Things to do while a motor swap?!
Alright guys im finally getting my B18C in my hatch and I was wondering what I should do while the motor is out...
Im going to get a new water pump and timing belt (might as well do it now!!!)
I was looking for a type R fuel pump (any suggestions?)
NGK spark plugs and wire kit
Get a wire tuck done during install
Are there any other recommended things for me to do?
Thanks for your help guys!
After my car is done ill post up some pics

if your bay is dirty, might as well clean it with the motor out.

My budget will only cover the motor and tranny and full tune up.
unfortunately intake manifold, throttle body and exhaust manifold will have to wait a bit. I just redid my entire brake system, suspension and now motor!

Of all the suggestions I'd say the axels are the most important, unless your axels are in perfect shape that is. Changing them will be a lot of work with your suspension and transmission in, so changing with the engine would be a great route to take.
