just put the y8 in there....dont worry about wiring up vtec or swapping heads. just pull out and stick in...plug up (maybe a little more complicated if its obd-2 you will have to get conversion harnesses or do some wiring yourselrf) and there you go. not alot to change from d15 to d16. no changing mounts or anything. boost that y8 and be happy!

What do you want from your car? What are your goals?
I would recommend saving your money until you can answer these questions and have a plan laid out. I also recommend that a mini-me is not part of this plan.

yeah then just do the mini me for now....then build the y8 back to health and put the y8 head back on it and then swap it. good luck!!

Why not just rebuild the y8 and leave his engine stock...?

there's a how-to when I put a D16y8 head and intake manifold onto my 92 dx
almost all of that will apply to your mini-me swap
