since i came from the whole ae86 world, and i know that sometimes people would carburate the 4age motors and suzuki motors such as

i was curious to know if people ever use carbs on honda motors (aftermarket wise)on like b16, b18, etc...

 

There is SO MUCH info on this link about carbs.
https://honda-tech.com/zerosearch

 

i already tried the search, and i tried it again, and well, i typed in carbs and got just absolutly nothing that i was looking for..., now if someone could direct me to a thread that has it i would appriciate it, if not, can anyone tell me if people do EFI to carb conversions on hondas like they do on corollas... like aftermarket sidedraft carbs?

 

I run dual Mikuni sidedrafts on my 93 civic. it was efi, i made the switch. what are your questions?

 

I never understood why people use carbs over EFI anyway?

My thoughts exactly..

 

There are kinds of myths and misinformation that is passed around about performance carburetors, usually by people who have never worked with one in their life. A racing carburetor and the stock carburetor on your grandmas 1982 Toyota Cressida are two different things entirely.

Here's an interesting link offering a different view/side:

but why??????? where at an age in technology where we can fine tune our air fuel down the the 100rpm increment if we want, why would we go back to cave man status? My tuner w/ carb---"where do i plug my laptop in?"

 

i was just curious if people did those conversions, when i had my corolla, i always wanted to do the makuni side draft convo, but i never had the money... so, that kind of answered my question as to that...

do you perhaps have any pictures of your motor with the carbs on it?

Interesting, but what are they talking about when they say this:

So if we take a good look at the carburetor we see its not only a perfect machine for atomizing fuel, it also has another advantage.</TD></TR></TABLE>

With EFI systems the injectors spray the fuel on the back of hot valves, which vapourises the fuel instantly.
When carbs work they have (comparitevly) big droplets of fuel in the air.


Is that site comparing multipoint injection, or throttle body injection?

watch one of the bmi videos where they have the old 4 banger skyline race car in japan, that was carburated and it screamed like no other.
