my dads friend is selling a 93 integra with clean title and clean body 203k, has a blown engine. He wants 900 for the car. Is it worth buying and dropping in a new engine? am i going to have a hard time to find a 93 engine for this car since that was the last year of that body style? I want to spend as little on this car for a daily driver not looking to do a full on swap. Car is completely bone stock.

 

buy it. Slap on your choice of any B-series motor. You will save alot of $$ this route, since the car is only $900.

 

$900?

offer him $400, maybe $500 tops


tell him it's your $$ or $50 from the junkyard

 

no way
don't do this deal, since you can get a running 2nd gen teg that has that kind of mileage for the same price. So at least you have something to drive while saving up for your mods. for instance:

I know you're in CA, not PA.....but similar deals can be had in CA I'm sure.

 

id buy it...thats just my .02
