Default Hondas
Well since no one has started to really say anything in this section, I might as well throw down some good information about a nice upgrade for honda engines.

If you are going to work on an integra or some other honda with a b-series engine, it would be a good idea to check this out if you decide to run with high boost. Stock honda engine blocks, are extremely sweet and easily upgraded, but, if you are going for a high boost, high horsepower application like a drag car, I would recommend getting a dart block for your honda... these things are awesome. They increase the strenght, cooling, and many other features that help with high horsepower/boost used in drag strip applications, and they aren't really that expensive either. Well enough bullshit, heres a site:

if you have any questions, just drop them here, I'll do my best to give you some info about it.

I'm still making sure I'm not seeing things. You're posting Honda mods on an RX7 website? Blasphemy!

Nah, I don't own a honda at the moment, I had one, but I rolled it six times on a back road.... pssht. Right now I have a '90 Mazda Rx-7 Turbo II, I've always wanted one, recking a honda just gave me the insurance money to do it.

My rx-7 is in pretty good condition, engine has just been rebuilt, only has 30k on it. The paint is faded, but orginal, I'm going to be adding a body kit (demon) and repainting it soon, probably going to drop a grand or so into the suspension aswell.

Right now there is nothing special under the hood, I haven't put any money into it because I'm looking to do up my suspension first.. I have a paticular order I like to follow when hooking up a car. It goes like: Suspension, Cooling, high horsepower application. But with the over all condition the car is in, it wasn't a bad deal for $2,500, considering the guy was the orginal owner and all.

Oh yeah, and I'm painting it Blue with silver metal flake in it... give it that sparkle.. to go with whatever white rims I decide to put on it. I'll put some pics on here of my car before and after I start doing major work to it.
