I heard someone said u chg to MT, then slap a BOT on it.. with D15 series engine easily get 220bhp even with low boost (0.4), but VTEC engine la.. non VTEC, around 190bhp.... (not sure on wheel or crank). if MT can do for RM1K+, BOT is around RM6.8K. Total 7.8K, u get 220bhp (VTEC), but engine swap to B16 7-8K oso... but how much BHP u get?

 

[rayzy22]

engine swap at most can get 185hp on engine....i.m sure other figure before also on engine.

don u miss one thing...BOT price RM6.8K for the item onli.if u go for induction u must consider about internal part of our engine.need to strengthen the part then only safe to boost.but of course if u boose up to 0.4 the standard engine can sustain it.nevertheless induction is where power highly attainable.

aik donz...planning to play with induction aaar?kekeke

I do doubt the reliability of a BOT. Its really a subjective matter.
B16A its safer to me as its a well made engine with no fuss.
I guess with the BOT, even the brakes needs to be upgraded.
Well, not asking for our nice looking City to become a monster. Just want a MT GB to fully utilize it.

b16 is 185bhp??????? DOHC VTEC?

 

[tjuantze]

Aiseh..this mechanic here very weird. Just as I thought can go look look see see when I am off. The place became car wash. Looks like the bengkel only opens when the sun goes down... uuuu......spooky...

 

[tjuantze]

By the way, any of you have changed the rear antenna before? How much would that costs?
My VTEC model does not come with one. And I don't really like the front A-Pillar antenna. I heard the reception of an internal antenna is not as good as external antenna. So, i might want to make a hole to put the rear antenna.

 

[donCityZ]

no idea tjuan. mine is oso a pillar antenna. IMO its nicer to hv antenna at pillar.

rayz.. the bengkel only open at nite???? suspicious ni... y is it so? hmmm....
doing some illegal thing kah?

 

[tjuantze]

Hehe....I kinda like those at the back if I need to put one. If not, I prefer no antennas at all.
Anyone notice those on the new Hyundai Accent? The short fat black ones. Kinda cool I think. hehe..

 

[tjuantze]

By the way, I finally went to the reputable honda workshop in Penang to ask about the MT GB. Apparently, they just sold one.
Kedai potong will only have parts of TypeZ which are cut from Singapore as there are no similar models in Japan. That's why it's so rare.
And there are difference in VTEC and Non-VTEC gearboxes.
So I ask them to look for one. They did not disclose the price as they said they need to find it first.

 

[tjuantze]

I saw an EK there swapping B16A wit manual GB. I could clearly see the "B16A" on the engine block unlike ours with no proper code to pin point the engine.
They also said that its difficult to do B16 swap for our cars.

And so I thought..... the previous model of Civics run on D17 engines. Same series, different displacement. Why not swap that instead? I am sure it would be way cheaper.. hehe..just a thought.
