How much are you willing to spend? K series is awesome, but very expensive. Plan on spening 8-10 grand by the time it's all said and done.

I'd stay b-series unless you have the cash for a K.

 

10 grand is too much I think. Here's the engine --> http://www.hmotorsonline.com/shop/sc...age&item=30028

Motor mounts are here --> http://www.hasport.com/Products/Moun...unt%20EKK1.htm

A guy I know will help me do the swap for about 500 bucks and I have the shell, just need like 600 bucks to fix the interior and buy some wheels. If I do all my HW and save up over the summer I should be able to get it all done 'till Fall and use not more than 6 grand. That is if the site with the engine is legit and they will have all the stuff I need. Well, anything that you guys can recommend will help. I will keep the car stashed away for this time being and just work my ass off until I get enough money to fix my car.

 

Good Luck!
and stay low key...
Id get b18c FTW...
check your local honda junk yards you'll be surprised

 

Check out k20a.org. There is more cost involved like edu. Most people are using the hondata K-pro wheich is very expensive. I would be extremely suprised if you were able to do this swap under 8 grand when it is all said and done.

 

Okay, if this is not going to be as easy as I thought it would (money wise) then what type of b18 should I get? GSR or Type R? Which one will produce better results in the long run, after the possible future mods?


P.S. I don't get why I can't use the stock ECU with the k20?

 

get the gsr..
cheaper and easy to find in good condition

 

Sorry for irritating you guys but when the ad says "complete changeover" and has a list of parts included does it include a radiator and ac condenser and you know washer bottle and things like that? The reason I'm asking is that if it usually does not than I'd rather buy a complete clip from Japan and just do "plug 'n' play". I have found a B16B Gen2 with LSD and OBD 2 front clip without any body and interior panels for 3 grand shipped. I think that this might be the best way to go - clip wise and not just so called "complete changover". Anyway, let me know about the first question and thanks again. Just trying to tie some knots here, lost good engine and now need to get it back on the road, where it belongs.

 

no they dont, if i were you id be original and get a b17 cuz no1 has em h:

 

Where is that clip coming from? I've heard about it taking months for certain places to send clips. And then you have to deal with customs if it's coming from Japan. Three grand shipped for a CTR clip sounds way too good to be true. Remember, you get what you pay for.

Many people (including me) have used hmotors with great results. I heard they are also very good about dealing with any problems you should have, but I didn't have any so I don't have firsthand knowledge about that.

 

^ Werd. For all the effort you might as well but a RSX-S swap. Would cost less than the 05 SI your looking at, and 40HP more.

If it was me I would sell my shell, and just get a used RSX-S, or keep it and get a B18C1 to put in it.
