What other hearsay information do you have about the motor? Do you have the specs?

OMG.

Hearsay? What... that the Civic is highly modified?

Ok, you must be right. It was probably just a platinum Honda making 500 HP on OEM components.

Have you ever tried to launch a front-wheel drive car with 500 HP? Have you even done an oil change?

Do you have any idea what your talking about?

Enjoy your ignorance. Bye.

Like I said, do you have any specs of the motor? Or are you just going to assume its 'fully built'. Do you even know what motor its running? k20 ? k24 hybrid?

No I have never launched a fwd with 500hp. I am not stupid enough to make a fwd car have that much power... I was going to but woke up to myself. Yes I have done an oil change too - quite a few of them too.

I know exactly what I am talking about but it seems like your selective reading is getting the better of you.

Phoenix AZ - American are you? Explains everything...

LOL 2 bar and 585HP for a civic. LOL. thats just lame.

the GTR makes 480hp at only 10psi. Bye bye civic - useless POS.

How the fuck is nearly 600 horsepower lame? Ah thats right, it's not a Skyline :D

Fucking fanboys.

Seriously,...... how old are you? Do you really need the engine specifications to figure that the engine might be modified from OEM? You're killin' me here. Aaugh. I can't help you. There is really nothing I can tell you if you don't understand. Pointless.

I have 3 sponsors on my 4 cylinder car (600 HP) for the past 2 years. I have broken 3 speed records in class. Sorry you couldn't figure it out. It's really just a balance of phased power, gearing, negating weight transfer, and of course, slicks.

I am sure your an expert.

What kind of comment is that!?!? You have much to learn. I have never heard this type of digression based on nationality in an auto forum. Hopefully some years will allow you the time to grow and not show this weakness again. I have many friends from Australia from my days in Uganda and have not received such shameful prejudice. Read my original post: It is merely a 'cut and paste' from a witness who was at the race in Singapore discussing the real conditions under which the race took place. Consider adding some truth to your passion.

3rd time lucky maybe...

Do you know the specs of the motor? Yes or no? Why is that such a hard question for you to answer???

I dont care that you have 3 sponsors and I really dont care how many records you hold in any class.

just had another look at that motor. As the exhaust is on the front side of the head I would believe it to be a B16C ....The K series motor has the intake on the front side. I do know they will go to 1.8 and even to 2.0 litres with the larger sleeve kit.But beyond this i am unsure. As for the motor having a built bottom end. I think it would be a safe guess to assume it at least has forged pistons and beefier rods at least. These motors were not designed for a turbo application from the factory. Hence pistons and rods would be relatively lightweight in mind for the intended application that being big RPM's. I know I wouldnt go to all the expense of installing all that big dollar turbo hardwear wound up so high into a standard motor.

I haven't seen the engine. There is no possible way for me to know the specifications of that particular motor. Don't need to.....u missed the point...entirely. It is an irrelevant question, as I was comparing to OEM Honda motors as a baseline.

I was trying to explain to you that building a high power 4 cylinder vehicle with front-wheel drive can be done and built to go fast, but requires a lot of $$$ and several measures to deliver the power to the ground....u didn't get that one either.

I don't understand your inability to comprehend simple points and have dialogue that doesn't digress into off-topic personal insult. Unless... you are just trolling for conflict.

    • @666DAN sorry to bring you and old thread.     I've got my de+t done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.    Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd when selected . But nothing when in  drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic. I'm sure there is maybe 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Do ya have any ideas?     Cheers man
    • Well I recently changed my rear axles and was thinking if I bumped anything, I have been driving the car for a while now though... But it has been raining today so everything is wet under the wheel arches. Brakes feel fine and can't hear any of the metal screamers, I had a squeak coming from one of the handbrake drums but that seems to have gone away a while ago. I was going down a hill when it lit up and I did feel the abs bite for a second and question why it did it?
    • Correct. Um. I dunno. I haven't cared enough about the way that the NA cars work to know for sure. But..... The 33/34 turbo manual cars have an electronic speed sensor in the gearbox that outputs a +/- (ie, sawtooth AC) voltage signal. That is connected to the speedo. The speedo then outputs a 0-5v square wave (ie, PWM) signal that the ECU (and any other CU on the bus) sees. The speed sensor is NOT directly connected to the ECU. So here's the problem. Your new ECU expects to see the PWM signal, but must somehow be getting a direct signal from the diff speed sensor. Which would suggest that the wiring of the NA car is not the same as the turbo cars. I think you will need to spend some time with (hopefully the wiring diagram for the car) and a multimeter to see what is connected to what. Then, presuming I am correct**, you would then want to separate the ECU speed signal input from the rest of the car's wiring, and probably either buy a speed signal converter, or build one using an arduino (or similar). That would take in the speed sensor signal and output a scaled (and suitably rearranged) signal for the ECU. ** We shouldn't presume that I am correct here, because there might be something else crazy going on. I don't think you could convert the speedo to be fed from the gearbox sensor, because the pulse rate from that sensor is probably different to the diff sensor and then the speedo would read wrongly. And this also wouldn't fix the ECU's problem either, because the ECU doesn't want to see the gearbox signal direct either (assuming that they are all on the same wiring, for some odd NA related reason, see above caveat!) Does this help? Probably not. Can you make it work? Almost certainly. With the above work. You should buy a handheld oscilloscope from Aliexpress so that you can view these signals directly. Connect up the probes and drive the car. Show photos of the screen when drving at known speeds and connected to different places, and we'll see what we can learn about it.
    • Assuming your brake pads are not worn right down, I'd add a little brake fluid. Is there any sign of a brake fluid leak?
    • Hello all,  I need of some help. On my drive home my handbrake light lit up and started flashing. When I got home I checked my handbrake sensor under the centre console and nothing seemed out of the ordinary. I have scanned my car via the consult port, no codes shown. Checked my brake fluid as well which is half full. Tried unplugging the brake master but it didn't change anything. Thoughts on what it could be? The master float doesn't seem to be stuck. My car is an 1998 ER34 sedan GT. No hicas but has ABS Photos below 👇🏾
