If you have D-series just turbo them when you get your full license or go B18C

B18c all way ..

easiest thing when comes to compliance would be B16a as it the same Liter Capacity thats if you have the 1.6L engine already..

b16a prob more cheaper for budget if your going to turbo then i dont see why u need a b18c unless u are chasing a specific build.

Mind if i hi jack the thread?
What if you have no intension to turbo?? Will the torque on the b18c be very noticible compared to the b16a??

I say b20 vtec still cheaper that the k24

170 kw and while building it you can set it up to be turbo'd

170kw highly strung b series will get butt rap3d by a 150kw fairly stock k24
even so 170kw b series, you will be spending more than k24 swap easy, stop talking smack

Hi I bought a b18c half cut from all automotive imports at 17 Mile Rocks, I tried Brisbane motor imports too, but all automotive was cheaper. I found it hard to track down a b18c half also. Hope this helps...
