[CRX-Crooks]

[jeef]

is it just me or does that price seem kinda high for a stock, non-rebuilt, used d16a6??? 600 bucks??? you can get y8s cheaper...

[icE_x]

600 isnt much when discount auto charges 2500 for the same thing..lol

but finding one at a junkyard or from a parts car would be nicer

[CRX-Crooks]

how much is complete b series setup motor tranny coversions mounts etc?

[TheSilentChamber]

theres a complete d16 z6 on ebay for 99 cents right now, have to pick it up in socal though.

[CRX-Crooks]

Im building a frankenstien engine. My friend is elling me a ls long block for 100 buks and a b16 head for 100 buks.

[bambam89lx]

i can build a mini me for 400 bucks...lol
$600 is WAY TOO MUCH for a dseries except for a Y8...
maybe $500 for a Z6

I have a D16 put on mine, and total cost was around 1000.00. Including the labor and conversion, the only bad thing is that I still have the stock computer, so no V-tec. The only mod is the exhaust and a AEM CAI. The car felt like it gained a lot of power, plus you also should remember that the B series motor is much heavier than a D series, so the weight distribution on the car will be off more drasticly than a D series, which you'll feel when making a turn and driving a high (over 100) speeds.

Another thing that made me go to a D series was cost, remember, you are going to pay around 300-500 just for the motor mounts on a B series.

[CRX-Crooks]

D series are nice,light,cheap,smog easy, and is reliable. It just doesnt have enough power im getting a b16 in 4 months. Its gonna cost 3gs.

dude go B, you'll be a lot happier w/it, it has a lot more potential if your just going to daily drive it. check out an LS motor, they're a couple hundred cheaper than a B16, and more torque, I have an LS in my hatch and I beat up on B16 CRX's all day. B16 motor/tranny/ecu=1400 Mounts cable tranny=400 mounts hydro tranny=600 shift linkage=220 axles= 120 at pep boys w/a lifetime warranty labor=600-900
