I understand that.. but still leaves you with wanting to swap to manual.. switch you will need a different tranny.. with linkage.. also.. i think there is a different wiring harness on the auto.. so you would have to swap that too.. plus a manual clutch and brake pedal.. running the cutch lines.. plus the clutch master cylinder and reservoir.. plus to interior peices thats small but is needed.. so you will need to add all that in to your math.. and the brakets that hold the pedals, and reservoir.. there is a lot of work and a lot of moeny to put in to it... but running with a frankinstien motor with all the money you put in to it would not be smart.. finding a d16z6 swap would save you time, money, and comes with the tranny that you will need and you can find one around for about 600 to 700.. sorry for being tough on you but if your going to do it.. do it right.. i hope this gives you an idea of what your getting in too.. and i am not telling you no dont do it.. i am saying be smart about it..

 

I definately agree with killa, all of the extras that arent taken into consideration will add up to a pretty penny. We understand that you got all of this stuff for free from your buddy, but you will have so much less head ache with a complete swap, and it being a d series your supplies are limitless for such little money. Either way you go, research, ask tons of questions, and good luck kid.

 

for $500 i am getting a B18 V-tec swap and i am looking in to gettin a EK Coupe probally a Si but i would like to know if $1500 is too much for a 1998 EX coupe with no engine or tranny

 

dude i would kill for a b-18 swap for 500 bux .. but i havent found that deal or anything.... i have a d16z6 with auto tranny and im going thru the same thing you are kid, im getting a swap in the next few weeks.... but kinda easier for me tho, i found a wrecked 95 ex with manual tranny so im ripping out the wirng, ecu pedals and everything that i need to do a swap

 

So your buying either a blown B18C1/ LS-V or a HOT B18C1/ LS-V.. LOL.. wow dont get pulled over... or dont tell people how much you bought it for.. Because.. you buying a hot engine.. i should call the cops now if i knew where you are.. dude my friend got his gsr stolen.. he found it completly stripped.. also another friend with a JDM B18C got stolen.. they took his engine out in the parking lot.. so i hope god has mercy.. becasue charma is a bitch

 

the engine was a swap into a 98 civic 4 door but the car caught on fire so it was taken to the junkyard so i have to rebuild the engine nothing too hard. it should only take me about 2 days or so.

 

Not that I condem it, but I topped my auto 94 ex out at 140 mph. You want more power? Get a turbo

 

i plan on trubocharging the B series engne, i am lookin at he cost of a T3 or a T3/T4 Hybrid turbo and the cost of doing the install and tuning so i can budget

 

i got a b16 block out of my 99 si. it needs rebuilt (oil pump failed which was depressing)

im swapping out the b16a2 for a full GSR swap. thast goin to be my temporary swap till me and my friends either go K-series or build a CRVtec motor for boost around 20-25 psi with darton sleeves andall the fun stuff

there is a few turbo'd b16's here that we're goin out tonight and can get pics and vid if interesed.
im willing to part with my B16 block for the right price to..
PM Me or message me somehow if interested.
