so i've been working on building a b18a the past month or so, just got the entire bottom end back together (fresh rebuilt on everything) and im about to put the head back on, i was originally building this motor to throw in my intergra, but after i get done painting my integra and everything, im really not going to want to daily it anymore. I was thinking about throwing the b18 in an EF hatch to use as a daily driver.

so, assuming the price of the motor is free, since i already have it, how much should i expect to pay for a decent condition EF hatch, possibly not running or something since i dont need the motor, plus everything needed to swap the motor in? Im not really sure how much EFs go for these days, and im unsure of how much the swap would cost (mounts, ect.)

any insight would be appreciated, thanks!

 

I got my crx with 30k miles on it with a pretty good body, few rust spots, but ran flawlessly for $2500 wholesale.

 

You can get a clean shell for less than 1000

 

There's a super-clean hatch body sitting right near the MD/PA line for 600. No motor, and it needs a paintjob, but the body looked to be very good all around when I last saw it.

It depends upon quality of parts used (say hasport v ebay mounts), where you source them, and how much you can lowball successfully

I'll PM you the dude's email about that hatch.

 

check the classifieds and find something that catches your eye.

also, try your local autotrader magazine. you'll find an EF that might suit your tastes and budget.
