Welcome. Goodluck with your Civic, make sure you check out the rules at the top of the EF civic/crx page, this section is for technical questions.

 

welcome
once a honda man always a honda man

 

Half of the people on here aren't strictly Honda people... other people (including myself) are well versed in V8's... With that being said these forums are for technical questions... Where is the TECH?!?!

!!! IBTL !!!

 

Welcome man!!!!!!!!!
I'm fairly new myself.... good choice of car, I got a 91 si about a year ago
Post some pics in the appearance section so we can compare our rides

 

I just joined the site as well, so uhhh, welcome.... I can't start a thread yet, so I'm getting my post count up. Working with an old school 1987 Honda Civic Si. I'm an I-6 guy, but this is a project I can't turn down. I'll post a introduction thread with details once I can. Not trying to thread jack, but people are asking for a tech question, so I'll ask one. What engine would you recommend for an 87 Civic Si? The engine in it now has just over 100k, so it's not something I need to do immediately.

TIA

 

k24 head on k20 block, youll run 10s-mid 11s daily

 

thats old homie i thought you were from texas and did crazy **** rdx turbo motor

 

Welcome to the site, as said before we are often versed in other cars too.

Hope you enjoy the car

I've got myself a 400 based motor drag car
had an zed 06 from 02
and currently a z28 from 99

Sh1ft seriously make buddies with the log out, you don't just cobbled together a K24 frank and run 10s...

 

ive seen it done before, not as bad *** as it seems. plus i gave my reccomendation, not the best motor out there opinion. my suggestion is simple

 

Post it then the K23 is nothing like the other Ks it would be a total custom fab job and... for what reason really it's not that great honestly for what it is it would be a lot easier to grab a k20 and turbo it over custom fabbing that.

 

ya sorry bout that just searchin through the ef page and posted but i will get pics of the civic as soon as i finish the body work and paint it or maybe just do a progress page. im still a v8 guy though my 95 trans am is my baby first car i ever street raced and first car i will drag race.

 

oh yeah an i dont got money to spend on a k20 rather put it in my ta sry but thats my baby the civic is a daily driver

 

The 87 Civics are a completely different chassis to the 88-91. Check the pre 88 forums, here: https://honda-tech.com/forums/classic-hondas-106/.
