Where would you buy a 20b anyway? Ebay and Amazon got nothin'. No 13b REWs either
I forgot all about this thread...I'm a monster...
Thinking really hard about a used Giulia, but afraid to bite the bullet because Alfa Romeo. Reliability seems to be...okay-ish so far though?
I haven't really heard of anyone piecing together a 20b that way.Isn't a 20B just a 13B with three chambers, two center housings, and only needs specific eccentric shaft and manifolds?
I think I dislike the fake scoops next to the doors most.The fake side scoops next to the headlights still bug me. They'd be cool if they were functional
In the meanwhile an North American Tuning/Performance shop Vibrant Performance beat the Tsukuba FF record with a 53.071. Link here. Video here -
Any Era member have a turbo setup that passes emissions? I bought an RX8 a couple months ago and have been planning out a build for it, then I remembered emissions tests are a thing.
Hopefully the production model doesnt change too much, really liking the looks of the e-tron gt
Supposedly the Taycan will slot under the Panamera (though Im not sure I believe that anymore), I dont see too much wiggle room for the Audi GT to be priced under that. Expecting slightly above A7 prices at a minimumThat's pretty much based off of the taycan, right? I wonder if it will be a good amount cheaper than that car.
Yeah. He's gonna be rocking that Rocket Bunny Pandem for it.That is one modded Zupra. Looks like he's going for wide body kit too?
Oh my god I love this. Is actually something that might feasibly come out? I will probably be there day one.That honda EV concept finally got a prototype variant, after all the safety regulation redesigns I still am absolutely in love with the design. Only thing I would change is making the black piece on the hood the same shade of white. But man It looks really neat.
I also love this interior
Yes Honda says that prototype is very close to what they want the production model to be like, so i am guessing it's gonna be 90% similar to that. It's also supposed to release by 2020. Unfortunately it's JP and EU only :(Oh my god I love this. Is actually something that might feasibly come out? I will probably be there day one.
Goddamnit of course it's not for America.Yes Honda says that prototype is very close to what they want the production model to be like, so i am guessing it's gonna be 90% similar to that. It's also supposed to release by 2020. Unfortunately it's JP and EU only :(
The price they've talked about is around 30k and the range is about 125 miles, clearly a car designed for people who just drive around in the city and then come home to recharge.
Ohhhhhh an EP3 Si. You got tons of aftermarket and engine swaps to play with (K series). Here's an EP3 goal for you (if you have one)Going in the morning to check out what looks like a pretty mint 03 Civic Si. Everyone seems to hate on the 7th gen and the Euro styling but I've always wanted one since I was a teenager. Wife's car got destroyed by a school bus so I'm giving her our 2016 Mazda 6 and the Si will be my new toy.

Unfortunately it wasn't very mint at all :(I have one. Wonderful cars. I know RCR shits on the term but there is so much potential in them. 4x100 wheel pattern kinda sucks for wider wheels that fit the EP3, I would personally look for a 04-05 with the five lug. And check the left side of the valve cover for oil leaks, a pretty common place for leaks on K series motors.

Body was in decent shape, interior all there and pretty clean but there were warning signs from the jump. Guy kept saying it was an 02 (it's an 03), he had already warmed up the engine before I arrived which is super shady. Motor appeared ok from the a visual standpoint but the oil level was at the very bottom of the dipstick and the oil pan undercarriage was very gunked up with sludge.
No cell codes which was a shocker but it has what sounded like a bad case of piston slap that you could hear from the driver seat while test driving. (Wasn't the usual tick from the injectors). It doesn't look like it was beat on just really neglected which was a real bummer because it's hard to find them without a ton of ridiculous mods. Oh well the search will continue...
Aw that's a shame dude. I love the Si line, I finally went back to it earlier this year with a 2018 Si.
Not to mention the EM1 Civic Si is also rare as hell. I saw one at last year's Honda meet. Of course it was modded, it was kept somewhat clean. There was an immaculate factory one as well, but had a stupid decal on the rear bumper.Aw that's a shame dude. I love the Si line, I finally went back to it earlier this year with a 2018 Si.
I have always wanted an EM1 just as a project car where I can whatever weird crazy stuff I want to it and feel relatively guilt free. But the price on them has gotten ridiculously high.
That sucks, if you were just looking for a straightforward example to drive as-is that doesn't sound like it. If they were willing to give a huge discount on the car for the purposes to engine swap it maybe - an 02-04 RSX Type-S motor can literally swap in with nothing more than the engine, trans and ECU - but depends what you're looking for out of this car.
This eBay coupon is killing me, I keep looking at wheels lmao.

Lol that's the curse of buying older civics ESPECIALLY hatches, they're either on their last legs, clapped out to hell and back or if they are stock look like they've been through the shredder.There is actually an EM1 Si for sale near me for $3800 but it looks all ratted out and has 200k miles. I would be happy with any of the old hatches but again they are probably all wrecked or look like F&F rejects
Easy fix for salt is to get a car wash every week. Even just the cheapo ones will do as long as they spray the underside
I would love to see the underbody to see the suspension geometry that they used to keep the torque steer under control at 800hp. My old 2ZZ Corolla Sportivo (Matrix XRS to you yanks) would torque steer like a pig when you got back on the throttle after shifting.
Gonna pick up a race header for the EP3 on the weekend 😊 Finally found the one I wanted - even though we won't have emissions checks anymore, I still wanted one with a catalytic converter.
