Hey guys I sourced out a b18c vtir motor with approx 103kms I can have that with a b16a gearbox and wiring loom with ecu for $2000 is that a good deal?

Where have you found it? is it a half cut? pretty damn good deal, youve got all you want for only 2k

You pay for what you get, thats all im going to say.

Good luck.

true that... and B20vtec and B19c7 cost nothing anywhere near B16a....and if you are going to go B18c7, go B18CR....

[jeremydawg]

if you are going to go B18c7, go B18CR....

agreed, exactly what i said the last page

[Lerlo]

Just go b18cr man......

Take either a C7 or CR if you find one. Lol at ppl picking one ova the other.. Same engine

Agreed, I don't really see the big deal...

this isnt entirely tru CR has more kW

B18c7 140 kW; 187 hp) @ 8200 rpm
B18CR 156.6 ; @ 8000 rpm & 17.5 kg·m (172 N·m; 127 ft·lbf) @ 7500rpm (96 spec) 18.5 kg·m (181 N·m) @ 6200 rpm (98 spec)

starting with an extra 16kW is alot...if they cost the same I know which one id choose!

[BuiEG]

It's not a front cut..complete engine it self with no loom, no ecu and gbox for$1200 its a b18c2 off a 96 tetra vtir...so I asked how much for a b16a gbox, engine loom, and ecu...they told me they can do it for $2000 all up..they have a good rep for being top blokes..either way it's probably all I need to get the engine running but I need other stuff to aye I.e mounts shift links etc p.s would I need to upgrade brakes and suspension or is that optional

OP are you planning to build internals in this engine? If you are then it doesnt matter which B18 you choose, as there isnt any structural advantages from one to the other, just the internals.
