need opinions
ok so as most of you know i sold my b16 to get some extra cash to fix my car(got stolen) and im almost done with the body work and im ready for motor work. i got about 1k left and i need to do sumthin because my engine is not doing well, i think my rings are bad because i get no compression and smoke out the tailpipe, its leaking oil(i think its my v/c gasket) and a few other things. not to mention i got the 4 speed manual transmission. any suggestions on either fixing this old d15b1 or getting a new motor and tranny?

RE: need opinions
call around, you can pickup a complete y8 or z6 for less than $1k with tranny & ecu
you'll need some other parts to make the swap (probably new clutch master & slave cylinders), but everything else will bolt right up for the most part
