get the b18 and toss a vtec head on it. My b16 makes funny noises and leaks coolant all the time and i still love it.

Go LS/VTEC, just make sure you dont skimp on the important things. The TD04 is too small for the B18B. Get at least the T3 .48/.60 for it.

mmm ls/vtec...thats me ---- the d series

Re:Stay D or go B?
 

I keep hearing bad stuff about the LS/vtec, in regards to rod/stroke ratio. The LS can't handle the revs needed to really take advantage of VTEC. I spent a ton of time tonight checking out K-series stuff, looks interesting, but I'm going to need a bit more cash. I'd like to do a K24 from a TSX, the motors here are pretty cheap(2200 can.) and I could do my own mounts, it's the wiring that scares me. I'm also considering picking up an LS motor and using the head on a GSR block. Better rod stroke, lighter valvetrain, and no oil line crap. Or I'll ------ boost the hell out of the D15B!!! I just wish I didn't live in Canada, it's cold and we have ---- all parts availible. I'm moving to Florida.

Cool, any comparison pics against a Z6, A6 or B7 rod? I always thought the D15B was just a B7 block with a Z6 head, whats the deal?

You just couldn't handle the power of the mighty D... 8)

haha pat likes his d-series like he love's rod farva. pat and fook u both know ls-vtec will own u.

Re:Stay D or go B?
 

I'm sure if I ever build my d16z6 like I want to, it will own both of your b-series motors. Your just mad because your d-series motor blew. Once you get your B16 turbo running let's race, I wouldn't mind adding another b-series kill to my list.

Hotrex is just mad because my "stock" d-series at 12psi made more power than his "built" d-series at 12psi. :P
