help me choose JDM B16A or B18B

[sal_blkej2]

which swap would you get if you owned a 95 civic coupe dx and all you could afford was either one of these swaps....i'm confused cuz i like low end power more than top end so i dont know if i should get the LS and just build up top end or get the JDM B16A and build up low end...what do ya'll think...any info or opinions given would be greatly appreciated...thanks, Sal

[CheeseFrog]

I vote LS. You can't rev it as high as a B16A, but you'll have torque that the B16A lacks.

What B series is fast without FI? They pretty much all need some boost to not be a terd.

Replica: my B series is quite fast NA; low 14s at HRP

Boost is the answer to all our problems. 14's is good, but is it an LS1 killer?

I have beat every LS1 I have ever raced; my bf's Z28 (and it wasn't the driver b/c when I drove my R I beat him, and we switched and I drove the Z28 he beat me) then I beat a modded '99 Z28 at HRP. I'll keep my reliability and keep it NA.

[SecretAgent]

and i've never lost to an ITR in my POS 11 year old car either. when its back on the road, i FOR SURE won't be losing to ANY ITR now matter what's done to it, and still be way below the cost of an ITR, including my car, fixing it, and modding the friggin crap out of it. the LS rocks.

This is wt happens if you go turbo..3rd block!! and counting:duh:

[turboteg]

ls motor with turbo is very impressive. But a fully built b16a motor with 9:1 compression is down right exciting. With right fuel management ( AEM) you'll pull hard to 9k. Now that's exciting. Then you'll become a zo6 killer. How many hondas do that?

[CheeseFrog]

Plus if you decide to go LS/VTEC, well... It's easier to slap on a VTEC head onto an LS swap than it is to put an LS block under your B16A head. :)

Of all the LS1 times I've seen, NONE were in the 14's. Ever

You ARE JOKING right? Tell ya what...I'll give you 3 cars and the move against my bolt on LS1...Hell...5 cars and the move....I got 100bux on it right now.....

[ITRgirl]

Ok, you may think I am BSing, I really don't care, I know what hapd if you want to believe me then ok, if not, then that's ok too. Peace and Love:angel:

Converter, headers, exhaust, lid, free mods......so when we going to do this?

[ITRgirl]

Well I am in Cali right now, so it won't be for a while . Maybe when I get out of school and am in Houston, if there is till interest.

Well by that time I'll probably have a cam, heads, etc. But I know of a couple of other minor bolt on LS1's for you to line up against....... see ya when u get in from Cali..:blue:

Not to start a fight...but out of the box my LS1 ran 13.3 @ 106. A low 14 won't touch an F body unless you have luck on your side.

:smoke: <---I dig this muchacho :D

[gandhibrokemyskates]

i remember when my little single cam hatch drug a camero out of the hole till the 1/8 mile. hahahaha.

[TurboFord]

Beat an LS1 and you run 14s?


:bow: fast and furious has taught you well grasshopper :bow:


*sigh* You couldn't beat an LS1 running on 1 cylinder. Ladies and gentlemen, this is what happens when you stop taking your medication.


:smack: maybe if you knew somethin' you'd know an LS1 bone stock runs 13s, and with bolt-ons will do even better? Only way you beat one is if your "boyfriend" and "numerous stock LS1s" you beat stalled out about 6 times. haha. even then they could still beat you.


I tell you what, next time I'm out there I'll line up my little F2T Probe with tiny bolt-ons against your big bad Type R, or did you suddenly move to New York? haha.

[meangreen94z]

Ill run you in my bolt on LT1.

[ZAngel]

Maybe they took out a few spark plugs in the Z before racing! There is no way a 14 second car would ever beat a LS1 unless the driver of the Z was asleep. Maybe she just thought it was a LS1 and it was actually a V6. Who knows....

...but seeing as she can beat a stock LS1, that would mean that she is in fact a 13 second car. If she is beating modded LS1's that means she is a 12 second car. Tell ya what... I will set you out 5 and the move for $500.. What do you say? It should be easy, right?

[CheeseFrog]

Who knows? I had an ITR and I pulled on LT1's (not LS1's though) and an Audi S4 on the highway. The only aftermarket part I had was an AEM intake. If she has a little more, 102-106mph trap speeds aren't out of the question.

[ZAngel]

LT1's are completely different. A bone stock LT1 does run 14's, so I can definately believe your story. She stated that she is running 14's at the track and that she beat a modded LS1. I would really like to know what that modded LS1 ran and if it was a 14, I want to know what was wrong with the car.

[Josey]

And she beat a MODDED LS1 AT THE TRACK! That's even harder to believe unless she has an LSD running slicks cause that LS1 9 out of 10 times is going to out 60' her big time....that would mean she has to have 12.5 type times to reeeel that car in...

The more and more I hear this the more and more I say....

Stock LT1's ran low 14's...so I can see an ITR pulling on one from a roll. As I said my LS1 ran 13.3 stock. Anybody that runs a low 14 in an Fbody simply doesn't know how to drive.

Ok guys, the truth is about to come out. In light of recent activity which I have now been made aware of from a buddy are the actions of "ITRgirl" and her claims. The car activity which I am talking about is "ITRgirl" sporting a "type r" and her sig is www.mayhem-racing.com

This girl has never gotten any work done on her car by Mayhem and doesn't even own a Type R. She has some sort of infatuation with me after seeing my car at Mayhem once. Since that time, she has tried to pose as having my car. I don't know why she has done this but apparently she has already talked a lot of mess on here and pissed off a few domestic owners.

I have the upmost respect for LS1s and other domestics. Hopefully after my post, ITRgirl will fess up and get off my jock. Sorry for all the confusion.

P.S. I have never beat an LS1 if people are curious about her claims of "her" car
