my oil pump and water pump are already good to go. I might put in some arp rod bolts. Other than that from my personal experience, we've had bone stock b20vtec and lsvtec motors last for 4+ years that were abused and raced (at the track, maybe occasionally a few freeway runs). Im not the type of person who smashes around though, not worth the tickets

 

Might as well stay low and tru if you not smashin!

 

what..?

 

Why go B20VTEC if you're not trying to bash on it on a regular basis? Are you just doing it to say you have vtec?

 

You sound like an unsafe driver to think its ok to "bash on it" when driving on the streets

because we go to track, going to track is alot different than smashing on your car everywhere you drive. I dont street race. Eventually i will semi-build the motor internally but not at the current moment, daily driving a stock b20vtec around the streets without smashing on it and only getting on it once in a blue moon isnt a big deal.


And btw KNOwLedGe, 96+ GSR and LS oil pumps are the same

 

I never street race(d) either and don't drive crazy. I'm one the safest drivers you'll know, but I smash on my car on the REGULAR. Better believe with vtec I'm smashin at 8000rpm's at least a few times a day. I build cars to drive, not to look good parked.

 

cant have vtec and not crack into it good at least once every time you drive it

 

Somewhat sounds like a contradiction saying that you're "one of the safest drivers you'll know" but smash to 8k on public streets every day. Then again, smashing to 8k with a b16 you're probably not really speeding anyways hahaha, just kidding. Either way, i usually only drive my car 2 times per day, at 8 a.m. and 6 p.m. Before and after work, which is traffic times, so theres not much room to be smashing. I save it for the track and occasionally on really dead roads

 

****. Between 2000 and 2001 I was STEADY street racing.

Empty, non-residential 3 lane suburban roads with fresh pavement FOR THE WINNNNNNNN!

 

That does sound nice hahaha

 

Naa that's all I see over here is ppl with rusted hoods, my buddy has a RHD ek with a rusted hood... and my hood has a couple dents in it from the previous owner, soo got to have the body work and suspenstion nice and sexy then ready for boost and deep dished rims :]

 

 

can't imagine its very safe to smash on your car in the canyons... it might be more unsafe then driving in a straight line.

But doing that is so much fun. kinda sucks in my car though.

 

ha interesting more like a pain in the *** take it from me im still trying to get mine done and everytime i think im close i find more crap i need to spend money on

 

yeah last motor i built was just vtec conversion kit and head studs, and that was it, using a obd0 ecu. Motor ran perfectly fine until the car was sold and probably still runs fine

 

by the way how long is too long to let injectors sit and re use them i have dsm 450 injectors that i have had for about 6 months and im wondering if i have to get them cleaned and serviced or if i can just put them in the motor

 

Not really a question you want answered in the Appearance forum...

 

i juss found out that my DB1 has a b16 tranny, thats badass and i plan on getting
my one peice redone soon too.

 

which trans code is it? rpm at 80 mph?

 

i can care less where its answered lol i just wanna know

 

S1

 

did you figure it out by the rpms you were at while driving or by the code?

 

oopss.. sorry my bad...

btw, if i do that muffler relocation can i use the DC and EK mufflers? i mean i want it to be bolt-in at the flange by the control arm...

 

i would like to ask how you found out what trans you had? by driving it and gauging the rpms? or taking it apart and counting the teeth?

because the s1 is a us and jdm case.

as for the injectors i would say you can run them just fine in you engine. no need to clean them, just make sure the filters on top are clean.

 

YESSIR! i was at work all day and didnt get a chance to take any pics cuz i gots the motor over at my grandmothers at the moment.. but last night i went on a lil road trip and picked up a full b17a1 complete with orig ys1 trans, p61 ecu, axles,shift linkage,uncut wire harness,mounts, radiator, side markers, carbon fiber c-pillar bar,gauge cluster, intake,header, charcoal canister, mugen shift ****... all freshly plucked in fornt of me out of a 92 db2 gsr!!! im waiting to hear back form the dude.. but tryin to get the hub assembly with drilled/slotted rotors, skunk2 coilovers, and skunk2 camber kits!! and all for a veerrrryy nice price!! i practically robbed the guy!
