy took it, i'll post another one he took
Edit: here it is

 

was it the H22 model?

Edit: Nevermind, just looked it up and bb2 is the 2.3L non-vtec

 

I thought OBD0 cars its on the firewall and OBD1 and OBD2 its on the TB. Mine is on the bottom of the TB.

 

It was in the summer and I had my windows down...but i cannot sit here and be 100% sure...it deff pulled on me good so I am thinking it was the H22...i mean i cannot sit here and say nothing was wrong with it or the driver was an idiot haha :-P

 

ahhh then would explain it :-D

 

still the h23a has 160hp and 156tq, which is alot more than a b16, but the prelude is like 150 pounds heavier give or take

 

Are we still talking about B16s??!?! LoL!
I enjoyed mine but it was my first motor, then on the jug it was a lot more fun!

 

i would be interested to race a b16, i should try to find an EM1 on the road, see how a b20 w/ a b16 lsd trans stands next to a b16

 

Close enough in weight but the B16 will pull away up top, naturally. With the GSR trans you'd have it from a dig but top end isn't even close.

 

i would think the b20 with that trans would own the whole way until the b20 hits limitter in 5th.

my old ls with a y1 used to own gsr's

 

i find this hard to believe, the amount of power between a LS and a GSR is very noticeable, if anything that set up might hold a against a GSR for a sec or two, the GSR has more horsepower, just plain and simple.

my GSR with a LS trans will rape a LS with a GSR trans, i ll put money on it.

and dont you mean YS1..?

 

Guess maybe it was in a light car?

Y1 and YS1 are pretty diff.

true story! lol

 

lmao alot of ppl bashin on the b16's...lol wow they move. as for the b20 (SERIOUS?????) pull them all day. in my obd0 whether its slapped wit a vtec head or not. nd stop actin like use aint never had 1 . Srry i didnt wanna drop 2800 and some change on a GSR lol

 

that url makes me excited to see if i have a LSD with my S80, or if i truly have a LS tranny, cause i first i thought it might have been swapped, but now i hold out for when i change my axel that it has LSD. lol

 

Uh what?

Hmm, IMO I think if you have to guess if you have an LSD, it's safe to say probably not. But like you mentioned only one way to find out!

Have you driven in a car with an LSD?

 

rear wheel drive, locked rear end(welded dif) S13 yeah, my friend that owns the S13 says it kinda pulls like it has a LSD, but like you said i dont think it does, doesnt help that my passenger side axle is **** and needs replaced. I was told if you pull the axle and look inside the tranny and there is a bar going across the whole its not LSD, if there is no bar, then it has LSD. or you do the burnout trick, and if both tires hook and burnout evenly then it does.

the likely hood of it being LSD is slim i know, but one can only hope

 

most b16s are quite boring, especially in a heavy car. i have not been impressed by very many b16s at all. very few and far between. and no, i have never owned on nor do i ever plan to. only way i'd ever own one is if i got it for stupid cheap, put it in a car, and sold the car as soon as it was running to make money.

 

mine.....b18b w/obd1 and b16 cable trans.

 

 

Well as I see it i spent 1750 for a complete b16a with labor installed with 68k...i could have spent a couple hundred less for a rebuild or a diff LS but vtec is nice to have...the only thing I miss is the torque and have mentioned that a couple times...that is why I see an advantage to the ls-vtec set up which is what I have been considering for some time...but the b16, especially after owning one, I will never sit here and say it is not worth it...and not boring at all...i cannot see how having vtec is boring unless you are such a horsepower freak that stock just does not do it anymore...but for driving around pothole-ridden city streets, it does not matter if you have 200 hp for 400 hp
