i was just posting this because i had the motor and a dc shell. i swapped it and it is not as slow as one would believe. drove from nh to fl with no problems. it was basically just for gas mileage. im saving for a gsr swap and will build the gsr. i would appreciate it if no one said how stupid this swap is, i know it doesnt really make much sense, but i had the motor and shell. anyway just lettin people know. feel free to leave non-negative comments lol

 

good thinkin. honestly. when do you think the gsr motor will be ready to be put in? how many miles on the d16

 

Random post.. "Not as slow as one would think" unless that one knows about cars. Certainly not an issue for a commuter while you're waiting for a b18c1 swap, but YES, it would be as slow as I think.

 

i guess haha. im not sure im going to school so i wont have alot of money but im going to save up slowly. i want to find a mostly complete swap for less than 1200 and get some high comp pistons and built the head completely. so i dont really know, hopefully by next may or so

 

i know its a random post. i know about cars i meant that it isnt slow as ****. it pulls, obviously alot less than a b series but you cant expect much out of 125 horsepower i am pretty happy with the power though i expected it to be slower. the motor is out of a 92 hatch. it has about 60,000 miles on it.

 

not bad mileage at all. yeah i'm in school too. alota car stuff is realllly budgeted especially seeing i just got my ls so i gotta pay it off too. next may is a good deadline. any later than that and you could be gettin into the bad seasons to drive depending where you live

 

right on. im living in orlando for at least a year, so i wont have any snow coming. i had lived in new hampshire all my life and it was pretty shitty driving a car with 3 inches of clearance in deep snow and in major frost heaves. its a nice change

 

good stuff. so you're avatar is a da. but you said you swapped it into a dc. and your name is 92 civic hatch. how many freakin cars do you have?

 

i have a da and a dc right now. im selling my da, i left it back in nh. so in a few days ill only have the dc. i had a 92 hatch but my friend drives it now we swapped it to an ls.
