2000 Si With A D16y8

[emilyfersure]

swap a K-series type r engine in thur' and call it a day!

Is that cheaper than a b16:?

 

[SaxMachine]

From what I've seen, no. K is more expensive than B, not including the work it'll take to swap one in.

Hm. My dad can actually drop the engine in.. We just met with the guy.. Hes giving us 3,250 back.. .So im excitied.. I get to keep my car and get a real engine in it!

Awesome! In that case if you can find a nice K, go for it! Tell him it's like a big block for Hondas.

if you got that much back go w/ a b18c1 (gsr swap) or the stock b16

GOOD DEAL? OR NO?

 

[io_303]

bad deal, its a B16a1 it will be slower than stock....I would not go through ebay anyway.

try http://www.hmotorsonline.com/ they are fare and test their engines first

 

[j_fukin_t]

i'd ask for more proof on the mileage, and also the vin #, almost seems too good to be true BUT it may jump a bunch here in the next half hour in price, check www.hmotorsonline.com
edit: didn't see any on there that you would need (obd2) but damn the k20 type s is going down

 

[ImportFan1]

damn. keep us updated on the swap... B18C5.

My dad found a b18 with like 42k miles on it for 2,300.. Gonna go look @ it later today

 

[io_303]
