yea rice is not my thing. just the camera angles hahahaha.
i hate decals. i hate highway drone. i think over sized rims are too ricey as well. and there not gold they are bronze
i thought they looked really good with the red.

Standart right here is around 95octane, 100+octane is available as well.
That's the reason why J-Spec and E-Spec engines mostly has a bit more power than USDM motors, because both has 100octane and are able to set the ECU, resp. the ignition the an advanced level, and sometimes more compression. |
i am aware of the better fuel over there. i just got back, haha. if we had 100+octane gasoline here regularly i wouldve put a turbo on my car a long time ago.
the b18c1 is the usdm gsr and the b18c5 is the usdm type r. the usdm type r actually has the same compression as the jdm and edm gsr or sir-g.
thats why foreign motors are of higher demand in the states. they almost always net an extra 5-10whp. :drool:
