the 13b can be a good motor but you have to mod them to make them stronger and you have to maintain them well.

exsoccerchick. i dont recommend you owning a 7, unless you know how to work on them... they are too much trouble.

as for me, i have an FC with 200k miles on the engine, runs strong but has oil leaks everywhere. it took quite a few new parts to get it reliably running. Ask rotary7, he has my car for quite sometime.
