either a B18B or a B18C would be good.

 

were would i got to get one,
now which one would i look for a type r or gsr or what?

 

depends on how much you want to spend..lol...i jus swapped a gsr b18c1 in my 95 and i love it..i would try jhotimports.com...jus give them a call..they are usually really reasonably priced

 

depends on what your using it for, you should slowly build rather than take out a loan to buy parts especially if your going to waste them on a body kit Keep it clean and spend it on other things. Function > Form. If plan to go ITR plan on spending $4-5k on a full swap ie tranny, ecu, etc. Check out hmotorsonline.com purchased my k from there and was very satisfied. On roll cage side check out http

best bang for your buck and you can get the bolt in to retain rear seats. BTW if your able to afford a cage and ITR swap you should be able to afford some nice full coilovers ie. Ksports or whatever your liking as well as wheels, full exhaust etc.

 

Um.

Please don't actually take out a loan to get a body kit for your car.

Quite possibly the worst financial decision you can make.

Seriously, don't. You're [freak]ing yourself on this and you will regret it.

 

no i was taking a loan out for every thing, i already have my car loan finished,( it was 4k) im real good with paying thing off, by the way im trying to go all jdm

 

Ya this could possibly be the worst time to take out a loan, interest rates are exceedingly high due to your great economy and you'll have to take out a personal loan to use it for what you want to use it for. Instead of paying payments on a loan just buy one part at a time with the money you would have used to pay your payment and slowly but surely your car will look good. If you want to go all JDM then stay far far away from body kits, the closest thing to a body kit that would look semi-ok is Backyard Special parts which are pretty expensive and hard to come across. All JDM is pretty pricey also, you could go Jdm styling but not actual JDM if you don't wanna spend all your dang money ahah. Go to inlinefour.com or J's racing to see the dang prices of JDM goods haha

 

thanks guy for all your comments i think i am going to save and spend the money i got and slowly make my car look good? but it hard because i hate waiting for thing lol am i able to buy a jdm front bumper and rear and get front and rear lips add to them?

pic coming soon of my car and ill take pics of being stuck in the mud in my own yard lol
it pretty sad

thanks civic_chick
