sweat convertable man ! damn man....the motor looks just like the d16a1....but carbed...i have a sedan....but still...im really confused....

But your motor looks like the one in the convertable, right?

If this is the case, there is no way that your stock tranny and intake manifold will bolt up to the D16A1 without major modification to both parts. Unless the motors imported to your area are different(?), but the EDM motors are essentially the same as JDM or USDM D16A1 motors.

Anyway, go for it!
Even if you have to swap the tranny and modify/construct an intake, it will be worth the effort.

Get it ceramic coated and it will last forever!

Well, that is until the welds break...
It is a PaceSetter after all.

But that's a good score!
I'm sure a header for your car is nearly impossible to find.

After all your traveling around are you still planning on making a trip to my area on the 20th?

cvcc_wagon · 02-20-2005, 04:28 AM

that oregon trip got canceled due to lack of people willing to make the trek. i would have had to have canceled as well if it was a go. i'm sure i will be down at some point in the next while tho.

i'm thinking of getting the header wrapped to help cool down the engine bay, after all it's not a crossflow head so the header is right under the carbs. any suggestions or woes from anyone?

Make sure the header has a good coat of hi-temp paint on them before you wrap them. A friend of mine bought a car with wrapped headers and found that they were completely rusted under the wrap. This was probably due to poor preperation of cheap headers.

It's just like riding a bike...
