    Since this isn't an "intro" thread, I moved this to a more appropriate section. Later, QD.

    blox stg 1, if you not going to upgrade springs and retainers, stg 2 if you are. a couple comanies have single caam regrinds, like the delta 272 fory7 cams. ]

    research, asking aobut everything a once is pointless, you wioll get 1million ideas. ask specifics like what will these cams do for me, port an polish, which intake manifolld. like that.

    the engine is already built from what ive gathered. it had a turbo on it before i got it and it was pushing 13 psi. so i figure its got a decent build already. i havent broken it down to see exactly what its got.

    I got the auto D series cause I needed something a lil more acceptable for a baby on board. ''father to be''. I sold my 93 integra with a b20b swap cause it was too powerful in the shifts a.d just too much ''driving'' to tend to a baby as well. The auto D is a very smooth car and still gi es me room to build on without going out of my purpose in getting rid of the DA. Daddy can still have a toy. I could use the extra hp but I wanna keep it baby safe.

    Ive thought about it but I got a really good deal on it. I just replaced the front bumper today and painted it. It had a bad crack on the passenger side. I really wanna do more to the looks right now then build when my son is a little older. Newborn.

    to ^^... grow a pair and build your own car one post wonder....

    as for the motor. run a compression test with the car warm and cold. as long as you see these goodies your in store to be able to make some good turbo power. the rod to stroke radio is a bit fugly on these motors. as far as an N/A build, zc transmission (either hydro or cable) with super short gears is your friend. i love mine.
