go ahead and do it, Honda challenge is a very very cheap way of getting into racing, some people run stock daily drivers in h4


i JUST started the project, the rest of the car currentley has an optima battery in the trunk, it is getting a roll cage, the sound deadning **** needs to come out

suspension kyb's and tein springs which are illegal

fluidyne radiator (still need to drain the coolant, replace with water wetter and water cant run coolant)

cant run nitrous, superchargers or turbo, internals must remain stock, and the crank cant exceed 1600 cc so you can see how budgeted everyone is

What pistons are you going to use? Are you going to take full advantage of the .040 allowance?

That piston rule really limits what you can use ... what's your game plan?

if you can get a hold of a GSR head, get it.. it gives slightly higher compression.

not if you use race gas with good tuning and obviously milling is limited

i never suggested milling, someone suggested a head swap to drop comression i simply said that instead of buying a new head you could just mill the existing head if that was the goal... i do see your point though, i have no idea what the rules are. link?
