SolLesHonda Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 Bore vs. Stroke Which would you pick for : 1) Auto-X car 2) Daily Driver with some extra power 3) Drag Car And Why? Don't just pick one, you have to give logical reasoning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
koffeeDC2 Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 how would the handling be on the daily driver cause im leaning toward the auto-x just for the increased power and handling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SolLesHonda Posted November 11, 2006 Author Share Posted November 11, 2006 ? I am asking would you bore your motor or stroke it. Like for a DD would you rather have a stroked or bored motor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TS John Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 Can you point in the direction of a place that would tell me what that means? Or explain it? Edit: Sorry, not to bring down the thread or anything, but I am here to learn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mycarsux Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 1) bore - high power coming out of the corners, faster revs 2) stroke - because bore would feel weird on a dd 3) both - why the hell not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pyrorocketeer Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 1. bore - push higher revvs, and make more top end power, less rotating mass = faster and higher revver. 2. stroke - more torque for daily driving, always a good thing so you don't have to revv it to 8 grand to get up a hill.... 3. both - no replacement for displacement.

..SSR.. Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 This is a rather dumb thread. You can't bore or stroke an engine for autocross without changing classes. Drag doesn't matter since the engine doesn't have to last long (see why some drag cars are using 100mm+ stroke and turning 10k). Daily, who cares. I'd rather bore. More displacement, more top-end over equal displacement stroked setup (who needs bottom-end in a Honda?), makes the head flow better, wears better.

mycarsux Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 Lol, that's true SSR but I went to an autox one time and there was a civic si. The only reason he was in the "Sport Tuned" class was because he had a CF hood. Lol. He was running with a stock Sti, a stock Z06, and a Mustang Cobra. The Z06 and the Sti were running like 39 seconds (which for that track was very good). The civic was running a 43 and that's the best they had all day. Mind you the Sti had an AMAZING driver. But even the smallest of changes can put you in a different class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hatch92 Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 i would bore it fo auto-x to keep the car in the migher revs a little easier stroke for a dd for the stop and go bull crap. and def both for drag big stroke+big bore=big power Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

..SSR.. Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 Doesn't matter what you do to change your class. If you want to waste a couple grand on an engine build so you can not really be any faster in autocross and still get your ass kicked since you outclassed yourself, go ahead. RPM doesn't matter in autocross. Your courses are generally less than a minute long. If it was a roadcourse, then it would be different since they are 30 minute sessions. You don't need anything for daily driving. Somehow my 107bhp and 102btq work fine for me daily driving. I can even start out uphill in 3rd if I didn't care about my clutch.

More displacement, more top-end over equal displacement stroked setup (who needs bottom-end in a Honda?), makes the head flow better, wears better. engine dont have to last long on drag cars? see thats what i mean , thats just something someone dumb would say. hilarious. oh , lets spend 20,000 on an engine , so we can blow it up in 3 runs and build a new one. yeah sure SSR , thats exactly what they are thinking dude. your actually trying to tell me that the bottom end has anything to do with the amount of air the head can flow? dude , just leave and go to HT. get lost on the way. i hope you fall on your big nose and break it , wanker. better yet i hope someone smashes you in it.

..SSR.. Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 They don't need to last long. Run an event, tear it down, re-ring it and put in new bearings. Resleeve or bore at the end of the season. I never said bottom-end doesn't affect headflow. Reread my post. Bore makes the head flow better.

cranny Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 the bottom end has nothing to do with how much air the head is capable of flowing dude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
