Ok i have a 00 civic coupe with the D16y8....well it did have that motor. I have taken it out and was lookin to put a B18B into it because i was goin to boost it. but i have decided not to boost and want something alittle better! Now i have about 4 grand to spend on the motor.... but here is were it gets tricky...my car was origanally a automatic...i want to switch it out to a manual of course!! so i have 4 grand to get a ecu, clutch pedal assybley, motor and tranny, and clutch master cylinder and slave cylinder!! any suggestions... could go alittle higher if its worth it!!

B18c1. where are you located? actually, i might be able to hook you up on an ITR swap with pedals and all from the Teg, but itll be a bit more than 4K.

its a good thing you decided not to go with a B16B boosted because a.) that would not be smart because or the already high compression of the motor and b.) because you cant buy a CTR motor for less than $4,000. they usually run about $4,500 you best bet to get the best performance for you money would be to get a b18c1 and go to a junk yard and find a teg that runs and take the master and slave cylinders, pedal and all that good stuff
hehe. umm... b18b, not b16b. and i looked around for that motor from Mr Gasket, and the only version i could find was an NA one. cool, but i saw that article in PS and wanted to see the specs on the FI motor.

correction thats just the motor axles are not included, shift linkage not included, and i think you still have to add shipping on to that.............like i said about $4,500
