You could do lightweight pulleys, LiFePo battery, lightweight flywheel, driveshaft, pull the spare and tools, "rear seat" delete...That'd drop in the neighborhood of 100 lbs and have near zero effect on daily drivability (depending on how light you go in the flywheel department will have the greatest effect here).

It would be great if this motor came in more cars in n/a form. I had a 1990 integra with the b18. honda must have made a million b18's over its life span and there ended up being all kinds of cams and intake manifold setups if you wanted to go n/a and it was affordable stuff.

I'd say he bought the wrong car for flat straight texas. This car is very specific to certain terrain. Give me one reason to buy this car over a 'stang in flat country? There ain't one. Where I live there are hairpin turns every 100 yards but if I lived in west texas I' be driving American muscle.

After owning American muscle for years I decided to try the import scene. Have you ever beat American muscle with a 4cyl ride??? I'm sure it will be rewarding lol Point being I wanted a change. v8s are ez to go fast with and the challenge of creating a import to compete will be a fun journey... |
