If you're going to spend good money on baller wheels, get Work wheels ;).

Work Meister S1's in white with polished lip. Or the chameleon crap where it changes color depending on the angle. :drool: :drool:
Yeah. Problem is they only make 4x100 in 15s :( I would want 16s.

Pfft. You and that GSR swap :P.
It will happen. And my 2nd gear synrco is being a beezy and popping out so all the more reason too!! Except I'm kicking around the idea of a b20v.... :oops:

As for wheels I'm really looking into CPRs. Those would be my first choice. I'm currently looking at Work Emotions too.

im tossing the same idea...the B20 would be nice for your car IMO because it will make u just a little different from others...and with the right set up u could gain more performance with the VTEC head(Redline) and with the B20 compression you could boost it to some good numbers if you go force induction...

Yeah my buddy has a fully built one in his DA so I'll drive it and see how I like it. I like the concept of it. I love the torque of the B20 and then you can get the top end and VTEC from the B16.

Don't the oil pans sit really low on those?
yes, but you gotta go lower to really be at risk lol and just drive smarter. its not hard to not smash a pan, pay attention to the road and watch for rutted lights

Great looking civic. I love the white paint job. I'm more of a black car person myself though lol.

I've been tossing around the idea of a b20 Frankenstein swap too if I can save up enough money.

Subscribed to this for updates =)

Agreed. Any dumped car can shatter an oil pan. If you're paying attention and drive smarter, you'll be fine. I believe companies make skid plates too. If not, you can have one welded up. The k24 pan is steel too vs. the cast aluminum K20 pan so you'd have better odds with that.

Should definitely got the K24 route ;).

im welding 3/8 steel right to my oil pan so it wont get smashed. now when you are really low, there are k swap issues, but at your height, i would say its doable
