the new daily driver

[Phillyb]

ok i cant afford to fix the skyline while im going to school. so its getting parked for the next 6 monthes, bought this to get me around in. B18c type r engine with a turbokit hahah total sleeper. engine was rebuilt 250 kms ago along with new turbo. not much of a honda guy but for 4000 it seemed like a decent deal. thoughts?

Very clean! Boost level? numbers? any suspension on it? My friend has a K20 completely rebuilt turboed and it pulls like hell...

Nice daily!

[gtrjon]

man o man. when you buy a daily because you cant afford to fix your skyline you should stick with something stock and reliable. this car is neither. I am talking from experience and homemade boosted hondas are not good dds. best of luck

part out turbo, tune and be happy with the extra mpg

I would have picked up a Saturn SL2 or a Sunfire or something... this seems a bit extreme.

Great daily driver with exception to the turbo. Hope you don't have any issues with it. Which b18 is it? GSR or type R?
Removing the turbo and goin NA will be the safer route. If not, don't run more than 6psi. I know it's not much but it's a DD not a race car.

that thing aint no dd son unreliable is what it is probably more headache then the skyline its an nice set up very happy for you man but be ready to put money on it to keep it running and i know from experience.. best of luck

hahah well its kinda hard going from a skyline to a civic, i had to get a turbo. i think its 270 at the wheels or something. stock height but aftermarket springs

Aveo, what a sucker!!!

well it hasnt been dynoed. its tuned on 94, running 450cc dsm injectors and has walbro 255lph pump. and a fuel regulator. yea its a godspeed kit but from what i hear theyre not half bad. the engine only has like 5 hours on it since the rebuild so ill be happy if it lasts me 5 monthes without blowing. tuned for 8 psi

Sell the Skyline, you're going to need $ for tires and schmidt. Have fun with this as a DD/tuner - the insurance is much cheaper.
