which car is best to buy?

[boosaddict]

hey wuz up everyone i was just wondering which car would be better to buy, a 1994 and up integra gsr or a 1995 and up honda civic si i have around 5000 i could spent on, i am looking for something that i could modify easily so i could beat my friends 1992 prelude (h23 muffler and intake) it runs very good but i dont want a prelude.

for five grand? 5th gen civic hatch (92-95) and swap in b18b nonvtec...but thats my choice....Id say go for the integra cause well i like the looks of the teg better....and the engine better too if youre not into the whole engine swap thing

Even though you didn't mention this as an option, I'd go with a '91 CRX and swap in a B18C1. With bolt-ons, you'd be running high 13's and absolutely destroy your friend's 'lude.

where's a good place to find a b18c1 engine that i could gust drop into the engine bay and how much is the engine

[boosaddict]

isn't that the integra type r engine?

[MexSiR]

No it is not the integra type r engine. The type r engine is b18c5 and that engine runs just beneath 5000 bucks or around that. The b18c1 is the 1.8 140 h.p interga engine, and theres also the gsr one thats 170 h.p.

[PunkAlex]

the 140 version is the b18b nonvtec....the b18c1 is gsr @170hp and b18c5 is type r @195

Check hmotorsonline.com for a complete swap. It'll cost you about $3200. Get a CRX for $1000 and you've got $800 left for an exhaust system and an intake.

buy my car
i have a 94 accord im sellin for for 3900.drop in a h22a and youre set...if u interested email me at [email protected]

isnt accord kinda heavy? it really depends on what your goal is, if you want good highway speed then go with a integra which a really good aero dynamics and already has a good motor, if you want a drag car go with a hatch you can get them fairly cheap and then drop in a b18c1 gsr motor cause the weight is so light you will be flying with just a few bolt-ons. personally i like the teg but thats cause i have one. tegs are a little bit more expensive also. if you are going to go that way get one that has obd1 not 2

neither if you are a boost addict buy a se-r/nx/g20 and BOLT on a t25,ic,walbro fuel pump,370cc injectors,jwt ecu and then go have some fun, and yes i know this is the honda area.
my 2 cents.
