Hey Lauren, welcome to OzH. I hope you find what you're looking for but i do recommend you to change the transmission over to man if you're going to chuck a turbo in.

Hey Lauren, welcome to OzH. I hope you find what you're looking for but i do recommend you to change the transmission over to man if you're going to chuck a turbo in.
5-6k? for what? everything you have in mind? or just the engine conversion?
I hope you dont plan on a full leather interior with heaps of tv's in your car... Not a big fan of ricer civics.. The clean cut JDM look is the best :thumbsup:
You can easily pick up a B16A/B18C2 half cut for $3k-$3.5k and then you're looking at $1k MAX for installation...
Goodluck aye, hopefully you'll end up sticking with the civic with a nice new engine :)

whats wrong with leather if it looks nice and have the balls to back it up then step back... i've got three screens being installed, suede black roof, with a massive power plant of a motor, plus jdm parts...
best of both worlds...

i think my driving attitude is great thank you very much. this is the first non-turbo car i've ever owned. i wrote off the skyline coz i wasn't paying attention - not because i was driving like a wank.Quote:
But the greatest mod you can do for your car is improve your driving skills.
An engine swap would be good for an excuse to swap out that slushbox auto.
I just think you should make sure you have your attitude towards driving right before putting too much power through the Civic.
i preffered the r31 to the r33 :) much beeeetttter!!! i loved the boxy shape :)Quote:
