I have a question to ask for all the people who have an ITR motor in their civic hatch. Here is a little backround of my previous car experience. I started on a 92 Civic Si hatch with the SOHC Vtec. I then moved up to a 98 SSBP GSR. I love the B18's and from there my car craze really began. Since then I have had an RSX two ITR's and two S2000's. I currently have an 03 S2000 but I am tired of the payment. I want an EK that I can slowly build up as a toy and I am just wondering if anyone on here has went from lets say an itr to an itr powered EK what are your thoughts on the switch? I have never driven an ITR powered EK but my friend has an LS EK and that is pretty damn quick itself. Any insight would be greatly appreciated because I think it will either be the EK or a third R as I LOVED both my last R's. Thanks for listening to me ramble.

 

Perhaps the Civic or hybrid forum?

 

my buddy in a s2k and myself got "it on" on a freeway the other night, the time he got me the most was when we took off from 70 s2ks are fast at that speed

he said i took him off the line becaus 2nd gear was grinding.... but i had him way before he shifted into second

What will you be using the car for? DD? Track?

One thing to keep in mind is, thefts on EK's, ITR's are sickening. S2k's aren't too bad, as far as that goes. Plus, if you calculate the $$ you're going to put into the EK, time spent on it, headaches, etc, you'll probably be better off with your s2k. If I were you, I'd just keep the S2k.

Also, you'll have better luck in the Hybrid forums.

 

I have a garage and I will be only driving the car roughly 5,000 miles a year. I love to do the work that it takes so that is another positive. I will try the hybrid forum.

 

eh..both are expensive..b18c5's are expensive..if ur planning to go FI..that is also going to cost a lot..it's really up to u...

 

it'll really cost a lot if it gets stolen like jonas' ek did. luckily, the thieves did a half *** job at strippin' sunshine.
