thanks for the feedback, the car has been in two magazines and sports a B18c5 that puts out 168 whp, it could probably do better with some tuning.

That's a good point.... I've never seen a VTEC conversion where they didn't replace the entire engine and front suspension sub-assembly with something modern (necessatating a switch to a fiberglass bonnet/wings front end). I wonder how this car compares to one with modern springs, handling-wise?

Imago, the car has double front springs with rubber cones at the rear with a fully adjustable suspension all around. It handles great.
