Hi,
Love the EK-9 to bits, and have the chance to purchase one finally. i have had a couple of jordans, and have recently owned a SSB vti... owned it for 6 weeks and thought that i need more power. I love the Ek shape and so was advised to come to this website!:)
Been looing for an exclusive Ek-9 forum... this must be a new founded forum!
Anyway, this is kinda long for an introduction...
however there is one Q i wanted ask;
i know the ek9 is a great overall balanced car! what i wanted to know is the difference, for real(not figures), between a stock ek4 and a stock ek9.im asking about power and not balance. experience of this up grade will be appreciated
Thanks for reading.. :)
 
Hello! Welcome to EK9.org.

To answer your question, the ek9 has a more rigid chassis than the ek4, recaro seats, stiffer suspension.

The ek4 has a b16a engine, with 170 hp of power, the ek9 has a b16b engine with 185 hp. I don't know how much more torque it has, but it most be like 5lb/ft the most. The ek9 weights like 30-40 kg less than the ek4 :wow:

The b16b engine a de-strocked B18C Integra Type R Engine.

The final drive is the same in both cars 4.40. :mad:

Check out this video, this video can help you understand the differences between the ek4 and the ek9. :woot:

Let me know if you have any questions .. :nice:
 
thanks for the welcome. the video i have on my laptop:) type r legends:)
i am from the uk. the ek4 we have is a b16a2, which produces 158 bhp, weighing in at almost 1280kgs with a/c. i know the ek9 weighs less and has 20-30 bhp more, was just wondering on what the power differnce is through eyesight and experience
thanks though
 
In terms of Kg, I'm 100% sure its 16.3 kg of torque for EK9 and 16.0 kg for EK4(170 hp). This is equivalent to 118 lb/ft and 114 lb/ft respectively I think.

yes it's a huge difference, i beat a 170 hp SIR in the 1/4 mile time by almost 0.800 of a second :woot: A 160 hp will be even more the difference, it's 25 HP!
