Teh Frankestien is comming....

Well it's officialy time for me to park the Prelude in the Garage for the Winter and begin it winter long transformation from H23 to VTEC.



This will make car #2 in the Garage undergoing transformation. (300zx to a drift car) I have most of my internals ready (Cams (KMS), Cam Gears (AEM), Valves/Ti Valve Springs/Ti Valve Retainers, Forged Pistons...) and I have my Turbo Kit (Turbonectics T3/T4 hybrid) on Order. The Head is getting ready to go to the Machine shop for cleanage and portage.
The same mechanic is also redoing my block and balancing. He has had MAJOR experieince with Honda's. He owns a Turbo H23 Civic. He also does all tuning work for our local "Tuner" Dealership. Some of the cars he's done can be found Here. He's doing al machining of the motor and helping me install so I can learn more about this motor.

Sweet!

I wish I was that far along with the LeBaron project to be having my head work done.

Re: Teh Frankestien is comming....

lol i can't VTEC a nissan motor...and i dont think a spec V motor will do any good in a maxima...aren't they only 175 horse to the crank?? the motor i have in it now is probably about that with the thing's i've done to it...maybe a lil less because of the age and mileage on the motor...but im thinkin about rebuildin the engine over the summer or something...im not sure yet...or i might wait and get a new car...

No, No, No, I mean't I hope you didn't mean Swapping your motor for an H22 DOHC VTEC...

Of course you can't convert your motor to the Labled "VTEC"...

...BUT your motor DOES incorporate Variable Valve Timing, which is a comparison to Honda's VTEC.

You should use this to tape the vtec to your engine. It tapes right on just like a supercharger. Just make sure you allign the vtec parallel to the engine or it'll look gay.

Then, you should paint the car to match the color of the 3M tape. It'll look tyte!
