that is the nicest hatch i've seen in a long time. not a fan of the carbon fiber interior, but who cares, it runs 12's. Just wondering if it has a b18c block, and b16 head is that a typo?

I asked the same thing. No, it's not a typo. I know most people do things the other way around 'cause a B16 head revs higher. But this motor is using the opposite setup, B18C1 head and a B16A block, becase the STR intake manifold was for a B18C1, so he swapped the head so he could use it. The head is still fully built and port & polished so it can still rev way past 10k

p.s. good eye though!

Volk TE37s. Sorry, but those wheels look perfect. Not too big on the old ones though.

Yeah Im a BIG fan of gunmetal rims too, and not ones with the chrome lip. I think they just look CLEAN that way.

Not a fan of the lip huh?? The polished lip on a gunmetal rim is the best part!!

The car is very nice... but im gonna have to agree that the 20k price tag is alil steep... he would get close to that if he parted it out or dropped the price to about 15k or so... but that my :twocents:
