ive been building my hatch that i baught with a blown d16. im going for a sleeper look and so far my mods are.
-jdm b16a
-url crank pully
-dc header
-full 2.5 exhaust
-gsr cams
-cai
now it looks like it belongs in a junkyard, has the trim ripped off (holes still there) faded black paint on half and black primer on the other half, steel 15' wheels, and a few dints. it also has z3 fiberglass fenders that i thaught would give it the appearance of being "rice" and therefore slow but i think im going with stock ones. my questions are what can i do to make the exhaust quieter and whats some good mods for a sleeper? i want to boost it but thats not very hidable.. thinking nitrous ?

 

that doesn't sound very sleeper to me....

sleeper to me would be like my dream set up:

si hatch
EITHER
DOHC zc with stock si trans with lsd
or
SOHC zc with internal work, such as DOHC zc pistons, with z6 head with mild head work and an si trans with lsd
b16 stock intake with k&n drop in filter.
maybe a 1" drop to give it the tired spring look, on something good like the classic ground control and koni's or some d2's or function and form type 2's, panted black to look stock
good sway bars and strut bars, also painted black to look stock
my oem sir exhaust (looks stock, but is 2.25" piping i believe instead of 1.75" stock)
high flow cat
full interior
steelies with hub caps


that's what i think a sleeper should look like, might my winter of 2010 project too...

 

thats basically what mine looks like, the body has no mods except the fenders, and there being replaced. doesnt matter what engine it has, cant see through a hood, but i agree on the exhaust part, i need something like that

 

hmotors online sells them

 

Keep it stock height put sum 13s with the hondacenter caps keep it as factory as possible and exhaust just get a high flow catwith ur piping and a good muffler with a stock tip keep it og it'll be dope............got any pics???

 

I'd put a stock crank pully back on. for your Oil pump's sake. Get some bigger cams and slap some nitrous on there. I did this with my old torqueless wonder of a b16 and made 234whp. made me happy.

Edit: as far as exhaust, try a long resonator. I believe my old one was 28". Really helped keep it quiet

 

sleeper?





















does this sufice?

 

just replace them back seats with a big rig mattress and it will definitely be a sleeper...!!!

 

I say a stock looking hatch on spray

 

i would use a stock air box instead of the cai to bring down the intake noise if your trying to keep it super sleepy

 

keep a clean stock look on the outside..dont make it look all beat up.....

 

heres what it looked like when i baught it and during the swap, its halfway flat black now ill get new pics later today

 

looks alot better, well if u want it to be a sleeper i will trade mototrs with u, i have the d15b2? lol looks good bro!

 

LOL...........

 

wait till i put pics of my dash up..its trashed and i dont even have a radio

 

heres some pics of it as it sits, notice i dont have a cooling fan

 

get rid of the fenders, put a more stock looking muffler on, and i would get rid of the taillight tint

 

Building a sleeper is retarded.

If it's a honda it's either going to win, keep up with most cars or be really slow. You're not going to surprise anyone.

 

just keep the car lookin stock.....^like 724 chris said"take of them fenders and get a stock looking muffler,get sum stock tail lights."all bout the exterior and interior look....

 

lol u named every possibility..

 

Exactly.

A honda is a car that has the capacity of all those possibilities...so it's not a sleeper in the slightest.

 

it has stock tail lights and the fenders are just waiting for paint to match

 

ya but take tint off of them, and i meant junk the z3 fenders, those are gay

 

the tint is off, compair the pics it was actually paint

 

My old 91 consisted of the following.

No tint
Stock black bumpers
Pea shooter exhaust
Base model CX badge
Factory matching red paint
Stock tails and headlights
Front plate
99/00 Si wheels
Stock fenders
No Lip

and an H2B.
