Default B16A2 - tough decision

hey all you guys, haven't been on these boards for months
good to see every1's cars getting alot faster and nicer, and westcoaststyle's car seems to be gaining more horsepower everyday

nothing much new w/ my car if you can recall it, got a weapon-r recaro SRD style seat from work tho , i almost traded for a '97 GST but didn't wanna risk the crankwalk

now i don't need a car and i need money for college, so i've been trying to sell my car for $7800 but have had no such luck, probably due to 101k miles on my odometer. i have the opportunity to get an Si motor w/ 30k (legit) in my car for $2000 and i have hookups to possibly get shot in TPR magazine if i do do the swap. so, economically speaking, could i sell my car for at least $2000 more if i swapped a B16 in it? playing around w/ a DOHC would be nice for a change as well until i sell it

don't you need a car to get to college? :dunno:

I don't know what you have done to your car, but $9800 for a civic just seems like a lot, even with a b16a2..

I would get the b16a2 anyways, then keep the car..

Yeah, I don't assume you will get that much for the car then, maybe a grand or so above KBB, but really, you never get back what you put into the car.
