****, ls/vetc is kinda sketchy...just drop in a b16a Sir II...vtec is wicked and it'll move....or a b18c.

I used to have a 94 dx with a b16a SiR II...was fun
now i have a 92 hatch with a b18c.....very fun....well worth the save!

Yeah, thanks thats exactily what I needed.!

I have 2G saved up and went to the local import yard yesterday, and they had a 30k mile, B18, with everything, tranny, wires, computer, everything... But they wanted 3 grand for it...? Is that a good deal? I was planing on geting just the motor, and machine it and rebuild it, and while I do that search for good deals on the harness, computer and all the other small stuff....

I thought 3 grand might be a little to much, so I also needed a piece of dash trim (the one that goes around the heater controls-radio-and to the other side of the steering wheel where it holds more switches, (grey in color), I looked at them online (brand new) and they were 55$, I went to the delarship and they were 65$, I went on ebay 35$, and I went to the wrecking yard I seen the B18 at ($75.00), I figure the place is trying to rip people off. So I wanted everyones opinion on the B18 with everything for $3000.00?????????

a B18?? what? makes a huge difference.
B18B not worth it, B18C1 with everything it might be worth $3k.

It was a B18B, not a C1.... Thats why I thought it would be a rip off...

Yea, I am leaning towards the H series now, I want a motor I can leave stock and still have the 200 HP I want.
