Default h22a7 accord type-r motor? or build one?

Do you think it's a good idea to send 4 grand on a euro- r motor or just build something sick for daily commute? "somebody, anybody" HELP!

Why dont you tell us more about your goals and expectations from the motor and we can go from there.

"WELL" if i get the type-R, i'll get some sweet headers, hondata and probably an exedy cerametallic clutch, maybe see what i run on the track. it will mostly be for show and later do a little more thing to the motor. The built motor, RD dyno cylinder head package built for 9k, bottom end h22 w/2.4 stroker kit and titanium connecting rods, etc.

with a stroked motor, I dont think you'll have to worry about your head being able to go to 9k rpm, heh

You know what, I'm really getting sick of these posts. I've had enough of people listing "parts" that they know nothing about.

ban!

from someone who has driven the car, no it is not worth 4 grand. the h22a7 is a better motor, the gearing is better too, but seriously not worth 4 grand for 12 horsepower difference.

spend your money on a set of crower cams, bolt ons, and tuning and you'll be a happier man
