economics 101
okay here's the case.
1. if i swap an B16 in my 97 ek will it:
a) increase the resale value of my car? (by how much?)
b) get a rebuilt title because of the new engine?
c) reduce the value of my car?
d) from a financial standpoint (not from an enthusiast) is it worth it? becasue i'm going back to malaysia once i graduate.
thanks.

you'll never get it all back, financially we as Honda owners get raped pretty good (being honest). I've invested around 12K into my coupe that my parents bought for 6K and I doubt I'd get 9K for it. Thus.. You should really think about it, if you're going to be moving or something like that.

A GSR would be a better investment if you want a B series. Because the value will stick, hybrids won't get their value really.
