Torn

Hey i bet you heard me talking about getting a d16z6 in my 1991 civic 4dr. Anyways after talking to people wiht different honda engines i am torn between selling my 4th gen 4dr for a 1991 civic HB and then swap in a gsr engine and mod that out for a fisrt project OR keep the sedan and drop in a d16z6 and mod taht thing out. In the end i figure i would be happier wiht the gsr but then agian its cheaper to just get the d16..........Anyways if you guys could provide any input on what i should do that would be a big help. Thx LATE!!!!!!

LOL!~ No contest dude! The hatchie would rip the ball's off your 4 door...:devil:

yea it would, but its one of those personal preferences things, depends if you like your sedan, or if you like a hatch more.

represent the hard core 4g4d crew with melt man.

Ever thought of swapping the gsr into your sedan? Why not just save some money by not selling the 4dr and swap the gsr engine into the 4dr. I say keep the 4dr and swap the 1.8 into it.:)

yeah i say go with the gsr powered sedan...if not....then the hatch

GSR 4-door would be sweet...

like others said, it depends on what you prefer to drive around in...

I agree with the wise man ... GSR powered 4 door would be badass!!

Go with the hatch they look a lot better, no efence melt or anyone else with a 4d just don't like them. But not that many people have them so you can pimp it out and have the only one. Everyone has the rex and the hb not many have the 4d well not around the Chicago area at lest.

Yeah, dude, get the GS-R and put it in the 4 door. OMG, you would have one hell of a sleeper. That GS-R motor will ride out in your 4 door. I would do that if I were you. Do it... it is called peer pressure. :thumbup:

well i went to go to www.hondaswap.com like any good man should i looked if i could be done. well i didnt see the b18c as being swaped into a 4th gen. i just want to know if all i would have to do is motor mounts, tranny, and shift linkage. And of course i would need the motor,ecu, and wiring harness. Then switch the car over to MPFI and stuff like that so if anyone would tell me what exactly what i would have to that would be awsome thx LATE

Go with the hatch. Its lighter!

Hahaha ... I wonder what the LX weighs in relation to the SI ... cause I know the LX weighs more than the DX

that is true dx sedan wieghs less than a 91 si hatch:flipa: :flipa:
drop the 1.8 in the sedan dude. you will be happy:D

you can't compare different trim levels, if you are gonna compare, compare dx to dx, not dx to si :flipa::D

Sedan



1991 Honda Civic DX SDN MT- 2262
1991 Honda Civic LX SDN MT -2322
1991 Honda Civic EX SDN MT- 2374





Hatchie

Theres not much difference between the dx sedan and the si hatchie.:D

My vote isn't listed, keep the 4d and put the GSR motor in it. Good luck either way.

Yea ... I didnt vote either cause my vote is for the GSR powered 4 door.

go with the hatchie.......

i still think the sedan is hardcore since EVERYONE has a hatch or a CRX ... might as well be diffrent. and you can strip the hell outa the sedan to almost match the weight of a hatch.

so yea GSR your sedan dude. no reason to sell a car when its perfectly fine i might add. unless you have a stupid buyer who is gonna pay some rediculous amout for the sedan.
