    One has a b16, one has...fuck.


    Let me get back to you. I think it's a d16, and another is a ZC...but I don't wanna be wrong. I know one's got the b16...

    if they're the same price, then B16>ZC for sure.

    My stock ZC only put up like 116hp 102tq. I dont think there was a stock b16 there, but i think the lowest hp for a b16 was sumwhere around 140-145 if i'm not mistaken.

    You shouldn't have left so early, i wanted to see what ur car had. I dont think i ever even saw you pop the hood

    Haha, I keep it closed for two reasons.

    1) It's just a stock LS motor. Aside from being an OBD1 conversion B-series in an EF with an adjustable fuel press regulator for emissions purposes...it's nothing special.
    2) My hood release cable was annhiliated about 4 years ago when a tire detreaded itself at about 95mph wrapping my fender inside out and up over the hood...hence how I ended up with the Z3's. When that happened, I never put the cable back in. I bought one...just...never made it in. When I bring home a halfcut, I'll probably take one from it. So it's kinda a bitch to open for now, though.

    That and it's not ALL that pretty under the hood. It's converted and everything, it's all hooked up...but I've got loose wires everywhere. Give me a couple months. I'm trying to get my hands on a CRx to drop my D15B2 in, and cruise in it while the civic hatch gets COMPLETELY disassembled and painted and re-done. It'll all be cleaned up, then. I won't have converted to LSVTEC, yet...but it'll look cleaner.

    For now, just check it tomorrow in the mountains. The mountains is where the 1.8L will show it's potential over the 1.6L just due to torque. I can jump the hole quicker than the 1.6. Highway is where the 1.6 was meant for. You'd eat me alive out there.

    Anyways, back on topic. As for the ZC half vs. the Si half, or whatever the case may be...I'm waiting to get a full inventory on what the dude's got down there. I'll probably price the Si differently from the ZC, or just offer all pieces seperate (IE: JDM front OR B16 motor....etc)

    I need to get a hold of him like...tonight.
