eh not a huge fan of the spoiler but its not terrible either id build the d but thats just because for some weird reason i like the d series

 

Do u have to D16y7 motor? If so maybe u could do a mild turbo on it...but if ur wanting to go ***** out with a turbo set up go with a B series...idr if u wanted to do a turbo set up or not so sorry if u didnt. But id go with the D series just cause most people do the B swap. just my opinion

 

Nike: oh ya i know i plan on dropping it, it needs it bad O.o

Kanarrjl: Well the trouble is... She's toast, the heads in rough shape, and the rings are gone in #2 and #3 Cylinders, plus the tranny is hurting as well...

Kenny-g: And yes i do have the D16y7, but like i said to Kanarrjl, she's pretty much toast, i can fix it... but its not really worth it... but chances are down the road here i will be turbo'ing the B16 i want to get.

 

Ah i looked back and i guess i missed that part the first time i read through this haha well then get that B16 if u can haha no sense f@ckin around with ur blown D16y7 if its just gonna get swapped out eventually anyway and u got any new wheels in mind?

 

You should just drop in a B18c GSR, be faster than the B16, just costs a little bit more, but not much at all, and I'd personaly feel better about boosting it than a b16. Or you could just swap an ls and boost it, with the money you'd be saving you could do it all at once. Ls can take a lot of boost on stock internals, and you can go lsv eventually which is amazing, awesome torque and power.

 

Kenny-g: Ha ha thats alright XD im not sure... but i did find a set I would like to hear more about, I like these... --> http://www.procivic.com/pages-produc...610/index.html <--- BUT they are not cheap O.o ....At all.... but they are VERY nice, and it would be totally worth it.

Scott53092: Well, Granted the B18 does produce more power, but its rod-stroke ratio is not as... Perfect as the B16.... And right now to get the engine is important, and I dont have much time to save up enough money to do this before i go on a very long drive....

 

If you like the d series, you could always do a head swap from a d16y8, and turbo that on down the road. you could prolly get the head swap for about 200. It would be easy, would give you 30 hp and vtec.

 

^ Good point and thatd prolly be cheapest fix right? Oh and Largen those wheels would be BA on ur blue civic lmao go for it! Theyre pricey but wayyy worth it.

 

MaximusFunk: well actually i have been seriously thinking about saving the D... I figure, its going to cost about $3200 when my swap is all said and done... so if i were to build this one up, even with a budget of $2000 for the engine, i should be able to pull 50Hp out of it withought even a turbo.. but all in preparation for one... so... i have been thinking i might do that....

With these engines, do i need to pull the... er..... something... out of the block to allow the Vtech to work if i were to do a mini-me? (i know you do with the D15B7 so ya...)

Kenny-g: i know eh! i want them so bad......

 

Haha typical Canadian lingo lmao jk jk i used to live in Minot, North Dakota (USA) u prolly heard of that place before cause they have the Houst Fest there (prolly spelled that horribly wrong) but anyway yah so ive heard that "eh" sooo fcking much up there lmao "oh so were gonna go get the groceries now, eh?" "hey u got ur car in the car show, eh?" "so u got the w**d, eh?" stuff like that EVERY DAMN DAY! hahaha anyway back on topic...i say go for that D16y8 swap thatd be a sweet setup even before a turbo kit...id do that.
