right hand drive crx b18 swap
hi, i have a 91 right hand drive crx, i imported the entire front jdm clip and spliced it together with another car, its wild, the car came factory with a b-16 and is wired for vtec. BUT I DONT WANT THE B16. i am looking for a b18 vtec crate engine, something reliable but fast, i know someone can make around 240hp all motor b4 spray. i was reading up on the j's engines and people say they suck and they only make like 210hp. the LS motor i just blew up made around 300hp with nitrous and that was a junkyard motor that took a bottle a week for 7,500 miles with a ys1 tranny. does someone know where i can get a fully assembled/machined/ported/polished/decked/cammed--tweeked b18 vtec all done with quality work??? i want to put this car together once and for all. any help from someone who knows please. im kinda new to the honda world... and what kinda combination can i run to go to work and run 11's?

yea about 5000... that comment is funny btw... i know im all over the place, but i have the gsr hammer wheels on the car now, i believe 15 inches and its lowered 1.5 inches, i got the kit from kidimports/w koni shocks. but for the crx, would 17" rims by 7" wide be too big? would they rub or should i go for 16"? any ideas, cuz i dont want to buy a new set of wheels and tires and then be screwed...
"conjunction junction, what's your function?" I really don't understand what you're asking us. Do you want know if there's a guy who can build your motor?
going 11 seconds all motor is really hard for bseries that is all motor no spray no boost
best bet would be to check out a place lik race engineering or something like that it is in the modified magz books they have assymbled darton short blocks etc i would personally do low comp. turbo and that would be best and cheaper bet to get into 11's

That doesnt make any sense..If you want to make 260hp all motor then you 're going to have to run a very high compression ratio,,,but then you say you want to boost it later,,?? What the hell are you talking about,,?? And since when did j's racing suck,,?? they are one of the best,,You think 210 hp is easy to make with an all motor b16a..?? No offense but you sound like you dont know **** about anything and getting a fully built motor would be dangerous to you ,,and you'd probaby blow it up..Do some more research please before you go wasting money,
By the way if all you want to run is 11's you can use the stock b16a motor you have now,,get a turbo kit and good management,,Those b-series motors can handle +300hp and that much hp should get you into the 11's in a crx with slicks..,**** my friend has a 240whp turbob16 crx and runs 11's on slicks,,

i second the notion for have a rhd crx....its a beatiful thing....rhd goes great with 450hp at the wheels, love my crx 10 x's more now that its rhd....how long did it take you...wanna swap pics...lol.....na but seriously...how much of a nightmare was yours cause mine sucked, and i'm a frame tech...i do it for a living...anyone interested in a conversion pm me....2 weeks downtime!!!!!!!!!

is the key when you have a fully built Head & Block togethor and just add that with 16 inch slicks on a CR-X then you should be good to go . .

im sorry about the misunderstanding... i dont want to boost it, what i was saying is that i want a high compression, hi revving b18 vtec that will make at least 225 hp all motor b4 nitrous. i plan on spray. do you know anyone who can build this engine?
i gotta take some pics... i bought the front clip from jdm, the entire thing... its legit, no bullshit column and dashboard. i used angle iron, frame,subframe connectors and welded it together with an american crx... connected it at the a-pillar at the top and the center of the door (the center of the car) at the bottom. it wasnt as hard as i thought. my friend steve is a pro.. and he helped me, the glass went in no prob, the doors close nice and the alignment is good, and the car is solid.
cool, you cant go back now, but a firewall swap is definitley the way to go...it doesnt interefere with the integrity of the car in any way shape or form, it will actually make it stronger because of the reinforments of lap joint and lap welds eveywhere, also alot easier, faster and cleaner looking(in most cases) i found it to be much easier though...but there is a million and one ways to do everything...see my car in sport compact the summer! gunmetal sir clone....450whp! gold wheels b16a!
