im not looking for a super fast setup... 15's are fine with me.

what im thinking is a d16z6.... and a rebuild.

mainly im concerned with two things. its reliable, and its clean. i want to have anodize fittings, polished parts, all that. im going for a show-worthy car.

again, speed is not a major concern- buuuuut if tossing in pistons that will up compression will add some hp, and they are the same price or whatever... then why not. basically, i dont want to waste money on making it fast, when i could spend it on making it look nice and clean.

any ideas on what to do? anything like... if i put cx pistons, it'll make my compression 11:1 or something...

 

you should try the search function; it will answer most of your questions. good luck on the 'nice and clean' route.

honestly, honda tech wont be able to help with that show crap. all that polished bullshit is a waste of money if you car is still slow.

 

People actually swap d-series motors? Why not spend an extra 500 and get a B16 if you're already spending 1000

 

a car doesn't have to be fast to have a clean engine bay.

im not saying i want it blingging, but clean, with nice parts is NICE.

and im not going for a b16 because i am working on a certain budget.

 

If you care what your engine looks like over going faster/handling better, then H-T is not for you. Talking about bling blang is suicide on H-T. RIP

 

do the mini-me swap...

i have a bunch of d16 parts...head, distributor, ecu, and a few other odds and ends.
