So here's the my problem...
My car's been down for almost 2 months.I have a new exhaust (rsr exmag) new intake (AEM) Hood (OEM carbon fiber) Header (JDM 4-1 replica) Cat (Carsound ) sitting in my living room. My car stopped running and I was planning on just taking it out and getting it rebuilt. I didn't have enough knowledge/tools/time and couldn't find any of my friends to help me. so I brought it to this shop down the road from me and they said they'd do everything. They checked it out today and said my compression was like 100-20-110-80 or something like that, I don't remember them all exactly. but it wasn't good. and they said my head might be cracked, I was like wtf. My god father told me he could get me a japanese engine for 1200 shipped, I wasn't interested before but now I am.
First, What would you do, have them fix mine if possible. Get a B18A (Same as what I have now) or what Ikinda wanted to do a B18C1.
Second, where are some website that ship JDM engine, I just wanted to look at some reliable to compare prices.. Thanks in advance.

Rebuild's 1000 from the machine shop, and whatever the garage wants to charge me for labor. So I figure it'll be like the same thing if I got the JDM motor, which is better for 200 bucks more...
