My 94 b18c1 is in the machine shop as we speak....(been too f*cking long if you ask me....like a month) cleaning and measuring the bores of the stock motor. I have purchased 01 R cams and springs....everything else is OEM 94 gsr parts for the head....depending on what the bore measurements are, I will put in oversized R pistons, R rods and OEM bearings and have the crank machined. I am staying all motor cuz it's a daily driver and I'm not the most wealthy person to be keeping up with turbo maintenance. I don't know what you are looking for but I"m hoping to at least pull 185-190 whp with the setup along with I/H/E....HTH

you should figure out what you want to do with your engine. Do you want it just rebuilt? Bigger cams only? Max power?
If you haven't done so already, go to team-integra.net and sign up then READ the articles FIRST, especially swapping parts for power, then if you still have questions ask them here or there but be forewarned that at teamintegra they will not stand for useless questionsso make sure and read the articles completely.
But back to the question, what do you want from your car then it will be easier to help and good luck

you need to throw some CTR pistons in there, new bearings and balance/knifedge the crank.

That's about all you can do. Unless you want to bore it over and such.

When I finished my rebuild, my motor has never ran smoother/better than ever.

parts are cheap, labor is expensive.

Labor itself would prolly run you around a cool grand. Do it yourself. Many people including myself have rebuilt their own engines.
