Re: need help building up civic

u've got 6grand to spend on it? swap it out. go with a b-series. b16a or something, then put together a crazy ass turbo kit and you'll still have left over money.

if you want something cheaper, swap in a whole y8, build up the bottom end, put together a turbo and crank up the boost.

basically whatever you do slap a snail on it hahhah best bang for the buck

definitly go for a swap. i personally recomend a b18c1 out of an integra gs-r. make sure you have everything for the swap including the trans, computer, harnesess and etc. a turbo kit would also help that new engine kick up the horsepower some more. another thing is if you get a b-series to swap, you might consider getting a type-r head, cause they come from japan ported and polished and i've seen some on ebay so the're not hard to find.

Swappppp. Youve got 6 grand? Damn, wish I had that kind of money to spend on my car, anyway, yes, the b18c1 is a awesome starting point. Make sure you get obd1 though, or else your swap will be a total pain in the ass, ive got the opposite problem, i need to find a b18c1 that is running obd2, but anyway, b18c1 obd1 is the way to go if you want something fast, and then build internals, or just put the turbo on her.
