**** only reason I got mine so cheap is bc my buddys wife is makin him get rid of it and he'd rather sell it cheap to a friend and see it done right than sell it to an idiot. even tho its gonna be mainly a "track" car it's still gonna have a small system in it. got a friend who does fiberglass work and we are gonna try fiberglassing an sa10 into the spare tire well

no clue on a power goal. idk **** about what kinda power these put out modded so I can't even guesstimate.

Turbo'd ive saw d-series do 800+ but that serious... 400 is easy to hit.. All motor d-series 160+ to the wheels is doing good lol, GSR's b18's will do 350 pretty easy on stock internals.. non vtec b18's not my thing i know jack **** lol.

well I'm lookin to build the motor capable of doin 11-12 sec runs. suspension I've already got figured out so that's not an issue. So are you sayin I'd be better off with the d16z6?

nice thats what i got //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif, yeh umm z6 pushing 400 horse, as long as you should drive, should hit your goals..

 

[lowriderram_95 10+ year member]

well then I guess I'm goin back to the junkyard tomorrow and rippin out that z6. should I get the ****** with it also?

it'd be nice not doin a typical dohc swap, several of the local racers have b16 and 18 swaps and I like to do things a little differently than everyone else

since you have one do you know of any way to lengthen the seat brackets? I'm 6' 2" and it's a lil snug for me

I would, i ran my ex ****** with boost, nothing serious stock internals probally making like 160-170 but it was fine, you will see dumb ***'s telling you to run like a dx or cx ***** for long gearing because its best with boost.. but my standpoint is : The ex ***** is the shortest geared d-series *****, and it still has longer gears than any B-series *****.. B-series guys are fine with there short geared *****.. See what im saying lol..
