1. Old thread....

2. I agree with you guys, the 5,000 richochet spent on his JDM B16b would have been much better spent in a dsm. However I'm sure you will all agree that we work with what we got and he happened to have a civic hatch so he got a sick motor for it. I mean really when was the last time you saw a hatch with a CTR engine in it in the states? kinda cool if you ask me.

3. The 5,000 he spent to get his hatch to a 14.4 1/4 would have definitley gotten him a 1st gen eclipse or talon and modded it and gotten nice times but a 1st gen would have alot of miles on it and modding the engine wouldn't have lasted him a quarter as long as his practically new civic with the new engine. And a 2nd gen would have cost too much to mod for that price to get a similar time.



anyway in any other situation I would agree with you buuutt seeing as it is a very rare and unique swap i kinda would have gone the same way as him. just for the gotta have it factor... kinda why I stick with my 2nd gen gs-r rather sell it and get a newer gs-r.
