I'm sure that there is somebody in dire need of a 1.5 liter motor somewhere. What's the point of destroying it? Hell, if you don't want it it'd make a nice turbo or n2o project for somebody.

yea dude, a motor is still a motor. I still have a 1.5 lying around someplace. Someone might need it. Good for parts too.

My 1.5 broke down a half mile away from my house the SAME DAY I was going to pull it for a B-Series. I could not figure out why it wouldnt start. No joke!

We beat the living crap out of the 1.5 in my buddie's CX the day we were going to do the B series swap. My buddy somehow managed to blow some oil rings or the head gasket or something because it started smoking a thick blueish white smoke whenever the throttle was touched. We never took it apart to figure out why...

I have pics and a vid somewhere of the insane amount of smoke. They're at home and I can post them in the morning if anyone's really interested...

My friend and I were thinking of some death and destruction for my D15B8 for the day before we put the b16 in.

His idea was we take a canister of compressed air and put it in the back of my car. We then pipe the intake out the hood and in through the passenger window with PVC or something. Next we spray the tube with the air turned up really high and cover it so it compresses. Next, race and see what the hell happens.

We're slowly working details out and even more slowly thinking that it isnt going to work.

I'm prolly just gona keep the motor because my friends seriously blow like a motor every 2 weeks, so someone would prolly need to do a 5 hr swap job to have a DD for work or something. Always good to have a spare.
