doesnt pplz use search these days.

Hi and welcome...Nice car. If it's know "run of the mill" D16Y" then why don't you look at turboing your current engine instead of an engine conversion?

[[ricer]]

i'll buy ur slow motor for $100

[blabla]

not worth it isnt built for turbo

[NeRV]

who said? stock D16's can run around 200whp with a good tune. F/I this is.

[tRipitaka]

not worth it isnt built for turbo

neither are any other honda engines..
yet people have built proven reliable setups for their cars..

if you want bang for buck, go for a turbo kit..
if not, don't do a b16.. atleast go for b18

Yes and there are many of them running around these days STOCK with a nice turbo setup and the owner's are very happy as you will make a safe 120-140kw at the wheels all day everyday with the correct setup.

i do not like turbos im into naturaly aspired cars. it cost more to turbo it then to do the conversion and the place im getting the conversion done at said its not worth putting a turbo onto a d16y and that i want to put turbo i should get a b16y and turbo it.

[Benson]

how much is the conversion costing you? cant be that much cheaper than going turbo

[blabla]

i have been really considering putting in a jdm b18c but i have been told to go for the b18c. Now this whole conversion is costing me 7600 aus this what i have been quoted. it includes f&r discs, pc motor radiator cv joints evrything can anyone tell me if this is a good deal. i got told by one of my mates that it was a very good price. WHAT DO U THINK?:honda: :thumbsup: :thumbdwn:

[[ricer]]

where abouts are you located
my friend did a b16a into his EG for under 5k drive in drive out. b18c shouldnt be alot more... well not 2600 more anyway.

im in liverpool but i am going to a guy in yenorra they are called good performance. its gonna have the brake system redone gearbox recondidtioned, air con re gassed intergra type r extractors and exhaust. computer radiotor doubble core, gear selector all new water punps heavy duty clutch plus the jdm b18c with low kilometers all for 7600 and the job takes two weeks . now if u can tell me where i can get the same for a better price tell me.

[[ricer]]

pm fatboy

[thebob]

No such thing as a cheap good job mate.

[[ricer]]

if ur getting ripped off it doesnt mean the jobs gonna be good lol

[fatboyz39]

As what Ricer said. Got a b16a conversion for $4500 drive in and out. Or $5k with brake upgrade drive in and out (rear disc, booster/master cylinder). 3-4 day turnover time.

Pm me for more info on what you get.

As for $7600 for a b18c, sorry but thats a rip off. Gearbox needs reconditioning? why does it need to be recond? did previous owner ***ed the gearbox or something? Take all this into consideration when choosing to do conversion.:thumbsup:

[fatboyz39]

err??? i've seen cheap jobs come out good:thumbsup:. Backyard FTW!!!

AHaha.. if u know what you are doing then you can really save alot of money, especially not spending more than 10k for an ITR set-up

7600 is too steep for an normal jdm b18c conversion. Pm fatboyz39, he can set up up for a better deal and set-up.

All those things mentioned are usually included in a conversion. Dont get fool and think all these extra's are a bonus and think you are gettin a good deal, especially a re-conditioned gearbox. Honda g/b are very strong and reliable,they dont break easily compared to other jap g/b. So if its getting reconditioned you gotta question what kind of life it had previously easily the synchro's.

PM me if u need more information before deciding on doing a conversion

[whoosh!]

if u want a turbo set up, give this number a call, it will be cheaper den wat u are getting quoted..........include everything to get ur car running and tuned...
