camilion4 Posted February 23, 2006 Posted February 23, 2006 Sup everybody, I just wanted to talk about some stuff my friend did to his civic. He has a 1998 honda civic and he swaped a CRV motor into it and changed the heads to a si I think and plans on doing more mods. It went in good except the motor was to tall, and he could not close the stock hood, so he is building a ram hood to adjust for the hieght. My question is, is he a total ass or has any one els thought or tried this befor. I am guessing it will be fast after he finishes all of the mods but at base level what do you think of hims aginst a real si or gsr motor no contest right? I keep telling him that just because it is a bigger motor it may not be faster than a si motor. I just wanted to see if any one has welcomed. thouhttp://www.hondaforums.com/style_images/1/folder_post_icons/icon9.gif http://www.hondaforums.com/style_images/1/...ns/icon9.gifght of it good and bad opions
CleanGSR Posted February 23, 2006 Posted February 23, 2006 This is nowhere near a new swap. Although more rare than an ls-vtec or straight b swap, it's still done a decent amount. BBS on here has a del sol with a mildly built CR-Vtec setup putting out some good power.
xalexjx@yahoo.com Posted February 23, 2006 Posted February 23, 2006 yea i belive bbs has that swap...its been done before...a farly common swap..
camilion4 Posted February 23, 2006 Author Posted February 23, 2006 yea i belive bbs has that swap...its been done before...a farly common swap.. Oh nice I am new to cars as I raced bikes and decided to get a civic over a mustang because of the under dog thing, but now a days imports are so quick it is almost a fair fight for horse power. I have never heard of it, thanks for the quick replies.
SolLesHonda Posted February 23, 2006 Posted February 23, 2006 Why didn't the hood close ? Did he put it in right ?
BigBirdSucks Posted February 23, 2006 Posted February 23, 2006 chances are, he probably took short cuts and is running completely stock internals. this is a big problem because it won't rev high enough for the cams to make peak power. it probably won't be as quick as a stock Si or GS-R, but it still has a lot of potential. and yes, I've had my CR-VTEC for a while. it's a pretty rare swap simply because people like taking short cuts. unfortunatelywith a CR-VTEC or LS-VTEC, short cuts = unreliable.
93ZCivic Posted February 26, 2006 Posted February 26, 2006 yea the crv motor is the b20 my buddie has it on his integra.....but the crv is not vtech p.s. b-series is like a tampon, every bitch has one lol..keep it real d-series all the way!!
BigBirdSucks Posted February 26, 2006 Posted February 26, 2006 yea the crv motor is the b20 my buddie has it on his integra.....but the crv is not vtech p.s. b-series is like a tampon, every bitch has one lol..keep it real d-series all the way!! you're right the CR-V isn't VTEC, but with some mods and a VTEC head, it can be. seriously, learn how to spell VTEC. and I'll put my B series against your D series any day of the week...I see more D series Hondas than B series. but hey, I guess you think your ZC is crazy fast. that's cool.
xxscaxx Posted February 26, 2006 Posted February 26, 2006 a kid i knew who had a CR-VTEC swap couldnt closed his hood either. he had a carbon fiber hood and had to shave away some of it. i dont know if thats normal or not.
teddybruckshot Posted February 26, 2006 Posted February 26, 2006 i no a couple of people who swapped a b20-vtec in their ride and that crap moves. but jus like with a ls-vtec u gota do that crap rite. its not jus like swappin in ur normal si, gsr, etc.
SolLesHonda Posted February 26, 2006 Posted February 26, 2006 yea the crv motor is the b20 my buddie has it on his integra.....but the crv is not vtech p.s. b-series is like a tampon, every bitch has one lol..keep it real d-series all the way!! Ok, you're "p.s." is wrong ... it's "B series are like tampons, every pootang needs one." Get it right. Do me a favor, stop talking. You are ruining it for us people who own decent/respectable D series. you're right the CR-V isn't VTEC, but with some mods and a VTEC head, it can be. seriously, learn how to spell VTEC. and I'll put my B series against your D series any day of the week...I see more D series Hondas than B series. but hey, I guess you think your ZC is crazy fast. that's cool. Hey hey hey, let's not hate on all D series man. Come on, don't forget about me. But you are right, D series are in way more Hondas. But my D > his ZC.
Humphries Posted February 27, 2006 Posted February 27, 2006 his isnt even a d.. its a ZC there is nothign but ZC. not a d16zc its a ZC so its not the same. and your a homo sense you spell it vtech
CleanGSR Posted February 27, 2006 Posted February 27, 2006 +1 for the homo. If telling yourself that a D series is better than a B makes you sleep better, than be gay and sleep with your boyfriend better.
SolLesHonda Posted February 27, 2006 Posted February 27, 2006 Hey, all of you have to stop hating on the D ... you're hurting my fawking feelings too ! It's ok .. I understand :(
CleanGSR Posted February 27, 2006 Posted February 27, 2006 Hey, it's only natural for me to defend my B16...
SolLesHonda Posted February 27, 2006 Posted February 27, 2006 That's fine ... Just don't forget that you know of at least one nice D16.
Humphries Posted February 27, 2006 Posted February 27, 2006 i like d series and i like ZCs my friend has a ZC civic also.
BigBirdSucks Posted February 27, 2006 Posted February 27, 2006 Solles, you should know you're D series is excluded from all D series put downs.
SolLesHonda Posted February 27, 2006 Posted February 27, 2006 Ok, just making sure ... I was like, "Wow, these guys all hate my car" Good to know. Thanks.
