Hello,

Ive got a red da9 its a 91 RS its all pretty much stock except a stage 2 clutch and exhust.

I know im going to have to lower it and put some rims on it but i dont want to at this moment i would lije to work on the motor.. any suggestions for me at all??

K-series, both Hasport and HybridRacing make mounts for that application. Don't waste your time.

no money to play? then you sit on the sidelines and watch. probably better that way, cuz you'll have a reliable DD lol.

Going LSVTEC isn't as simple as slapping a vtec head onto a none vtec block, to do it right the first time will cost you more then a grand with parts, Tune, etc.

Exactly, most people just starting into builds forget that when you start mix-matching blocks, heads, pistons and cranks you are going to need some sort of engine management.

I'm assuming your just another troll, but in the event your not...you need to do a lot of reading before you make a thread like this. There is at least one thread like this one every day. If you searched you would find answers. In the 10+ years that honda-tech has been around do you really think someone else hasn't asked the same question? Do a lot of reading and use google frequently; you'd be suprised how much you'd learn.

5 seconds worth of searching google yielded me these:
