Both are reliable.
Vtec-e has potential to save you money in gas and, like you said, it has more power in stock form.


If you plan to do upgrades to the motor then I think Z6 is the way to go.

Any place you buy a JDM motor from - hurry up and do it.
From what I have been reading, EPA has been cracking down on importers.

OP You def need to read this, I would be VERY weary of ordering from Tiger Japanese. Obviously every company has their positive and neg reviews, however hmotorsonline.com has THE best Customer Support I have ever had.
