NOS kit?! In my common sense, He blew engine with NOS. he swapped other engine and then gave up. he resell his car.
 
whew. last thing is get a new front bumper so i can do it. thats all for now. its time to go to oregon on road trip due feb whooo
 
That is D16Y8 (my car's engine) I took this picture. You can compare it to your D16Y7, you can notice a bit of difference between those two.

Ouch, needs body work. You can probably go to a pull a part junkyard to get parts and get over it. Hope they have the same color. It's cheaper than buying new.

I tell you that any Honda engines (Not to the motorcycles) never have broken crankshafts and connecting rod throw outs. Only to the valve trains where the wannabe racers abuse the engines....Over-revving, once the valves drop or hit the pistons then damage to the pistons, cyl heads and bent rods. (bent rods in Hondas is very rare).
My bet is your OEM engine was overheated.

Most newer engines are non interference and that's mean the valve can't touch the piston even bad timing belt.
 
ok got my car back from the shop today. driving it feeling like its new car! everything is in a best condition!! i'm so happy.
 
I wouldn't put KN on anything. What if you didn't oil enough and dust end go inside engine.

It cheaper go with OEM filter.

Almost all newer engines have chain timings means no engine interference. You lucky lucky lucky... if you neglect to check oil level in the engine then drive it on high speed on the freeway.. the engine will be interference due to no oil pressure to the hydraulic chain tensioners or variable valve timing solenoids. Not for all the chain driven engines. Check oil levels before you hit the high speed freeways. I love the bend valves...

Any time you inject nitro into the Honda engine, the engine need to be upgrade (blueprinted engine). Inject nitro into the aging engine, then easy to blow up the head gasket in 1 minute
