I am thinking of swapping my engine out. Ihave a 94 civic ex. I live in the NYC area (Brooklyn and soon moving ot NJ). Is there a reputable shop to go to for a swap. Also how much does a swap for a GSR motor cost?

 

I'm supposed to get my swap this coming week at Full Throttle NYC. Their prices are decent, the owners' cool, but a smart ***. check out their site http://www.fullthrottlenyc.com, just tell them touch referred you. Give them a call.

 

DRT perhaps?

 

DRT- http://www.drtracing.com

 

there it is

 

You could check out Ultima Performance in Lynbrook......

http://www.ultimaperfomance.com

 

all those shops r rip offs they charge an arm and a leg for swaps and there engine suck ... try 2 go 2 a local guy who would do it for you ... let me know if you want my shop 2 install it for you

 

ok 3 of the biggest and well known shops in nyc suck and so do thier engines

and i think he said reputable,which usually means a little more expensive- remember your paying for experince and expertise, not some kid in his parents gargage hacking your car...

how much experince do have?? any experince tunning... do you have a dyno??
didn't think so....


BTW i do all my own swaps/builds/mods... but ralphy @ DRT will be tunning/dynoing my car

 

For a good install and a good deal go to http://www.b20vtec.com and contact either Charlie or Bob. They do great work and the prices are amazing.

I am friends with Mike from Ultima, his guy does great work as well. However, it will be more expensive.

I think I will go with b20vtec, their prices is just unbelievable. now the question is where can I find the motors?

 

to anyone besides YOU working on your car!

If you got a place to do it, I'll happily lend a hand on the weekends, but you're buying . I'm not an experienced swapper, but I'm a decent mechanic.

 

I thiink we should keep in touch. I'll be moving in about a month to a house in NJ with 2 car garage so I will have plenty of space. Send me an email. civh@netzero.net.

 

I'll also say Fullthrottle. I got my swap done there along with an auto to manual conversion and the work and price are both good.

 

DRT does good work...
