B18C-R motor

Hello, I was wondering if anyone has ever swapped a B18C-R motor into a 2000 Honda Civic EX??

Also, I was wondering if any of you guys would think its worth the extra $3000 to put in a B18C-R motor over a H22A motor?? please let me know...

are u speakin of the JDM ITR engine or the USDM ITR???



the ITR is cheaper to have swapped than the H22. The ITR is almost a straight drop in versus the H22 which needs custom axles, shift linkage, mounts, etc. I personally think the ITR is a better deal if your just lookin for street applications. but for all out race I'd go with the H22

All I am looking for is a motor that I can use to run quick quarter mile times and have the car still looking good... Im not going to want to race it a lot, basically it will be a show car, that has nice interior, exterior, and engine...

But would I need to change anything to put the B18C-R motor in the 2000 civic EX???

another thing, should i get the JDM version or the USDM version??? which would be best??? The JDM has more hp and torque, and theyre both the same price...

i'd go with the JDM engine. you'll run some good numbers, nice for a street car. i;m almost positive it is a straight drop in.may need like new shift linkage.
