dont be a cheap ***.
cams are weaker, clutch is cable driven ecu is OBD0 etc etc
its not worth it, it will cost you as much to put a first gen b16 in.
and the motor is over 10 years old.

You'll spend getting random parts to work with an old b16 cable (ewwww) then a newer b16.

JDM spec is much improved vs. USDM BTW.

Will bolt right up as PnP. Few modifications, such as shift linkage.

"1300 is nothing"---to u maybe, but to me it is.

it's hard to make money now and i am just trying to minimize my spending. but since building up cars is my biggiest hobby so i am willing to spend a little more on it. but the main purpose of this post was that i wanted to know the difference between the 2 motors. please dont be harsh just becuz i am new to this forum. although u have more posts than i do, doenst mean that u know more than i do.

lets see here. ur at 38 posts and already at 98%, u tell me that there isnt a problem here.
2000civicEX5spd-
greddy turbo kit/evolution exhaust/profecB boost controller/hks bov
aem fuel pressure regulator/fuel rail
bbk inline fuel pump/random highflow cat/spearco intercooler/blitz turbo timer

tein ha coilover kit/neuspeed front strut bar/lower tie bar/civic si rear sway bar
buddy club p1 racing light weight 15"rims

sparco speed seat/autometer meters

theres ur list of mods on ur car yet i repeat, ur worried about 1300 difference in motors, come no now, get with the program. about 3k on turbo parts, over 2k in suspension ****, and a race seat w/ guages, my god, definitely a cheap ***, yeah right.

in my post i asked,"why can i choose the cheaper b16a1?" i asked this question becuz i dint know they differ this much. since they have close hp output so i was wondering if the b16a1 is a pennysaver. but it turned out that they differ a lot and the b16a2 can actually save more in turns. so u see, i was trying to be cheap. i was trying to learn. please have respect!

whats wrong with his list of mods? he has a turbo kit so he puts down more power than over half this board?
I was considering a first gen till i realized how much it was gonna cost to get running.
he is just learning cut him some slack.

hondaatwsu: No need to go crazy. I know since you go to wsu your most likey drunk right now. This is the question he asked, just leave it at, "don't be cheap, go for a little better and get a lot more". All that needed to be said. Post count, and percentage doesn't mean too much, and none is this case.
