I know what you should do...sell your car or trade your car for mines. Its a '93 LS Hatchback and you wouldnt need to do anymore work to it unless you wanna upgrade to a turbo!

full out racing and honda don't belong in same paragraph.....


use it as a commuter car and get yourself a rear wheel drive domestic....cheaper parts and last longer.
try drag racing.

u could turbo ur d motor but if it was my car i would save and do a B18C5 swap and then build and turbo or if ur a baller do a k20.
It really all depends on how much u wanna spend.

In what car? At Battle of the Imports this weekend in Joliet, IL, I saw an EG with slicks run 12.3's, and 12.5's on street tires. I didn't believe the hype before I saw it with my own 2 eyes, but low 11's?

thats a waste of money! For the same amount to go k20R and do it right. I went Built LS turbo for cheaper and I'm in the mid 11's trapping mid 120's You sir need to search before you become another victim of hypeR

LSvtec is a waste of money also unless you plan on makeing above 400whp. LS turbo is the way to go 400whp and under. Like i said, I'm running strait LS w/ stock LS cams. (hehe.. 20psi)

Actually I remember reading in import tuner that they are achieving some VERY low times in comparison to what hp numbers they were running from a k20-r in a honda insight due to the aerodynamics of that shell....
If its in any other car I call bs though

push the firewall further towards the front of the car...
then move the dash forward.
and then the seats...

theeeeennnnnnnnn, put the GSR in the middle of the car behind the seats and rig up a mid-engine RWD hatch...

VROOOOOOOM!

that sounds like a "full race honda" to me...
