Default engine swap q

I have a 93 EX auto and Im putting a B18C in it and at the same time Im doing the auto to manual conversion. so far I got the engine and trans($75), short throw shifter($20), shift linkage($90), slave cylinder($50), master cylinder($80), hydraulic lines($30), clutch pedal($50), the wireing harness for the engine($50), and the motor and manual trans mounts($300). Ironic how the mounts cost more than most of the other things together.

I was wondering if you guys could tell me if I was missing something.

thanks in advance!

Ya I would say your missing the entire motor and tranny. You arent going to get a B18C for $75 or even $750 for a complete swap. Oh ya and you need axels for your $75 B18C.

Um, I got my JDM GSR for $3,000.....thats the engine and trans. Then again, MY engine has between 25-40,000 miles on it. Even if the engine cost him $750, its prob got something wrong with it, or insane mileage.

Guys don't be so hostile. I don't know how much mieage or in what conditions the engine is but it can not be that bad since the person I bought it from works at one of the warehouses that sell the JDM engines and front clips. I don't know if the engine is JDM or USDM since I have not talked 2 the person that is selling it to "me" I quote that because the guy thinks the engine is for his cousin who is my girl's father. I don't think it is in bad conditions because they have been doing business for years. The engine is being delivered to me this weekend I'll post pix

Thanks for reminding me of the axels I almost forgot.

ok...
if it's really a B18C it's not a USDM engine.

looking forward to pictures...

If you got a complete GSR swap for $75 then you are a god! I really dont believe you at all. Just sounds too good to be true. Maybe this guy is selling you a DOHC ZC and is telling you its a GSR. Do you know much about Honda's? Dont let this dude rip you off.
