thanks</TD></TR></TABLE>if you do the B16 swap yourself, better plan on spending around $2500

from Hmotors - JDM B16A SiR - complete changeover - engine, transmission, ECU, intermediate shaft and axles (which may or may not be any good) = $1499 (add $300 for LSD transmission) plus shipping which is going to run around $250

mount kit and shift linkage $400-$450

going to need header and exhaust work

before you install it, you should replace the timing belt, front and rear seals and oil pan gasket - hoses, oil, oil filter, spark plugs, coolant, etc. ($ adds up)

if your CRX is HF, you will need to replace the knuckles/hubs

if you want to boost it and want it to last, you will need to build-up the bottom end
