you are mistaken. They have stock idle characteristics. and of course you have to upgrade your valvetrain aswell and cam gears and some tuning. the more mods u have the better. go with the 1.8 short block, high comp pistons, full jun3 head, skunk2 intake manifold and tuned with either hondata or jun chip on an obd1 ecu.

if u get crazy high lift cams then u need to raise the compression. u need retainers, and at leasst outer valvesprings (iskerdian is good). if u want a built b20 block read my sig. im willing to work out something if ur interested pm me. anywho, good luck to you.

If you want my opinion I would go with skunk2 stage 2's. If I could have it my way I would get everything skunk2 makes. I'm a skunk2 fan.

Ill bet youll see my tailights with one of my B16s

And CircuitSi, how much are u willing to spend on some cams? If u have lil money just go with ITR cams(00-01)

if you want torque, go with the 1.8 shortblock. If you want more hp than ctr cams without having to rev to the moon(although youll still need itr springs/retainers) id go with toda spec as, proven hp as high as 200whp, stock idle, and more hp that ctrs.

My Opinion:

GSR Block
CTR Slugs
Thinner Headgasket for bump in CR
Either CTR cams (I believe you can retain stock valve springs, retainers, etc. with CTR's) or Skunk2 Stage 2's (which are almost identical to Jun 3's) with apporpriate valvetrain
ATS 4.9 Final Drive

if you were in the market for some cams i would suggest to you either Skunk stage 2's or Toda spec B's. the are both a very mild cam. of couse you need to upgrade your valvetrain and reatainers....but small price to pay for some nice gains...

1.8 is all i want...i dont want anything crazy
seems like not only we have same cars.
Yet we want a the same setup

My brother in-law told me that higher cr will shorten the life of the motor a bit.
Is that true?
and a bump for you.
