[Adam_J]

nice work fella!

[Pistol Pete]

I see you have started a thread about the brakes. Is this nearly done now?

150bhp D16? Whats been done?

Not being picky, just that D16's aint that much tuneable unless your boosting it.....

[browndk04]

I used to have a d16 civic and done a little work to it. With a good tune, cams and a good port and polish 150bhp would be easy. Coupled with a s/s manifold and exhaust Your laughing. Btw the d16 aint vtec the b16 is :)

[turbojolt]

wrong there is a vtec d16 engine

[turbojolt]

also there is loads of tuning parts if you get them imported from the states

Sound like a good conversion mate, shame that people seem to be criticising it without even seeing it !! alot of people on here are only interested if its on speedlines with GSI bumpers and a redtop, good to hear you doing something different !! was it hard, alot of fabrication involved ? cant wait to see some pictures, best of luck !

[adam c]

sounds a good project.what gearbox you using?have you got the wiring sorted or the engine running yet?have you any pictures?(btw you need 15 posts to be able to upload pictures)

[DaveyLC]

Seems like alot of work when you could have just thrown in a X18XE1, cam, manifold + remap you'll easilly see 150 horsies.. Plug and play. with a 50kg weight advantage over the C20XE :D
