I just made a master plan of what I want to get done to my 95 civic dx with in a year. I just want to know is the B16A engine a good swap model for my car with good hp. I'm getting it from hmotorsonline.com and having a local shop install it and it is the best engine for the price? let me know

Dude that's like 12 grand worth of ****. For that price you could find a clean eg or ek hatch with a k series swap already installed. Since your'e new, you cant post in the classifieds, but b4 you spend all that moneyon building a car, save yourself the headaches and buy a really fast car. That's what I would do

i've heard really bad posts about jdm car boy so i dont think i would get anything from them and i think you should take it slow and now blow all that money at once...take a while to compare and contrast parts ya know what im mean? and just focus on one thing at a time

Hmm... $3650 for the motor. I just bought mine and I paid $2575. Maybe you should recalculate your list. Also just do the motor install yourself. The hardest part is the vtec wiring. I could be wrong but it seems like the 95's might have been prewired for it. Sorry for the incorrect info if it is but regardless the hardest part is the wiring.

i would not buy any of that crap. i also feel you should stay away from jdmfagboy.
why dont you start out with a better model car with the engine you want in it already. you would spend less and have less headache. not trying to be negative because doing it yourself is the fun but, all that crap is probably not going to make you happy because it is going to cost an assload to get it installed.

my opinion

I mean all of you guys are right the only thing is I can't buy another car right now, Im married and I have one child. I'm in college right now with 2 years to go and just wanted something to work on for right now. I may just do a mini-me swap but im not sure about that right now because i don't know much about it but im doing some research and i may be able to do it myself
