Need more power,

[JASON]

I love the size of this little project car of mine. And how unique
it is. I get more attention in this car than I think any other
vehicle on the road. I'm having trouble with it's power. I need
more. As an auto dealer, I get company cars. Just about anything.
The new mini cooper is a great car. It's tight in the turns and has
lots of kick. I want the same kick in my 600! I guess a
civic1200.com
club member from Canada spotted my car at work as he was driving by
and decided to pay me a visit... 10 minutes after I left. From what
I was told, one of them had a burgandy colored Z600 which was
chopped to a convertable, and had a 1200cc turbo which he had
inported from New Zeland. The car from what I was told was a ten. I
would think that I could find a motor
like this here in the states... or somthing else. I want to stay
with a Honda motor. Can I go up to a 1.6? How big? Who in
Portland Oregon can help me with the mechanics??

Well Jason, I'm also thinking about doing a major swap I'm going with
a D16Z6 motor out of a delsol or civic. might be alot of work but I'm
going to be taking auto-tech classes next fall so I'll will being
trying to work something out with my teacher some how. so maybe we
could exchange info on both of are projects and see were it might go.
I've already got my motor just need to rebuild it. it came out of my
delsol that i replaced the motor on. I broke a rod due to low on oil
and racing it doesn't mix to well. But i'm not sure when i'm going to
get started but I have two N600's so I'm going to customize one and
leave the other one totally stock. Well hope to chat with you later
