Which swap to do ???
I have a 92 CX HB and I plan to perform and engine swap, I only paid $1,200 for the car, so I think it was a good investment. I either plan to go with the USDM B18C1, or USDM B16, or JDM B16. Whatever I end up getting I also plan to turbo it. Im not going to go all out racing in this car I just want to have plenty of power when I need it.

B16A or B18C with turbo would be great. you'll be making over 200 to the wheels with either motor, and its great for daily.
i personally like the B18C gsr better, its an great motor. it got more TQ and more HP than the B16a.

well that's hard to say because no one has ever put a b series motor into a eg hatch before.
you might try to install one of those in ta gura engines in there I hear they are fast.

b series motors bolts right into the 92-95 civics. and there are only four wires you need to run after that. its a very simple swap.

Re: Which swap to do ??? (Schmedley)
I'm actually gonna buy an EG soon and plan on having a h22 swapped in. I'm willing to sacrifice the handling for some straight line speed. I always hear of b18 civics...not too many h22 ones though. Wanna be different.

Re: Which swap to do ??? (RK)
yeah great choice. you know what? i have a 96 civic hatch with the h22a, the handle is not bad at all. all i have is the skunk2 coilovers and the blue T-shocks or soemthing. well you'll be in the 13s soon, possiblely high *** 12s.
Oh yeah the guy on top his right..... you'll probably never go wrong with the B series motors, but when you do the h22a swap make sure you do it one time and one time right. remember you get what you pay for. make sure you get a guy who knows whats up.
by the way i have three h22a in stock still. so let me know if you want one.
email me or give me a call.
