Default 86 integra ls, swapping

I know this isn't the integra forum but i thought you guys would have more knowledge in the subject. Is there anything you can do to this car. Swapping engines, shorter geared trannys, head swap, swap internals, anything. I'm so curious because there is one real cheap for sale in my area and thought about tinkering with it I plan to maybe fabricate a junkyard turbo hybrid that will inevitably blow up
Any advice would be greatly appreciated

You will actually need a first generation brown top ZC. The black top does not bolt in. You could just put a set of black top ZC cams in it. That would probably put you in as good a shape as the entire brown top swap.

There is a black top ZC that will bolt up, but I hear it's pretty rare. Get the brown top, it will drop right in, use the existing ECU. You will have to do some minor mods to get the fuel line from the right side to the left (either extend the hose or swap the fuel rail) but other than that it should be a piece of cake.

Do you know of a good place to get a zc motor. Would a d16z6 also swap in with appropriate axles ecu and wiring changes. Thanks a lot

I don't know about the Z6. Anything can be done, if you have the money, time and knowledge. I'm in Canada so I don't know any places in the US that are good.
