i would highly recommend the JDM '98 Spec ITR Header for that motor. which will cost anywhere from $300-400, if you go all motor. and i forgot to add that i have the Apexi V-AFC Controller

what kind of cars have you beat?

and where would I go to buy that header when im ready to buy one? and also if i get that header, you mentioned if im going all motor, Well can i still supercharge/turbocharge it?

i don't really push it too much out on the streets. 4000-5000 rpm that header screams. I've beaten RSX's, GSR's, GSX's, GST's, and 5.0's. even with the original d16z6 i dominated lots of cars and trucks. Before the swap, i've spanked a 2000 SVT Cobra.

if there is a nearby aftermarket place you can buy it from there. If not you'll have to order it online. just find the cheapest one. Sometimes buying online is cheaper than buying it at a local shop. i bought mine online new from cali. Paid under $350. you can supercharge your motor with that header.

you should post some pics of you're car i'd like to see it

i'll probably post pictures after i get a new paint job. but, to give you an idea. Picture a 95 Ex Shell with a heart of a B16A SiRII.

what color are you going to paint it?

i don't know what color yet. but, my goal was to drop the SiR II into a 91 CRX and with the 95 body i'll remove everything and get a good body and interior paint job, get a roll cage and customize the dash for drag setup. Plus any other body work like shaving door handles, etc.

that sounds sweet

it will take some time though. the 95 will have to be parked for a while. I may even drop a GSR in the Coupe and do a coplete engine build up.

man are both cars gonna be urs?

sorri, but the 2000 svt cobra DOESN'T EXIST. after all the problems w/ the 98-99's, then didn't make them that year.

j/w...ur clutch is a ACT 6 puck set-up for DAILY driving? j/w why u went w/ that, then u don't really have any HUGE power that needs that heavy of a clutch. i looked at the puck designs, but they were pretty useless (an u can't feather them, making for harsh engagement), unless u were makin GOBS of power that would eat a stock clutch...

im not doubting ur car an wut u have at all (sorri if it sounds that way), im jus asking why u'd wanna get something like that, which would make daily driving a bitch. (as for the mustang, i understand that coulda jus been a typo, or u THOUGHT it was a 2000, but was really a 2001...etc..)

it was the new SVT. http://www.stangnet.com/specs/cobra2000.html The only reason why i went 6 puck, was i just threw a rod on the single cam and had to take out a loan for the SiRII motor. Believe me, i'll drop in a 3-puck clutch soon. And the 6 puck handled well but i would say for 2-3 months after the motor swap. I need another. the lesser the pucks the more quicker the engagement. Most people stall out when they drive my car. Even the people that did my motor swap stall out. LOL.

I have a really hard time believing 2100 lbs. Is it gutted?

that's why when i slowed down and had nothing else to prove he drove by giving me his thumbs up.

Then it wasn't an SVT. There are Civics out there that can beat them, but not like yours. They're significantly more powerful than you, which leaves a couple scenarios:
1)He wasn't racing. The thumbs up was sarcastic
2)It was just the SVT bodykit masking a V6 Stang.
3)He has serious mechanical problems. Even driver error wouldn't factor in for that.

true. but that was no V-6 that's for sure.

Im with this guy... i drive a 91 hatch with d16z6 swap, with full interior it weighed in at 2180lbs w/o driver, i stripped out the rear seats and hatch area and some other small things, i think im pushing 2100lbs now, i'd like to know how you got rid of the 300 or so pounds that an EX has on a hatch...

well, the stock ex weighs about 2300-2400lbs.

i cant be exact with the weight of each part. but i'll list what i took off.

WHEN THE CAR WAS a D16Z6.

Spare Tire, Jack, The wood in the trunk, carpet in the trunk, trunk panels, back seats, back panels, all back seat-belt accessories, the carpet, all power steering components, all a/c components, stock header swapped for DC Sports 4-2-1 header, stock cat to exhaust, replaced with test pipe and tanabe hyper medallion exhaust, cut metal from under the hood, no passenger seat, no passenger side air bag, removed side impact bars inside the doors, and minus 12-18 lbs of tar that was underneath the carpet.

shit that must look like crap on the inside! bet it runs like a mother tho! lol:frog:

i'll add a roll cage just to improve the interior looks.

I still call BS on that figure, a B16 weighs about 100 pounds more than a d16z6, so your car is weighing in at about 2500lbs with b16 stock, i know the interior pieces dont weigh 400 lbs.. i'd say with that weight reduction you made, i'll guess you're pushiing 2300lbs MAYBE

go to a truckstop/dump/gas station and weigh your car on the truck scales, get a weigh slip, and post it. IM FROM MISSOURI, THE SHOW ME STATE.. SHOW ME.

Pretty good mods, you should get some ITR cams :P I imagine its pretty quick with all the stripping out, altho I wouldnt feed safe at all riding in that thing, it would probably crumple like a wad of paper in a wreck

I can guarantee that your car isn't that light since I have the exact same car and have taken it to truck weigh stations. I don't remember the exact # but it was no where near close. I do suggest that unless you only drive it on the track that you put all the safety equipment back. It is your choice, speed or safety, but I myself choose both.

i did state that it was with the d16z6 motor.

Possibly. But a Civic can't beat a SVT Mustang without some serious power. No offense, but you don't have that kind of power. FWD also hurts you a little in the acceleration, mostly on launch though.

first off, i never stated what mods the single cam had.

what mods did the single cam have? what kind of times did you run?

that was a few years ago and i never ran it.

do you remember what mods you had. cuz you had to have a grip to beat a 13 second car

By the rest of your posts, SIR II, I am beginning to doubt the fact that you have any of the mods you listed. Even in your ITR header thread you have'nt posted your actual pics but others you found on the net.It's the same in others too. You claim to have a VAFC and yet you post pics from other web sites. I admit it could still be because you don't have a digi cam but come on. Lets see some proof.

like i said before, you will eat those words.

And like I said before. You're FOS. Post your damn " blurry " pics ( which I think is a pathetic excuse ) and I'll fix them and repost em for you. If you have these mods good on you but till you post ACTUAL pics instead of cut and pasted pics you are full of it.

the thread about the jdm type r header was about the jdm type r header. not my jdm type r header. so, it doesn't matter what pic i posted. if it was titled my jdm type r header. i would have posted my jdm header pic. does that answer your question on why i posted "A JDM HEADER" and "NOT MY JDM HEADER"

you took off, he didnt, then after you slowed doiwn, when he passed he gave you the thumbs up because you had a somewhat quick civic, or he was sarcastic like someone else said, and even if you dont post a pic, I at least wanna know what you *think* your Z6 had done tot it. and why dont you just post the blury pics and let the guy fix em and noone will be on your back anymore.

Im confused... the site said it was never produced... so how did you spank a car never produced? :bloated: Im sorry but Im confused seriously :-(

If you only knew HOW MANY mustangs laugh at my civic... WTF... I'll be driving my civic normally, then im guessing they hear my exhaust then they pull up next to me and then laugh and zoom away with massive power... another time a mustang flew by me and got in front of me... then I floored the car trying to catch up and he heard my engine scream then he stuck his hand out his window and shook his index finger and gave me the "haha dont even think about it" or the "no no" signal... meaning dont even try to catch up.. we were already going like 50... I feel so owned... and DAMN preludes... its fun to race them and in a way I love racing them... I KNOW that I will loose every single race with them but its nice to hear their engine and I love to hear them shifting! damn I want a stick shift! :-) My auto can ALWAYS take them for the first 4 seconds... then they finally catch up and zoom me....why is that? cuz auto is easier to start off then a stick? :bloated:

auto's are easier to launch. less foot-work...better launches FOR THE MOST PART.

an yes...there is no such thing as a 2000 Cobra Mustang. get that through ur head SIR, cuz im starting to feel the doubts as well.
