what's the true potential of a JDM B18C Auto ?

[Prolifique]

Hey there I haven't done to much research regarding this subject myself as I have been busy in exams all week however what does this engine have which others don't. I know it has more HP but besides that any other reasons? Thanks and if any of you own such an engine give me any info drect or indirect thanks.

I'm not to sure if I understand your title..but from last i remember..a b18c doesn't come in automatic

yea you can get them in automatic from Japan. the question is why would you want an auto if you also want performance?

[Prolifique]

well you got a point there but yea my question is if someone wants that specefic engine why would they want it, is it performance or is there more than just that to it?

usually they bring them over and sell the engine to people who just want the engine. i personally think it would be a sweet swap though, in some nice sedan or something. power when you need it but a nice daily.

Potential is as far as YOU want to take it. You could buy it, rebuild, bore, turbo... EVERYTHING and even with auto have an amazing machine.

Its all up to how much time, money, and effort you want to exert to get power out of an automatic.

If you dont mind me asking... Why automatic? put the large double double java down and shift :P

Auto's are for Girly Men!.....Unless your hitting 13's or faster in the 1/4 :D....I hate Driving Automatics but i do have respect for a Mustang that will Run 9's....totally irrelevant, but i dont care :D

[CIVIC_MAN]

I like driving auto's but thats when i have a cell phone in one hand and a coffee in the other, automatic imports were never meant to be raced.

ok here is why...http://www.importcentral.ca/community/index.php?showtopic=2081

I bought this ride as of this Tuesday. Thanks for your replies ..well some of em at least, no i can drive manual i use to own a 325 I beamer once by which I loved to shift back and forth however calgary and it's roads just don't fit for rush hour driving a manual. It's personal opinion non the less and i just got back from UOFC god no ones on the streets at 4 am.. go figure.

^ For some reason that car just doesn't look right to me. I just totally hate the way it looks and it doesn't look like if fits right. Nissan front ends should stay on nissans, not put on acura's :dunno:

[asp integra]

i dissagree, i think the nissan fron looks really nice on a teg, the lines are kinda similar to a jdm teg conversion, but the lights on the nissan look really nice! thats a sick car, congrats on the purchase!

[Prolifique]

Merci, I appreciate your comments and yea it's all personal taste some like theirs blonde others like brunettes, but I think it's a beauty.

[trikypenguin]

who in their right mind puts a silvia front end and skyline rear end on an integra......

[Prolifique]

If ya read the list and specs of the vehicle it's a blackwidow rear modification.
