What is the best engine to swap into a 92 hatchback????? I was thinking a GSR but it is probably real expensive. Would it be better to just get a B16a cause it nott that big of a hp difference and a lot cheaper i think.

The best swap for the money would be definitively a GSR, which in Japan is called the Sir-G. It is usually the best motor to start modifying after you drop it in and there is not much needed to swap it in aswell. The b16a is also a fun motor which revs forever, but it does not porvide enough torque which can be dissapointing. When you look at the price differences between the two the GSR (Sir-G) is not that much more expensive as well, and for a little bit more money you have an engine that is a lot stronger right from the start. If you are looking for a good swap, with all the parts needed for a swap e-mail me and I can probably find something for you. My e-mail rafal_bulgarski@yahoo.com

b16a1,2,3 for the and power is probably the best reasonable engine to get for a hatch. The gsr is definatly a good choice also, and if you can get teh money the best to get would prolly be b18c5.

if you can find one, maybe even try a b16b
