I have been talkin sh*t to my friends about swap my engine for two years while I saved up the cash. I will be putting a B18c1 into my 95 civic. I have looked around but everyone wants an arm and a leg for one of these engines. Just wondering if anyone would hook me up with a good place to get my hands on one of they babies! Any help or direction would be very helpful!
Thanks guys!

 

i had teh same problem to the only good GSR motor i could find for less than $2500 were stolen i didnt want 2 go that route so i ended up wit a JDM B16 it ended up being much cheaper.

 

Right move The theft of Hondas/Acuras for parts has become a full blown industry. Dont support these F'ing parasites by buying stolen parts and report anyone you find selling (or buying) this ****. I'm sick to death of the Hybrid crowd getting a bad rap over stolen parts and if i hear one more uppity ITR owner say "all civic hybrids have stolen motors" there is going to be blood on the street.

P.S. I paid $3,500 for a legit 98 GSR motor with 10K on the clock. Remember, you get what you pay for, just do the necessary legwork and check EVERYTHING out. The yard where the engine came from is REQUIRED to keep the VIN information on the engines they sell and any third party seller should have that info as well. If they are reluctant to give you that information its REALLY SHADY and you should walk away.

ditto, I had my turbo civic stolen from me about 2 months ago, now I have a b18 swap in a hatch...dont waste your time with a b16, go for the b18 if you can. Just my opinnion but its well worth the extra cash.

 

Complete GSR Swap $3,500
Complete CRVTEC swap $3,200

E-mail me if interested.
