[NA-tuned]

Hi Peeps,


Just bought a stocko 89 ed civic hatch, just wandering if any one knows how much it cost to convert to one either a B18c5 or a K20a (both ITR)?

Has anyone done this before or know of anyone who has, tips on do's & don't's would muchly appreciated.

And also which one should i go for?

Thanks in advance.

Plus I'm is Brissie

Cheers.

I've just done some searching and found this on a previous qld cruise.

just wandering if anyone knows the owner of this beast?

welcome mate....if u got a spare briefcase full of cash i'd go with the k20 ftw !! It all depends on how much u got to spend really ? Also how much u love your car and willing to spend on it just to make it unique ?

[quangsta]

the car belongs to GnJracing....and its damn quick...

k20a requires alot of money....
b18cr still requires money just not as much

also b18c is alot cheaper to work with and alot less hassle...easier to source and parts are readily available

im doing the same thing mate, i got a quote for a b18 halfcut installed, to cost about 9k...
im pretty sure the kseries would be more dearer...

[NA-tuned]

damn, 9k! is that b18c5 or c7? and where from?

To get someone else to put a B18CR in a carby ED properly with decent mounts & do a major service on the engine as well while its out,your gonna be waving good buy to $12G+.

To do it for $9G,theres gonna be a lot of corners cut somewhere & prob cost a lot more further down the line with repairs,your choice.

LOL.. 9k wholey crap

as everyone has said.. how much money do u have and how much u willing to spend..

for k20a you will eat everything in your way that.. almost..
u will probably run low 13's 1/4 mile ftw!

9k... buy an eg and then do the conversion
looks heaps better than the ED imo
and the conversion would be cheaper!!!
some1 on this forum is selling his b18c for 5k installd so then u got 4l to source a eg civic!!! and that hes from brissie too
