i have 4500 dollars now... i dont know how much shippin will be...anyone have an estimate...ill prolly need to save up 500 more bucks...

do u think this is a good idea.







can anyone send mea link to a site or somewhere if u know that tells you or helps you to know how to swap in a k20 into a 92-95 civic.
like snoopy said earlier a k20 is going to cost you around $8k to 10k that just to put it in with NO mods! with that $4500. to $6500. you can buy, build, and turbo the b18c1 and be running some where between 400hp to 500hp if not more and keep it reliable. you also have to remember it's aslo about power to weight ratio you may come up against a car with similar HP but you could win be cause you car is a few hundred pounds lighter!!

look you don't have go buy all these expensive upgrades for your brakes..just upgrade everthing from a gsr. everthing is compatible and easy! change the drums for discs.. price range is about $200-$400...

Her's another suggestion since H22 is mentioned. It'll be cheaper than a K & you can also have LSD stock. You can go w/ a JDM B18 C-R(Integra Type R) motor. That's 200 hp in a 1.8. You also would have LSD trction/handling & won't weigh as much as a H22. I hear alot of suspension problems w/ a H22. You can do headers,intake & a exhaust & run 14's easy depending on your driving . They are a little pricey but much cheaper than the K. Personally I'd go like the:B18C1-GSR,B18c-R, H22, K2o( only because cost the most. Good luck with what you choose.

Im wanting to do a B18C in like a 92 hatch, will those cars with weight reduction still not be in the 13's? Bc im used to my LS1 trans am that ran 8.74 bone stock in the 1/8? and i was wanting this car as a fun DD that still gets good gas mileage.

a b18c1 in a hatch with weight reduction and bolt on's should be a low 14, high 13 car with a good driver

Oh ok then, thats cool in other words it will run with an LT1 Trans am.. Well im hoping to stay under 3000 for everything bc i can get almost everything pretty cheap lol. Like the body ill prob get for $200 and then the rest will be for the motor. Hopefully i can get the motor pretty cheap.
