Hello everyone. So I have an opportunity to purchase a b18c Type R complete swap at a really good price ($2200). Is there any for seeable problems with installing it in my 95 4dr LS. I want to keep all the creature comforts that are still with my car. the only thing that I don't know yet on the motor if it is obd2, which I think all type r are? Correct me if I am wrong.

thanks

 

scoop that Sh*t up i'm pretty sure all ARRR are OBDII... $2200 is a steal if the compression test shows good #'s

 

Yes, you can swap that engine into your car with no problems. I believe all of them are OBD2 but I could be wrong.

 

Run a carfax on the VIN to make sure it's legit.

 

All of the USDM ITR motors are OBD2.
Get a compression test done and make sure the motor is legit as well. And by saying complete swap, I'm assuming you get the tranny as well?

 

your pretty much stealing that motor!

 

$2200 for a C5 is suspiciously cheap. But if its legit, buy it.

 

dude for $2200 thats sweet! thats like buying a b16a2 for that price in import places!

Indeed. I would be very wary of such a low price, and would make every possible effort to verify that it was obtained legitimately and not the result of an all-to-common theft.

Assuming your are able to verify the legitimacy of the motor, you'll find that it will be quite simple (even if it is a JDM motor) to install it into a DB7 while retaining all of the car's original features.

 

I think thats totally Bullshit. Nobody is going to sell a motor thats is easily worth 4k-5k for half price. If they do than somebody is really hooking you up, but **** like that is always too good to be true. Why dont you punk us all off after you buy it with pics of your swap and a receipt, cause for that price i'd like to be put down for 2 engines. lol. in case i blow one. lol.

 

Thanks for the responses. As soon as I get to see it and hopefully purchase it, I will keep everyone posted.

 

only thing is your going to need to run a couple extra wires ...not a big deal
