Hi, i have a 1992 acura integra ls, and i do not want to do a frankenstein engine, just a clean engine swap. i have about 3000 to spend on the swap which im doing with a friend, what engine swaps would you recommend, and what extra parts would i need to buy in order to complete it like (wiring harness, mounts, shift linkage,axles) all that stuff....if at all possible, i was hoping to swap in a engine that would only require a ecu change over and wiring harness. what suggestions do u have, thanks so much.

 

jdm gsr pretty much drops in and if you buy the complete changeover from hmotorsonline.com you will get everything you need plus more.

 

forget the swap... just BOOST the bitch! you'll make more power that way...

 

<FONT COLOR="royalblue"> Do whatever you can afford. For 3k you can get ur bottom end rebuilt, all new parts, add a vtec head and you can have yourself a pretty cheap LS/VTEC. Then you will still have money left over to enjoy for the summer.

Rebuild:
New Oem Oil Pump $120
Oem Rings $120
Water Pump & Tbelt $150 ( on h-t )
All New Gasket's $200?
VTEC Head? $600 Complete?
VTEC Conversion Kit $200?
Bearings $200 oem?

You get the idea..

You can use your stock harness and make the necessary changes for vtec, etc. Mounts, Linkage, axles.. you retain ur stock ones.</FONT>
