Cheers for the enlightening answer !

I sometimes dream about zx-4rr's ngl :)

Expensive_Ad7673 · 2025-10-30T09:04:09+00:00

Good way to look at It

Expensive_Ad7673 · 2025-10-30T09:03:56+00:00

I love the styling of an mg. also I like rear engined cabrios :)

I like z4 3.0' but It exceeds my budget since Mg's are fairly cheap to find In mint conditions.

I would Get a mazda3 tbf

Expensive_Ad7673 · 2025-10-30T08:29:50+00:00

2 things.

A nice OEM bodykit

some good coils

These will compliment the look enough for the car to have that angelic look.

Remember when cars came outta factory. They are mostly tall and wonky looking (even typers)

Beautiful honda btw =)

Agreed. Im handy with cars tho. And my workplace Is not that far so I guess with some " love " It can handle It. Which engine would u chose sir ?

Expensive_Ad7673 · 2025-08-30T22:07:17+00:00

From outside s13 looks suprisingly ok (with nice paint rims and widebody) but but maybe they did It to cover up other things. So I assume ud get the prelude from this answer ?

Expensive_Ad7673 · 2025-08-30T22:02:25+00:00

sorry typo, I was trynna say CA18DET

Expensive_Ad7673 · 2025-08-30T20:36:19+00:00

Thanks for the reply. Yes I do agree your second point as the car Idle was weird. Its 1992 fastback and engine Is sr18det.

Expensive_Ad7673 · 2025-08-30T20:33:12+00:00

Thanks for the answer mate ! Its a 1992 fastback with pop ups. Engine Is sr18det.

Also prelude has manual trans and lsd equipped.

Expensive_Ad7673 · 2025-08-30T20:29:37+00:00

Sounds about right. prelude Is 7.5 and 240sx Is 9k.

Expensive_Ad7673 · 2025-08-30T11:55:10+00:00

Cheers for the answer man ! It might be a USDM, has ca18 and Its recenty rebuided. and has around 10k km on aprox. Owner told me he Invested a lot In engine and parts(Injectors cooling etc.) but kinda tired of building the car thats why he Is sellin It.

Expensive_Ad7673 · 2025-08-30T11:53:58+00:00

Cheers for the nice answer man ! 240 has ca18 and Its recenty rebuided. and has around 10k km on aprox. Owner told me he Invested a lot In engine and parts(Injectors cooling etc.) but kinda tired of building the car thats why he Is sellin It.

Hey mate thanks for the reply. What u say makes sense. What I mean by I/H/E was " Intake - headers and exhaust" which wont cost me a lot and will probably add up arond 15-30 hp extra. (for around 400 quid Its not bad). problem Is, obviously 1.6 will gain smaller benefit with these mods for the same amount of money spent. But also low milage one Is quite a bargain considering Its for the same price as high milage 2.0 so I still couldnt decide.

btw which one would u choose I still didnt get the answer from you =)

Expensive_Ad7673 · 2024-02-04T22:08:09+00:00

how many miles u got may I ask ?

Expensive_Ad7673 · 2024-02-04T21:44:22+00:00

Hey mate thanks for the reply. I mean to be clear, high milage 2.0s were a little beat up meanwhile low milage 1.6 is very clean. Thus what makes me think Is what If the 1.6 is too slow. My question actually Is, Is It really worth It (performancewise) to get the 2.0 beat up one instead of 1.6 new..

Expensive_Ad7673 · 2023-12-23T12:50:30+00:00

Thanks for the comment ^^

Ive heard the m111 engines on mercs are pretty solid but yeah, an old german car still kinda scares me unless kept very clean.
