Default JDM engine ideas

The car is a 2001 gs
I'm moving to china for 9 months so i can get the engine way cheaper and shipped for free from my company.
JDM H22A Type S
B18C JDM Integra Type R

I plan on getting all of my parts there and sending them over as it will be way cheaper.

Tien suspension? Anyone know of any good turbo companies in asia?

Any ideas on what to buy while im there for my car feel free to say them...

Maybe if I lived in Asia I'd be of help What is the point in having a '01 teg if you're going to swap the engine? Should sell it and swap the engine in an older one.

Default ok

I have the car almost paid off b/c its all i spend my money on (that and fking ins) i want vtec and i dont want to do the ls > gsr conversion... I plan on taking all the money i make for the next 9 months and putting it into my car, thats why i want to do the swap. I want to turbo it also, the whole front clip i dont like cause who knows how messed up the engine is going to be if they totaled the car.

By companies in asia i meant like Tien is in japan.

So if i do the swap which engine am i going to beable to get the most power out of?
I know the b18 is prolly the better choice for fit but idk i havent thought about moding my car for a year.

Where do you think people get JDM motors from???? From front clips. You must be under the assumption people just sell off everything under the hood and replace it with new stuff, but that's not how it works. Swaps that come out of clips are good. Just make sure you're dealing with a reputable vendor.
