honda has the best engine tech available very impressive i'll give them that. Its just whoever they hired for their designs needs to get fired

Its not like the D was some great motor that deserved praise. They're replacing the B with the K which is a huge step up. I say if improvements can be made than in with the new. IMO all Honda's are ugly as ----. They only become less ugly when we get used to them. The EF is an ugly ------- box, that the EG is an ugly ------- egg on wheels, the EK isn't too bad but it ain't no Enzo, and the whatever the new one is is a ------- minivan.

Well, if all of us on the site had one K series motor, we'd all be living in our cars, and the one K series that we had wouldn't be in pieces while we're playing/tweeking/upgrading it.
The D and the B made honda what it is. If they wanted to bring something better out that would be fine (like a K in the accord or something) but to just axe the D and B is stupid IMO.


W/E, when is your traction bar write up coming. I'm making one foe sho'. (and I'm waiting on you) :-*

Re:New Civic type-R
 

very very true. the hondas i liked where the 88-91 civics,crx, and the 92-95civics. after 96-00 i thought they fucked it up. then i got used to seeing them around and i liked them alot. especialy when the si reapeared in 99'.

Re:New Civic type-R
 

Give the K series some time, they'll eventually get cheap, they're just too new. And with the more K-series comming out the GSR motors will become cheaper. And its not like there will ever be a shortage of B and D series motors so who cares that they stopped producing them.


And the traction bar setup will be done hopefully before new years but I'm not making any promises. I got most of the parts at home, my finals are next week and I go home next weekend to get started on it. So hopefully before New Years

Re:New Civic type-R
 

exactly. We dont like the K series now just because its price is high. Soon we will all forget about the D because the B will take its place. And later in the near future the K series will follow...

Re:New Civic type-R
 

Chevy was crazy smart with what they did. I can take a 59 chevy and stick a 350 from an 89 Camaro in it. Crazy. Thats one thing I wish Honda had done.

The D series today is what the A series was years ago. Eventually we will all look at D's with disgust, buy B series for dirt cheap and pay a few G's on a K series swap.

Re:New Civic type-R
 

I just said that :P

Re:New Civic type-R
 

In a different fashion, and I added a bit more :-*

Oh well. +1 for me.
