I know you're a huge B18C1 lover but I honestly think you should consider going K24. Want torque? There you go. I've read if you upgrade the rods/rod bolts and valvetrain, you can rev those things to 9-10k all day. And as far as I know, K24's can be had for dirt cheap.

I'm sure. They are coming down in price. I'm just not all that interested in them. Maybe because I just don't know as much about them as I do B series.

K series are cool and everything, but like I said I'm way more familiar with b series. I personally feel that k series are jot worth all the work needed. Stock for stock yes, they're great. But I would want to build it, and their transmissions can't hold a built motor like a b series transmission can. I don't feel like putting forth that work. And like I've said before, I'm not out for numbers. I'm out for feel. And I've driven ks, they're fun but to me there's nothing like a built b series.

Yes there is....a K with cams and bolt ons :cool:

I just wanna see you build one! You with a k car is much better than Morgan Jade shelling out cash to have a car built for her.

LOL definitely not. Some chick who bought a ek9 and paid tons of money to skunk2 to drop a k20 in the hatch...ran at a few track events, got a magazine feature, and thinks her hatch is worth $30,000. Nobody really, but if I see a chick claiming to be awesome, she should actually be awesome. Not chubby and big headed lol

Well that's cool and all, but almost every female has their car built for them. s**t, most guys have their cars built for them nowadays. Its whatever. I actually build my car for me and what I want, and not to please anyone else. So why should I build a k for myself?

So you would legitimately take a B over a K if either were offered to you with everything necessary for a full swap. I mean I love my GSR swap and I've learned most of what I know rebuilding and modifying this engine from the oil pan up, but if someone offered me a K swap with a rebuild kit today and all I gotta do is give them my B after I swap the K20a in I would jump on that s**t lol. Just an honest question, on the real I'm with you that building a B is more fun mainly because it's cheaper and easier from what I've seen.
