YeaH she got a real healthy power band pull from 1 thru 3rd gear ,I wanna upgrade the clutch kits and add a few power bolt on parts but alot of people are tellin me i shouldnt even waste my money on the b16 i should sell it cause it low mileage and just buy a gsr bottom end ,I'm not sure wich route to go at the moment

[Hecz]

not bad man, needs a little work.

 

[UCCRacing]

Very nice, as obvious, a good bath will help lol... The B16 is fine and good if your happy with it, stick with it... if not sell the bottom end and get an LS, or a B20 and do an LS Vtec...

HOly s**t that car is filthy!!

Clean her up a bit and post some more pics. For the engine, Id take it to a local DIY car wash, cover the dizzy and spray the f**k out of that bay with some degreaser! It will leave it nice and pretty. Also, getting the valve cover refinished will bring out some more "prettyness".

Oh and just a tip, when you take pics take a few steps back to show off the whole car, not just pieces of it.
