i recently blew a whole in my head so i decided on some changes. i have totally rebuilt my motor, and i wanted something lighter to put it in. so i traded my gsr shell for a red 94 dx hatch shell. wait...before you cry. i kept all the blk leather interior, my tokico shocks, h&r springs, konig heliums, c/f hood, and full engine swap. i was also given a fields vtec controller, a dx ecu(for breaking in the motor), front/rear ctr lips, ww sides, ctr momo steering wheel, and the shop i traded to is doing the complete changeover.

the motor:
-gsr block bored .25 over(stock rods)
-.25 overbore honda p30 slugs(jdmb16a2)
-brand new jdm itr head
-mugen headgasket 2-ply(total 11.7:1 c/r)
-kms dual springs and titanium retainers
-jdm itr valves
-comp cams stage 2 camshafts
-genuine ctr valve cover

+many bolt-ons

i cant wait to get my new hatch on the strip!

well mainly because the walls were scarred from the head debris. i cant bore no less than .20 and since honda makes a factory oversize of .25, i went with that. my block is still being inspected so i may need to go over that. i saw the scarring and i think i may need to do at least .5.(i inspect metals for a living) hopefully i can get away with .50 because 81.75+ and ill have to sleeve. we'll see. ill keep you posted.

Why not go to 84mm and have a 1.9L engine. the walls will be able to handle reving up that high since you have the factory rod/ stroke ratio. You could put down some nice torque with that.

yea true. but my woman is paying for the rebuild. so im on a "if i need to budget" the price will go way up if i get it bored that much and sleeved. i want to but im trying to be honest. ;)
