WTB: Your Stock B18C5 from your wrecked / dismantled R.
Link to Classifieds WTB thread
I've been toying around with the idea of importing a JDM B18C swap - and I realized there are many R owners out there with wrecked cars or whatnot that still have the motor.
If anyone has one for sale, i'd much prefer buying an engine off a USDM R with legit (known) mileage, and carry on the memory of that R, instead of buying a "low mileage JDM swap" blind.
Just wanted to check here before I send a crapload of money to an "importer" - no disrespect intended to anyone who doesn't believe the R motor should leave an R.

Damn, I just sold my hatch with USDM B18C5 motor and everything...
I was orginally going to part the entire thing out and I would have for sure sold you the motor!
Good luck with the search though...I'm sure it wont take to long to find one

Re: (Ben Howard)
The issue is, the engine in my GF's del sol is about to blow - so she will get the minty fresh LS motor from my car after I swap in a tasty B18C / B18C5. Killing two birds with one stone, I guess you might call it.
