No clue yet. I am in the middle of all of my research as to what will fit me best. I am thinking some type of DOHC non-vtec with parts readily available in the US & decent fuel economy. I want to get my hands on the correct motor, trans, and everything needed. Rebuild it all, start from brand spankin new. We put a ninth bay in my shop this week, so I'll have the room. I am pretty damn good with VW's but I am new to the Honda scene. I know alot about maintenance, but very little about performance, especially motor swaps. I am learnin a little more every day. I actually think my next step is going to be putting MPFI on my lil 1.5 so it can be all ready for the swap.

 

Also contemplating this -

Before


After


Only because I have the ability to get it done for free.

 

Looks good both ways. My buddy has em in bronze.

 

the black looks good. and the mpfi would be a good idea period more power better fuel economy.

 

doo itt, looks dope man

pretty sure MPFI lowers your fuel economy. not by a lot but it deffinetely does NOT raise it!!!

This is true. I am waiting for that reason. Gonna gather everything up and be ready for a slight decrease in fuel economy and a slight increase in power.

 

my bad. it actualy does slightly lower it on my part. sorry i hate to be that guy throwing false info out.
for some reason i was thinkin... idk hah. sorry again man.

 

Oh, no worries. I was well aware it was BS.

Will do. I am now out of stuff to do. I think I am just gonna keep my eyes open for a rear disc swap and get that all knocked out. Too bad the local Honda/Acura wrecked closed up.

 

So, yeah. Been watchin the classifieds and such for the rear disc stuff I need. No damn luck. Anyone wanna point me in the right direction? In Seattle, willing to travel.

It was out of a 95 Integra. No trimming at all.
