I'm looking for a B16b Spoon Flywheel. I have scoured all of the distributors in the US, Canada, and some in Europe. No on has it in stock, and I don't speak enough Japanese to order it that way. I'm needing this part ASAP. Does anyone have any suggestions.

I've searched the Interwebs for hours upon hours trying to find valve lash specs for the B16b. I've come up with nothing so far. There seem to be several posts on this forum about valve lash, though I have yet to find one that specifies the B16b. I've been trying to figure this out for months...

if people are searching for part numbers, i could use the # for an EK9 fuel pump, and maybe info on how to order said part in the states. If anyone knows of a OEM manufacturer that will ship EK9 parts to the states, let me know, that could be a real help.

I don't know man... Barcelona's a great city, i really enjoyed my time there, but i couldn't drive there. I was almost run over while crossing a street 3 times, the parking in some areas was horrible (4 cars deep in front of some cafes) and i actually witnessed an accident between a Citroen and...

Here's mine! Work in progress.....

OEM replacement is the NGK PFR7G-11. I'm not sure how the price changes worldwide, but in the US they're $11.00 per plug. They make the 16B run great though, so they're worth every penny.

Kansas City's winters really aren't that bad, I come from nothern Iowa, so a few feet of snow is not unusual. The funny thing about KC though is that we never get enough consistent weather for drivers to develop any adverse weather driving skills. I drove pizza delivery for 4 1/2 years, so I can...

You lucky people with your lack of snow and access to real EK9s. I move for lower import taxes!!:D

Yup, EJ6. Every now and then i try to forget that i'll never have a real Type R. I'm working for something as close to an EK9 as I can get in the States. B16B engine and tranny, rear disk (not 5 lug yet), suspension, not quite an EK9, but maybe a close cousin?:nice: Anyway, I love the car, and...

Hand brake drivers REPRESENT! Yeah, around here, snow is a given, but it's really inconsistent. 3 days ago it was 67 degrees and sunny, now were under 2 inches. Then most "fun" thing about Kansas winter is the occasional ice storm, which rolls through and drops 1/2inch of solid ice on...

Just thought I'd share these pics with you all. When I parked my car it was 36 degrees and clear. This is what i found 2 hours later when I was leaving. Sorry for the pic quality, i took them with my phone. Driving in the snow is pretty decent though, that LSD really shines!

Check out this article, Import Tuner really tested the de-cat idea. http://images.magnaflow.com/05news/magazine/pdf/catalytic.pdf

Already got the 2.5 exhaust. If you want to see pics of what i'm working with, check out MySpace.com - BLiNDMaN - 25 - Male - OVERLAND PARK, Kansas - www.myspace.com/blindmanek9. there's some pics on that page

Alright. I've heard that name mentioned a few times. Sounds like a winner. Do you have any reccomendations for fuel pressure regulator, and any other fuel system components? I'm thinking my car deserves a few mods. I think fuel system and head work are on the way.
