Alright guys im finally getting my B18C in my hatch and I was wondering what I should do while the motor is out...

Im going to get a new water pump and timing belt (might as well do it now!!!)
I was looking for a type R fuel pump (any suggestions?)
NGK spark plugs and wire kit
Get a wire tuck done during install


Are there any other recommended things for me to do?

Thanks for your help guys!
After my car is done ill post up some pics

Its always easier to do a clutch and flywheel while the motor is out.

if your bay is dirty, might as well clean it with the motor out.

 

might want a new oil pump. Def do the clutch too.

i smell timing belt

 

Axles too... mine gave out not too long after.

 

Cam seals

 

i was thinking also:
new battery
pcv valve
timing belt tensioner
thermostat
and obbviously all fluids

 

I also change the water pump. no sense changing the timing belt and tensioner and not changing that too.

NO power steering and NO AC

 

i say do everything that everyone has said on this thread

 

a new intake manifold, it is way easy to get to while the motor is out of your car so you might as well

new IM? why would he change the IM?

oh u got a b18c1 engine(GSR), yah i dont really like the way that looks, not sure of the performance tho.

 

My budget will only cover the motor and tranny and full tune up.

unfortunately intake manifold, throttle body and exhaust manifold will have to wait a bit. I just redid my entire brake system, suspension and now motor!

 

Of all the suggestions I'd say the axels are the most important, unless your axels are in perfect shape that is. Changing them will be a lot of work with your suspension and transmission in, so changing with the engine would be a great route to take.

 

Im supposed to get axles with my motor kit, should i go for brand new OE parts from a teg?

 

re-paint the engine bay

 

anything else?

 

rear main seal, front main seal

 

tuck some wires.
