Default high mileage what should i do ???

Well i got a civic with high miles 180K+, and soon when i get to 190-200k i was thinking what should i do : Get another D16 motor or get this one rebuilt which would be better/cheaper lol .

i have 175k on my d15b7. hopefully before it dies on me though i have enough money to put a turbo d16z6 in it.
that is what i would do, easy swap and you can get relativly nice numbers.

i have seen people on http://www.turbod16.com with numbers reaching 250whp on stock internals.

nothin just the high mileage i'd rather have a lower mileage cause i never know when it could die on me

I dont come across funds to get one unless u willing to give me one id gladly accept then

will cost you more to rebuild the one you have IMO. You can find alot of D series motors lying around cheap. Mine will be lying around real soon as well .
