Default WHAT TO DO

Well, here is my situation. I toatled my integra ls and bought it back the motor is fine but the tranny is ****. The motor has 70 k on it and ran like a champ still does starts up in the busted teg. Then i bought a civic dx and need to get rid of the motor. I DONT WANA TURBO!!! i have my reasons. All my friends tell me dont throw the ls motor in the coupe.. its a waste.. blah blah.. all they suggest is doin a gsr swap and honestly i dont want to spend 3000 or more for that. Plus i practicly got the ls motor for free for what i bought it back for..SO sould i throw the ls motor in and call it a day or what . PLUS THE CLUTCH IS BLOWN ON THE LS MOTOR

screw what your friends say.. unless they're gonna help you buy a GSR, drop the LS in there. As for your tranny, search the Marketplace and find a b16 tranny, it'll be better than the LS b/c of the shorter gears.

Do what you want, unless one of your friends is going to pony up cash for you to do what he wants.

i agree with all the people above. its worthless to spend money when you have an engine you know thats still good. drop the engine in and sell the engine that you took out from the civic, to get a little bit of money and get a tranny. then call it a day.
