New to hondas' all round. need guidance on a b16head + b20 bottom end conversion.

[Vvvtec]

sam, 5-7k is a good price for any build. Thats not over budget. But thats a fully worked b20. put the same money into a b18cr and see the results. Plus type r motors are still pricey, so you could be looking at 4k + just for motor.

Ummm I'm pretty sure what he means is $5-7k for either a built B20v OR Stock B18cR/5/6/7. No need to build the B18c.

yo strangey when i come down sometime this year...ill drive down and we'll go for a cruise or something?
knowing the newy police they'll love my car haha...
you should put your car up on boostcruising aswell...you might get some hits there
but other than that if you choose the honda you will not be dissapointed...well dissapointed till you hit vtec ;p

[jarrod strange]

b20 with b16 top because theres a b20 (non vtec - yes i agree i wouldnt have done a crv conversion < hahahaha) with type r brakes, slotted and drilled rotors, skunk2 intake, magnaflow and straight pipe / canon etc, type R pieces, coilovers, 18 inch wheels n shit for sale and i might scorch for 3 g. so yeh and sam yeh tru gimme a buzz when you are comen down

[integragsi96]

sounds good mate....with hondas 18's looks like 20's on commys lol
but being in newy be careful with the straight pipe...a little risky.
actually there's this for sale on here if your interested already had a b20vtec conversion done.

looks nice but im never guna want a civic. idk the only hatchback car i would touch is either an RS focus or impreza or a VR6 Golf. if you know anyone with a teg or lude' out there makn some nice numbers and is keen on swaps ill consider it.

[jarrod strange]

PS. why cant i put a picture up or anything, it was letting me do it before X@ and i cant post anymore wtf. lol

[integragsi96]

look in the for sale section then mate....someone might be interested.
umm usually with pictures its best to use photo hosting sites like photobucket and etc lol...
aww the eg civic is standard under 1t...its very light but then again personal preference tho.
well if your after a lude only get the vti-r....integra stay away from the gsi (the model i have) as it has no vtec.

[jarrod strange]

yeh gsi's are a nice comfortable car.
great cruiser and all you need to make it competitive is an engine swap and some suspension mods.
my car is just shy of 300XXXkms and im having to replace bushes, cv boots, radiator hoses, lower engine mounts, and other things..but after all that its basically got a new life.
