so i just finished my swap today and im lookin to get some opinions. pros and cons from experience or what not. here goes...

can is a 97 ek hatch. 15 inch rota slips with falken azeinas 205 50 r15s. skunk2 adjustable coilovers, vis hood.

motor is a jdm b20b ( lower compression model ) with skunk2 intake mani, blox 66mm TB, crower stage 62401 cams, stock block, and stock valvetrain. megan racing 2.5 header and world sport exhaust, stage 3 clutch with fidanza 8lb flywheel, hasport motor mounts, avid lightweight shift linkage, im runnin a si tranny and a p75 ecu with a b20 base map. ( as soon as its 100% percent i will by hittin up the dyno for proper tune and to get some number, but let me know what u guys think about the setup.
im lookin for any kind of feedback.

thanks ht

 

i would have went with the skunk2 68mm tb, and find some one that makes aftermarket vt for the integra and i wouldn't have went with the 8lb flywheel, a ls will be able to leave you off the line that has a oem flywheel, and i would have went with a skunk2 70mm cat-back exhaust

 

whats wrong with the 8lb flywheel, u confused me there? and new valvetrain is def on the list of things to get asap, but i have a ton of financial stuff to take care of first ( that always seems to be the problem...)

 

I heard those tires suck, dont know for sure never had them but thats what i heard

 

you need inertia to get the car off the line so light weight flywheels like yours are more for road racing not street use, even pros will tell you that you can atleast go with a 12.5lb flywheel like i did, and the best tires in my opinion and are award winning are the bfg g-force T/A's

 

ugh i had the g forcs on my old car and i hated them, i felt like i hooked better wih my crappy nexens. wasnt a big fan.

but other than that, hos th set up?

o and b20 hatchek what do u have done to ur car, whats ur setup?

 

i love the azenias, ive had 3 sets and a few of my friends ru them and ive never been happier.

 

i never built my b20b, i just had a 12.5lb act flywheel, heavy duty clutch and extreme pressure plate, gsr trans, gsr dual bend shifter, 2.5" straight pipe with a apexi ws2 axle back and thats it but it just craped on me so ive gotta b18b coming and im not sure if im gonna slap bolt ons on it or ls/vtec, but i meant the street slicks from bfg not the baby street tires

 

oh the car is a 96 hatch but if i have been thinking about leaving the civics and buy myself a 91 nsx

 

Yokohama S drive FTW!
VT for sure, injectors, fuel pump, pressure regulator and ARP studs.

 

o yeah i have arp head studs

how did the motor blow. ive heard such mixed feelings about the b20.

 

it didnt blow, oil pump went bad so it would knock on cold starts so the bearing s are bad and the rods are bad so im just throwing in a ls and being done with it

 

cmon guys im tryin to get some opinions, what do u guys think?

 

any1?

lets try this again? lol

 

I should be driving a b20/vtec here right soon.... I hope it holds up!

 

first things first on all non vtec b20 motors.. VALVE ADJUSTMENT!

 

lets bring it back and try 2 get some more thoughts

 

sounds like you have a pretty solid setup. Have you taken it to the strip/track yet?

 

iv been using nitto neogens for years and theyr the best stree ttire iv used. i was big in the bmer scene and just got my first honda a few months ago and neo gens are still my favorite

 

maybe some pics would invite more comments.. anyone can rattle off this part and that part..

 

I probably would get some higher comp pistons if it were me, but it sounds like a good DD set up.

An 8 pound flywheel might be a bit of a pain with drivability, but it should make it quicker. A lighter flywheel is less weight for the engine to turn aka more of your power making it to the wheels.

 

Setup looks pretty good. Definitely would do injectors, valve train, and get a good tune. The only thing I did different is a 68mm S2 TB, and a bit heavier flywheel.

 

Acutally, with the B20, none.....i drove my B20 around two summers, with no issues as a daily driver what so ever. The B20 has a lot of low end torque and would just go from a stop with even the lightest of throttle. I was running a Toda flywheel with mine, it was around 8 lbs.....i have nothing but good things to say
