getting out of the honda game
So guys i sold my integra. After i went through 3 b series turbod motors. (dont turbo a honda motor unless you do it right) and about $10000 i am finally out of the honda game. This is what i moved onto let me know what you guys think.
1991 nissan skyline GT-R
r32
101xxx kms
apexi intakes
apexi 3.5in exhaust
apexi downpipes
hks ic piping
hks electronic boost controller
torque splitter (just for some rwd fun)
ran a 13.1 @ 104.55 weighs in at 3240lbs without me in it.
big plans coming for a big single hopefully in the 600whp club on a stock long block.

i can see guys locally converting to lhd by using the Maxima interior it's identical or similer to that of a GTR but it's a R33 that i'v personally seen and other that had this done to be converted to lhd.

yea best choice i made. converting skylines to lhd is ****ing stupid and i dunno y anyone does it but their mistake. everyone stay away from turbod hondas go with a motor that is ment to be boosted like an rb26

Good for you man. You should def feel good you are one of the few in the states to own a Skyline. Looks like you have a good starting point for a big turbo'd monster. Can't wait to see your future plans. Congrats, again.

Re: getting out of the honda game
nah dont get me wrong hondas can be fast and there are plenty out there mine was too dont worry. dont say i cheaped out on my build or say i should of had a dart block or a deck guard i has a gsr block bored out to 84.5 mm golden eagle hd sleeves weisco 10-1comp pistons eagle h beam rods acl race bearings gsr head with itr cams a eldebrock intake mani the works i had abt 10gs into it and it was still the most unreliable thing in the world. i was in the shop at least once every two weeks. i am not saying turbod hondas are slow i am saying they are unreliable and they are motors that were not ment to be boosted. yes i know there are plenty of hondas out there that will beat on on the highway but one thing my gtr has that no honda has is traction.
