Bisimoto's Turbo build: Quest for 700whp D16Z WagoVan

[deevergote]

I prefer Super Street anyway... I'll have to renew my subscription!

[Bisimoto]

Yes, do it D!

[JPsAccordSE]

Dunno if you made a wheel choice yet, but may I suggest some Mugen M7's... I absolutely love these wheels on this era CRXs and Civics.



*drools*

Dunno if they are period correct like you want, though.

700hp out of a 1.6L!

Freaking crazy awesome man!

I hope someday to make enough money to have you do motor work for me.

[Bisimoto]

JP, I have the wheels already for the Bisimoto WagoVan, and they are super rare!

EJX, I am not THAT expensive..lol

Set them straight 'Bisi.

I can't believe such ignorant statements were made, it only shows their lack of engine knowledge to think that NA principles are not related. Wow, simply stunning.

I would feel confident in them working on a potential turbo car.

Throw a baby seat in the back to make it even more absurd.

Just let that car do the talking next time someone questions your building skills on turbo set ups.

Bisi... you honestly do some of the best and most creative work on these cars that I have ever seen. The honda car scene wouldn't be the same had you never come along. Hopefully, in the near future, my f22a4 will be sporting some Bisimoto parts.

I would love to work in your shop... need some help turning wrenches or anything?

Well. Good luck with the build. I doubt you will need it though. That motor looks so amazing.

HOLY SHIT BALLS BISI!!!!! thata one nasty ass motor. cant wait to see the finished product. keep up that great work

[92cord]

This is definitely gonna be one bad ass build. I'll be sure to keep tabs on this!

BTW Bisi, if you ever need to test some stuff out with the k-series (I have a k20a2 in my da) hit me up!

[steelbluesleepR]

much respect bisi. i dont particularly like civics jsut because they are so damn common, but i have a soft spot for the wagovan. now to see one that will have 700 hp and a nearly stock interior is rediculous (in a good way)! as an engineering student, i have always respected your use of fluid dynamics and such techniques as apposed to the typical "well, my last header looked like this and it made decent power" attitude. keep up the good work man, and i cant wait for the videos!


btw, i will be coming to you for some cams, header, and a few other things for my h22 swap next summer when i (hopefully) get a sutdent co-op with GM or other company due to my work with my university's hydrogen fuel cell car!

Rare is an understatement to say the least. These wheels are so old I would be willing to bet that some people wont even know what they are. They look very nice on the car too. Fitting. They also look as if they spent the last 20 years in their boxes. Flawless!

I wish I was coming down there this weekend to go for a ride in the beast. I mean that is if it ready....

I can't wait to see what wheels you have picked out! I'm slowly (VERY slowly) collecting parts to restore and mildly modify my 86 Accord hatchback, and I'm still trying to figure out what wheels I really want to get! I've been really interested in old style wheels.

And yeah, you're really not all that expensive. Your prices are at most on par with other quality shops, from what I've seen. In some cases, they're even lower. Of course, most CB7tuners don't have a whole lot of money to spend, so even a relatively inexpensive quality build is going to take some saving! I think people are finally beginning to realize the value of a proper setup, though.

Set them straight 'Bisi.

I can't believe such ignorant statements were made, it only shows their lack of engine knowledge to think that NA principles are not related. Wow, simply stunning.

They're just jealous. Didn't someone suggest a while back that Bisi only ran a carb'd motor because he didn't know fuel injection? Yeah, well... we see how true that idiotic assumption ended up being!


Bisi, you're all about the underdog, which is what I love so much about your builds. You know what works, and you don't simply follow a trend. You don't have a crazy Integra Type R with a K20 Type R swap in it... You don't have an LS/VTEC EG hatch boosted to un-streetable levels. Though I have no doubt you would make an impressive car out of either of them.
You have an NA Insight running an Accord motor, that breaks world records... and now a boosted Wagovan that'll get the groceries home quite quickly!




I think you need a V6 project... a J32 in a CB chassis

And I volunteer my CB7 as the respectful recipient!

Dang, oh well. I was hoping that the new Super Street mag would come out, and it would be in there with some M7s, so I could go around saying I chose the wheels, lol.

Can't wait to see what you picked out, though.

By the way, any updates?

True! but like deev said, I don't have that lind of money right now.
