i think i just threw up in my mouth a little. JDM has taken over the youth, let alone the world and all imports.

go here and decide for yourself, depends on what you are using the car for and what are your hp expectations and how much money you have of course

you may be different relative to your small community. But your just the same relative to the bigger population: Japan and H-T

Im not bashing you on liking the JDM appearance, I do too. It just that you refer to JDM as imports. You fell in love with Honda's, and modifying them. Thats why you want a motor swap. Not because you fell in love with JDM.

Try to be original. Who cares if everyone here doesn't like it. What matters is what you like, just remember that when you get advice from here. Let them build with their opinions. Take advice. But never let what you want succomb to the H-T mold. Just my .02 for you.

an lsvtec is not a good first time anything. if you have no idea what you're doing, it will lead to more headaches.
