What?s the average price for vtec engines any model will do? Just wanted to know how much it might cost if I was to do a conversion from a d15b4 carby?

[waymad]

i got my d15b vtec motor for 450 it had 155000 and sevivced every 7000km if u want to do it cheap like i did u just have to wait, on here on ozhonda every now and than u will find one for sale u can pay up to 1000 at a wreakers.
i also had to buy a fuel pump at wreakers 80 and little things like oil and stuff but the whole engine swap cost me 1000 including oil which i got honda oil can go into detail of what i did but just pm me

[egSi]

man im real interested in your project, got an pics??

mad props for doin teh swap man, d15s own! :D

[waymad]

i have compelted the conversion it was easy not to much problems but there still coulpe things i have to do but it runs so much better than carby engine well worth the money if on budget

i've got a CRX 1.5x with Dual carb. Some time back I asked a few shops around Perth about switching to EFI with a SOHC 1.6 vtec (180k off a mate for $500) they talked me out of it based on its complication and cost (about 3k). So good on ya for doing the swap!

[waymad]

the whole converssion cost me 1000 dollars. the engine bolt straight in the big jobs were wiring it up as i did not have a loom but i had the connection to each sensor so mate and i wired each wire sepeartly and the external fuel pump on carby tank works fine but any thing under 1/4 tank it runs the pump dry when going around cornors today i got a fuel tank off 88 model crx for free which is different than my tank so i dont think thats going to work. the car pulls heps harder i think that anyone could do this swap as long as u know info on wiring electrical things to cars for example if u can wire cd player, alarm, amps basicly any thing electrical to a car u would have the skills to put it in. The engine swap i start on friday afternoon at 12 and finished on sunday at 8pm with about 14 hours sleep for the weekend also we had carton of jim bean for the weekend
