one in the back, one in the front, the car runs FWD RWD or AWD, what ever id like. im runing d15s in there rights now, and now im going to swap them, originally i was going to go with 2 h22's that im having built up write now, but now im reconsidering it because of all the cables and computers and everything, so it boils down to this, i need the fastest honda engine without all the wires and such, or atleast less wires. what are my best options to go with?</TD></TR></TABLE>
We wanta see this

How much room do you have left, with the transfer cases and what kinda room is around in the back.

Measure stuff out and then get back to us.

If you wanna stay D-series and keep everything but the motor, get a JDM D15B. It puts out like 130 hp.

such damn clean work

Have any under chassis shots of her?

When you're off trial you'll have all the engineering geeks msging you for hours

How much room is in the back though? I'm thinking easiest would be simple b16s. They work not too much bigger and lots of upgrades out there. Hs are a bit larger I don't know how you got every thing setup and the rear it might not fit.

Thats so cool still

Well, i wanna move away from d, either to an fseries or h, i just need to find the best way to do this with little wires to the computers and such, Both the engines run, you can run the front one, the rear one, or both at the same time, making it RWD FWD and AWD, i will be posting more pics in a minute as soon as they are done uploading, and is there any mod that can take me off trial mode so i can do more posts?

THIS IS THE FIRST TIME IM SHOWING PICS OFF ALL THE WORK UNDER THE CAR ENJOY IT!!

With all the work you did it'd be a shame to undo any of it. Stay D and get the D15B.

The wiring won't be too much different really. Stuffing motors of that size is the tricky part of those swaps.

As for trial mode, it stinks we all had to live with it. No way around it but it's needed to help proctect site from spam and trolls.

Don't let anyone hate on the car, that is a awesome setup

Tippy man does bring up a good point some of the Ds have more pep then what you have in now. It'll mostly be little wiring changes as far as fitmint you'll already be set.

If you really do want F/H motors good luck

that cant happen, how can one go faster? if the back is going faster the front one has no choice but to go the same speed. vice versa. When my trial mode is over i will show you pictures of the true secret in this car, the shifter/transmission linking, they are manual 4 gear boxes but the engines all run perfectly in sync.

Twin k20a type-r's would be cool. I'm sure ryan could make you a simple harness for it.

Interesting.

I read in your first post you want to go with less wires and stuff. Ever thought about doing so side draft Webers or somthing like that. There was a CRX in Honda Tunning a while back that had a nice set of Webers and the bay was so clean. Just something to think about.

I would also advise you to lean towards the H over the F. I'm not sure how much money you want to throw around but have you thought about a K-series?

What are you tipping the scales at with this car?

Ditto, I'm so jealous. I've wanted to do this for years and you have done it. Now I have to find something else.

Thank you for sharing, It is amazing!!! and my hat's off to you.
