How can you afford all of this ****?

If this is truely legitimate, then http://www.nopi.com should have everything you are looking for.

Instead of head bolts you have threaded studs that stick out of the head and you slide the head over them and then use nuts to tighten the head.

This block has ARP head studs:

My roommate did a B16 swap when he was 17 in his civic...there's a difference between a $2500 B16 and a $3500 GSR and all that **** he claims that he "needs."

What the hell? You listed them as something you "need" but you don't even know what the **** they are!? I'm also seeing that you need CTR cams as well as "stage 3 cams." You'd better start explaining yourself.

He's just been reading all this stuff in the magazines I bet. He doesn't really know what he needs, but why do you care how he gets the stuff? He said he has a good job and $3500 + isn't **** when you have a good job and no bills. Hell, when I was 18 I was making about $29k a year and living at home. Get off his nuts. And to the original poster, research is your friend.

who cares how he got his money? Doesn't really matter. Someone probably told him what some good stuff is to buy for his motor, so he just relisted it.

Look through our H-T sponsor marketplace for the best prices, they'll help you out.

If your looking for cheap prices try ebay for knock offs, don't expect to get real OEM/ aftermarkets for cheap at all.
