you're not going to be able to run much with the same ECU unless you chip it. You'll be able to run a LS very crappy with that DX computer.

Probably an LS would be your best bet...cheap and plug n' play

5000 canadian is like 23000 american, you could probably get a used type-r and forego the engine swap

send george bush a thank you note.

(bows before his canadian overlord)

i'd pay closer attention in english class if you think easyest is a word.

with that kind of money you can go for a complete b18b swap and still have plenty leftover to boost that bitch

Now to the op depending on whatever your budget is any d or b series motor is a straight drop in. If you don't trust your self with wiring about 5 wires then you can pick up an engine half harness from any 92-95 civic ex/si that has vtec already wired into it. I would either go gsr or itr if your budget is high, if not then maybe a b18b ls turbo or ls-V b18b block with a b16 head.

Easiest would be a JDM D15B VTEC.

Swaps right in with stock mounts. The only changes are 2 wires for VTEC and the correct ECU.

You can get the entire motor, tranny, and ecu from Hmotors for less than a grand shipped to your door. 130hp delivered!!
