I need your guy's help on what to do with my car???!!!
I have a 97 DX coupe. (EJ6) and currently I have my stock d16y7.
I honestly do not think my motor is going to last very much longer.
I was thinking about maybe doing a mini-swap for now, until I get my b18b1 motor. But then I thought it's a waste of money.
What should I do? mini-me for now, or just try and save up for the b18b1. Or find another motor for cheap, for now swap it in and then start saving up for my b18b1???
You guys can bash all you want, Im expecting it.
P.S. This would be in the General Disscussion Forum, but for some reason I am not allowed to IM/or post in GD forum.

If your motor isnt going to last, then why the hell would you waste all of ur time on a head swap? What exactly is about to expire in the engine? Head gasket? piston rings? Valve seals? Tranny? My Mini-me cost me about $600, so if ur planning on swapping a B18 anyway i'd just do that
