Default Ebay Rebuild Kit?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/96-01-1-8-L-Acura-Integra-B18B1-16V-Engine-Rebuild-Kit-_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQhashZitem3353d73b9cQQitemZ22044 9946524QQptZMotorsQ5fCarQ5fTruckQ5fPartsQ5fAccessories

Would that be an acceptable kit to use to rebuild the motor? I'm looking to throw 7 psi from a big 16g Mitsu turbo on it too. I'd also get ARP rod bolts and head studs.

Hyperlink thing won't work. If you want to see what the kit is, just go to ebay, type in B18B1 rebuild kit and look for the kit with the big yellow box and all the parts laid out.

Well now the hyperlink IS working... Either way, the link and what I described is the same thing so whichever you look at is accurate.

sometimes they're ok, most of the time they are ****, and they're never as good as OEM.

This brings to mind the term "you get what you pay for." Usually they are junk.

this. i have only had sucess with npr rings off ebay and those nippon racing pistons for budget builds. ebay head gaskets and seals usually always leak when i use them. OEM is the way to go!

inlinefour.com has nice rebuild kits for a decent price.

I've rebuilt a B18B1 using that exact kit for a friend. The gaskets are terrible, but if you are on a tight budget it will work. I highly suggest OEM parts, but I know they can be expensive.
