you could always seek out a machining company that can do mild machining on your head and maybe p&p on it. 3gmodifier said that he got his done for 60 bucks or so here in the us. and his car sounds way different and it looks like it pulls harder afterwards. so you can look into that if you dont want to spend the money for the gude package. unless you want something wild. you'd probably end up spending less than 1500...like way less if you source out another company that will do it for ya
I think i found the power limit to my auto tranny because it doesn't work so well anymore, it slips and it is hard to get it to shift right. I just got another muffler to replace the pacesetter one, hopefully I can put in on by next weekend. I think my next move will be to get a junkyard motor to start rebuilding and 5-speed tranny. Plus im waiting on the cam gear from Johnny O.

well rjudgey said that the gude package is barely ported, just to make it look nice, so i dont think its wild
I will be selling my 5 speed tranny after my B20a swap is complete.
Just an update. Well im going to the junkyard to get a 5-speed tranny today and hopefully put it in next weekend. I got the cam gear from johnnyO and its awsome, i will have to put it on when i do some more engine work. While im doing the transmission im goung to put in some new parts like a new axel, koyo radiator, new muffler to replace the paceshitter one, completely take out the AC compressor and bracket and maybe a new alternator and to relocate the battery to the trunk. Im also trying to get the new head and b18a1 IM from adams86lxi and the window visors from fyredaug (hopefully i get all that stuff).
pics pics pics!!!!!!!!
As sonn as i get all the parts ill put them in a pile and take a pic, its should be in the next day or so, it all depends on how long it takes for parts to get here.
nice!
Well i just found out i am getting the window visors and i forgot to mention that i ordered a jdm map light http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/JDM-H...05475484QQrdZ1 .
looks like the piece surrounding the lights themselves might need to get repainted. it is supposed to be black right? anyway good deal on the light man. oh and i guess im going to have to fight with you on that head because i pm'ed adam a day ago lol. i hope you didnt low ball him
Well i got some money set aside to do the engine so it will be a battle, lol.
i put in my cam gear in and it runs like poo poo...i have no low end torque but then it jumps up hella fast. i dont want to bent or burn a valve...how can i adjusted with no timing light...aww should of left it stock

LOL, if you dont know then maybe you moved it too much. try setting it back a little.
Another update. I just finished my 5-speed swap, put in my koyo radiator, took out the rest of the AC stuff. Im going to put on a less restriceive muffler soon. My head and integra intake manifold just came in from adam. And my buddy is working on something with the ecu, im not sure exactly what hes doing.
I just got some pics, they are on the third page of my cardomain at the bottom. It shows the koyo radiator, interior and engine.
I just got the JDM map light in the mail and it looks brand new. I will post pics ASAP.
I just got all new motor mounts, brake pads, rotors and drums. Im hoping to put them on on sunday and order some shift bushings. After thats done im going to get it dynoed.
are you gonna do a before and after cam like you said you were???
so basically you have all bolt ons right?? what are you expecting to see?
Yea, im going to do the the stock, then advanced, then retarded. Heres map light pics. I think someone said it doesnt fit with the sunroof, but it does.
