Nice ride!

Go on B16 or B18, but make it look so clean.

Hello New User, Welcome to Honda-Tech

There is a wealth of information here on this forum just waiting for you to discover.

Whether you joined to get some help with a problem on your Honda, wanted to see other peoples cars and get ideas for your own, wanted to buy some parts, or maybe you just own a Honda and wanted to join the club, a good place to start is with a good &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;SEARCH&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt; . You will notice the red SEARCH button on the top right hand side of the screen. You can search to see if someone has had a similiar problem, or has a similiar post to what you wanted to make.

The first screen you come to has a long list of different sections you can choose from, each having there own reason.

The first list you will see are Model Specific TECH forums. These are forums for general TECH related questions and post about SPECIFIC MODELS. A suspension question is not MODEL specific, as all cars have it, so that might be better suited in the Suspension forum. You get the idea. Before you post a question, SEARCH to see if it has been covered before, because it probably has. Here is a good link to show you how to use the search function. https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=979961

The next list you will see are more Technical Forums, except this time instead of car/model specific, it is topic specific, IE All motor, FI (forced induction), Suspension, Drag racing, AutoX, etc. Your questions about these matters go in the designated forum.

The next place you will see the Marketplace. Come on, do you need an explaination about this? Buy or sell your parts here.

The next section is labeled Honda-Tech Forums. You will find the Appearance and Cosmetic section. This section is good for when you want to show off your car and get feedback on what you have done. Or if you have questions about something to do with appearance in general, this is your forum. The other sections here are the Events and Meets section, where you can find out what is going on in your area, or announce something of your own. And then there is Kills. Tell stories of who you raced and what happened here. Enter at your own risk.

And then there is GDD- General discussion and debate. This is basically the Off-topic forums of Honda-Tech. You can explore these for yourself.

There you go, I hope that you read this and understand the layout of this website.

Again, Welcome to HT.

hi thanks for all the kind replys guys and to those who werent so nice. screw you.

i know you may have some dreamers on here but i am actually a qualified mechanic and have been working for porsche for the last 3 year so im not a 16year old dreamer. the only reason im rocking a 1.4 is as said my vti was distroyed in an accident in febuary and this will provide me with a cheap and stable base for the project.


and for all of those confused with the 2.0l b18 its very very simple. i will be sleeving the block with a set of dartons and then boring the block out to 85mm. the 85mm bore with the standard 87.2mm stroke will give me the 2.0l displament. its basic mathamatics.

the swap will start as soon as i get some free time, everythings here except time . just really been snowed under with other crap for the last couple of months lol.

nice setup, can i ask why you didn't go with the Dart block, is it because of the deck modifying required.

told you guys it was bored
