Default Just picked up a EF sedan

So i got a ef sedan with b20z and ls tranny from a friend for about 1,500

Only thing that sucks is im on house arrest and havent been able to really get a feel for here.

i eventually wanna upgrade to gsr tranny.. but not till im FREE!!!

any one have any advice on anything i should add to make it move a little faster?

I want to go b20/vtec but i heard that isnt all that reliable.... no?

If anyone has b20/vtec please let me know how much it cost and any other problems you ran into. thx

-Bran

Well what are your goals, over all, how much are you looking to spend how handy are you with tools and cars?

b20vtecs and any built motor it's all on 2 things 1st BUILDER *including what parts used 2nd USER how it's treated.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but that's a stock bumper. It's just cut up for the IC and fogs.

I think your right , mabe its somthing about the lip that threw me off. Still looks like *** though. Might not be so bad without those big *** foglight holes hacked into it. Hell the lights arent even centered in the oversized holes.

I'd like to see a head on pic of it , I still think the fogs should have been left out.
I mean its already cut for the i/c , this is a necessity , but the fogs just seem like overkill.
