nice...

 

 

ahhhhhh.....the b16....aka 'torqueless wonder'....congrats on the new swap

 

There some reason theres two pics of BOTH motors from the same angle?

And wheres the "tech" ?

 

although i am happy with my b16, you aint lying about torqueless wonder, rev all the way to 8k and "i am still not going anywhere" lolololol

 

Why didn't you spend the little bit of extra and do a Type R then...?

It sure looks snazzy though, I bet there's alot of top end there.

 

Congrats...and get ready for all the haters that can't mind their own Ps and Qs that will be telling you that you should have went 1.8.

 

is that an SI airbox/oem intake?
also does it bolt on to the cx/dx shell or do you have to drill new holes for it?

 

its a 99 jdm ecu. the shop i had install it made a harness. I went with the b16b for a few reasons. Here is why:
(1) cost I didnt have the duckets of a b18c5.
(2) I can change out the bottom end on my b16b and turn it into a ITR later.
(3) I am impatient.
(4) GSRs dont come with LSD even if its only got a 4.40 final drive.
(5) i could stand my slow sohc any more!

I didn't realize that so many people hated the b16b. In my opinion I think its a good motor for a good price. It also has alot of potential.

 

couldnt stand my slow soch any more i ment !

 

F*&k off b16 haters my b16 pushes out 400whp and over 300 lbs of torque.

 

yeah theyre only tourqless untill you use the $ you saved over a b18 and slap a turbo on. then the 1.8L is the torquless wonder... im still going b18c though

 

nice swap, i felt the same way about my little d16y7

I'd like to know also what airbox your running.

 

he did get a type r

 

<------here to support b16

 

LOL. Me forgets there is more than one Type R engine sometimes..

Don't play dumb anyways, you likely knew what I meant.

Oh shut up.

 

good job.. looks like a very clean swap.

 

lol...congrates on that b16b....get that engine bay cleaned up ASAP

 

hehe, I admire your honesty. Congrats on the new motor, is the difference worth it?

 

1.8 doesn't have much torque either lol nice job on the swap looks good bro

 

the air box is a 99 si box.

 

I think it was worth it !

Thanks guys for the comments ! when i clean the car this weekend i will put up some pics in the Appearance / Cosmetic forum.
