Some good figures from that D14 always good to see someone making the best of the engine they have instead of just swapping the d14 to a b16 or 18. :D

Definitly need to get me a sound clip of that exhaust/mani set-up, looks like really nice manifold compared to the others you see in d14's ! :) Keep up the work man, looking class.

Mani looks nice and shinny. I still have tinnitus though from when you drove off outside rosco's house.

Even i thought it was embarrassingly loud tbh,just had the rage for a moment.

Did you get the mount done ok?
 
I have a Y8 manifold here if your Interested? More power and torque ;)

yeah it's good to see people using what they have but when you think about it..
A decent 4-2-1 manifold with B pipe/ backbox and a decent intake set-up... is gonna set you back loads MORE than you can get a B16 for..
complete setup B16A2 i sold for under 400 ...
so in fact it is alot simpler and cheaper and easier and safer and more economical ETC ETC to swap the engine out..

lets us know what you choose to go for michael.. !!!! B18C6 is always gonna be high on people list's.... ENGINE PORN !!!!!!!!! lol
 
i love your spoiler tilt, was it easy to fit, i just got mines :dance:
just need to get them fitted.

It wont be anything less than a b18 topher,otherwise all im doing is building an ek4!

As for the exhaust,that will be staying with me (minus manifold and custom de-cat ofcourse) so it isnt a complete loss.

Literally scared to find out what the exhaust sounds like on tec :nerv:

2 minute job.

This is the only thing about hondas that annoys me,find something original and within 6 months its common!

No offence.just the way that it is :nice:
 
Haha to right i'm starting to really like my loud exhuast.. i was gonna change it but part of me turns into a little kid when i hear it start up everytime.. can't help but blip the throttle. :)
 
Aw well, I think it's cause it is an old model and alot of parts have been in circulation about.
And it's relatively cheap to get a EJ/EK, no like you see alot of the same rx7s etc modded the same? Lol.

Just need to think differently and get stuff that you like?
My car won't look the same as yours lol, as mines is White =P
So no worries there :dance:

Gonna try fit them tomorrow morning if it doesn't rain/heavy wind.

Oh n your car is totally transformed since the first post :nice:
 
Got a couple of updates here. As most will have gathered by now im quite the wheel whore,so after owning the jordans for just shy of 6 weeks i needed a change! So searched high and low for a proper light weight set of Jap wheels in a good fitment,finally i found a set of one of my dream wheels...

Mugen RNR's 15x6.5 and in the rarer +38 offset! Seriously light at 4.8kg! Because of the offset they fill the arches well at the front...
