d series are cheap, and once built they can handle like 300-350whp, so why the heck even bother swapping motors if you can just build up a d series a little

unless you want to be a n/a monster, then go h22 all the way, i kinda wish i went that route after i did it all, a built n/a h22 would be a FUN street car... and it would haul ass

yea...they do but its a real tight squeeze so maintenance kinda sux.

but any whoo...*UPDATES*

got my racing harness in...for those of you that said "if you get in a wreck, you could suffer from spinal compression and be seriously hurt in a wreck" no..im shorter than the back of the seat so the seat back takes all the "compression" but thanks for looking out

Also, i just put in an MSD ignition...for those of you that the "modified cap/rotor/coil kit" is compatible with stock wires...WRONG thats what the jegs guy told me (he has had 3 real nice civics by the way) cuz he had to order my msd wires ( i get them tomorrow) but no, the stock ones plug "in" to the cap, the new cap uses plug "on" style. so im throwing CEL's and im hoping its just cuz the connection sux on the wires...but idk.

Also, got my engine stand and im starting to throw some money at that too. hopefully this weekend this kid brings his $300 so i can take it from him and buy pistons and a main bearing.
