Welcome to Honda-Tech.

I'll be the first to say that questions such as these can be answered mostly by learning through your own research.

This forum features a very powerful "Search" function, which is labelled in bold, red letters in the upper-right-hand corner of every page.

Pretty much every question you could have about anything can be answered with the "Search" function.

I wish you luck, young Honda fan.

when i was 14 i built a 22R toyota with LC engineering everything. you are going to learn the hard way, there is no doubt about it. what separates a true honda person from a fly by nighter is what you do after yo jsut realized how much tiem and money you wasted. if you sell it all and buy an F-body you suck.

Yep gonna have to search unless you want to get flame by people who don't want to help.

Well, to answer your question. I think you need to get the car first before you start thinking about what motor your going to drop in there.

The best motor will be what ever you can afford, from a b16 all the way up to the k24.

The question you asked is too broad. One thing I always loved about imports- there are an infinite number of modifications possible. Just keep researching, there are several different ways to approach that.
