Default FS/FT B16A2 swap w/lsd, ROM tuning setup

New pics and more items added;
I have a B16A2 swap with the mods listed below, and, a complete ROM tuning setup with laptop(for Nissans) see details ande pics on post #47. My posts were combined into this one. I'm not strapped for cash or getting out of the scene, but have too many projects and want to focus more on finishing the ones I want to keep and open up more room in the garage.
My back injury is also forcing the sale of my ITR yellow EG hatchback Honda Challenge build, it will be posted here shortly as well. I get back spasm's which make me "at attention" and also rams my gas pedal foot down-not good, and I doubt I will be able to renew my comp license

$2600 for the full swap with axles, shift linkage, mounts, ecu, header, harness, radiator and hoses. EVERYTHING YOU NEED FOR PLUG AND PLAY, NO NEW PARTS/ADDITIONAL $$$ ARE NEEDED!
-170HP B16A2 VTEC swap with ~48K miles on it, from Auto Adventure in Oregon. Good compression test and it rips, not an oil burner. Axles, boots, and joints all A+ condition.
-New Alt belt.
-Energy susp. urethane rear/front bracket bushings and mounts, stock GSR timing belt side and tranny top mount.
-Radiator looks new, less than a year old I'd guess, and is thicker-about 1" thick core, hoses are almost new dated 2008.
-S4 transmission with aftermarket clutch type LSD(I think it's an OBX LSD), drives great no grinds or bearing noise whatsoever.
-Exedy Stage 2 clutch.
-JG Edelbrock Ceramic Pro-flow Race Header
-Chipped P08 ECU
-3" electric exhaust cutout with harness and switch-wired and ready to plug and play
-Receipts for everything from Auto Adventure and Import Performance Specialties, it's all legit with SN #'s.
-Engine and trans are bone dry, no oil leaks or seapage anywhere.
-Shift linkage with Urethane bushings

Trades wanted/considered:
Stock EG or EK Civic's Automatic or Manual, Sedan prefered but open to all.(need daily while sedan in paint).
Spare B-series LS or GSR Hydro tranny-I will open to verify condition(takes about 30 mins).
D-series hydro tranny LSD unit, OBX or similar.
I will be very fair with trades but want it to be fair both ways, i.e. I should be able to sell your item for credit given against a trade. Don't really want to throw money with my parts, still paying off a baby and looking at $2K plus for paint on my sedan.

its a good start, but you should put everything in seperate sections like motor all together and suspension/wheels things like that

Interior condition? Repaint or original(notice trim painted)?
I'm hoping it will run for awhile yet, but it's going to get my B20 swap in it eventually if I do this. If it's a nice clean body and interior I'm interested.

original paint, its an ex so the trim comes color matched. The rear bumper needs replaced and the the front bumper is not the original that came with the car, but it is an oem one. The paint is not perfect tho, but its still ok. Im sure it will run for a lot longer, but i think the power steering pump might be going. Im not sure tho, i dont have a garage up here to check it out. The last 3000 miles tho have been all freeway miles cause i go back home a lot.

Your wheels should fit my car, it has the slotted and drilled rotors but they are not the big SIR brakes. I'll have a listen to your "noise" and see whats happening there with the P/S pump. Do you have your title on you if we decide to trade or is it back home in Vancouver?

Someones insurance almost bought this tonight, some jackass in a big dodge pulled right out in front of me on my way home from work.
Any other car I wouldn't have stopped in time, came about a foot short of broadsiding the idiot...
Pending trade with turnsignalandy....

^^Keeping your trade in mind, but needs a little more paintwork than I would want to deal with right now. Gonna hold out for a cleaner sedan or cash sale for now.....Bump
I thought all the people that were complaining about hauling their baby in a HB were pussies, but it f'n sucks. Only reason it's gotta go.

I'm going to give it a little more time, the swap already has several interested parties being it can be test driven before purchased and nothing is wrong with it.
I'll be looking for stock HB front and rear seats +cash for mine if it gets to that point, the rears are kinda SI style and have small red stripes in them that match the seats.

To the top, Just to clarify, $5800 as is, or for $4000 take your pick of a JDM 3-stage VTEC or USDM Z6 swap both with a JDM low mile VTI(SI) tranny.
The Z6 runs good, I got it from Ben's coupe at 20-20 customs and got to drive it before he pulled it.

Sorry Andyroo some guy saw them for sale locally and tracked me down at work for the seats....maybe I priced them a little low but oh well.
Snow is going away this weekend going to get into pulling the swap.
Keep and eye on that rearview mirror and always leave yourself a way out

Default Re: F/S: B16A Complete Engine Swap W/LSD header chipped ECU

I'm digging thru some of the receipts for the swap(not what I'm asking):
7/28/08 Import Specialty Automotive
B16A
Intake Mani
Oil filter, Intake Gasket, new upper rad hose, fuel rail, throtle cable, honda MTF, 5w-30 synth oil, coolant
$1300 parts, +$600 for install(engine replaced GSR that blew on dyno).

Reciept dated 5/29/08
Clutch Kit
Billet Flywheel
Honda MTF
$569.33 parts + $250 labor

Tranny receipt is from DragTec, Oregon.
5/30/2003
00' Civic SI tranny "with 2 way LSD?" The axle snap ring was a little grabby on the diff when removing the swap. And looking thru it there is the hole and no pin. I'm going to guess OBX LSD in there.
$1000.00

Other loose reciepts
JG Edelbrock Pro-Flow Ceramic Header + B-pipe $450
Plug wires $108

Chipped ECU and tuning time $325

I'm home today so I'm going to take some photo's and maybe a start up and running movie.
