Re: Please help with my civic

Well if your going to have a shop do it, expect to pay around 1000 for another stock simple d series. Maybe Ami the shop owner can chime on. Basically any d series engine (d16a6, d15b1/2 etc etc) will bolt right into your car. But to be a simple swap your looking for a d15b2 or b1. With some wiring you'll be able ot run many different engines like the d16a6, or even convert to OBD-1 and run things like d16z6 or d16y8. If your looking at going to a b series engine then your going to need things like engine mounts and shift linkages..axles, a little more wiring and some other parts. Its going to cost more. the 1.7 liter you mentioned is the b17a. And will be hard to find, it only came in the 92-93 integra gsr. Your going to have a much easier time getting a hold of a b16a, or a b18a or b18b. You can do your own searching for how to get these and there are literally HUNDREDS of swap guides that will help you choose, and even do the swap.

I was feeling in a giving mood tonight :P And you asked nicely.
