looks clean. i'de go for it. but how many miles are on the body. the engine might run but it doesnt do good if the body falls apart.

 

body i believe has bout 140k on it?

a b16 is a teg is still faster than a b18a/b

dont be mad ben just because i whopped you all those times on stadium way

 

looks like a clean teg,she jus needs to be dropped and get rid of the clears.kinda feeling the exhaust too

 

ack! why would you downgrade from a b18 to a b16, should have just swapped a gsr head onto that b18. i would really hate to think a perfectly good b18 went to waste

The B18 had 140K miles on it, if you would've read past posts. For a motor and tranny fresh with only 35K miles on it, I'd say it's a fair deal. He's got a fair list of mods there, and the body, although it has 140K miles, looks pretty clean nonetheless. I'd say it's a good trade.

 

It's only a downgrade if you leave it stock, and never get into high rpms. If this car is only meant to go from point A to point B, never exercised, then the B18A was a better engine...but a VTEC engine will always respond better to modication than a non-vtec.

And the gold fat fives with the Rio Red paint.

DA = 90-93 non vtec hatch
DB1 = 90-93 sedan
DB2 = 92-93 GSR

 

yeah the gold rims on red is tacky...keep your civic

its not a downgrade...those cars in japan came with those engines

 

yuck 91 bumpers... drop it like its hot and then its nice haha j/p man but really i have a 90 teg with a j-spec b16a with 92 -93 bumpers and dropped 2 inches. i like the way it looks. just ditch the ugly front bumper. get a 92-93 one

 

i'd keep the car and get rid of all that obx crap...

DA is just the vehicle code of the integ, second gen integ's are DA's, and 3rd are DC(2 door) DB(4 door), thats all dont worry, no flamin here.

 

i like how u posted each pic three times LOL.

if u like it, get it. i want an H22a...as soon as my B17a gets too tired...and i have some $$ muhahahah

 

What's all this talk about him downgrading from a B18? I don't see where he said his Civic had one.

maybe be A LITTLE faster. but it'll be **** to drive around... no torque

 

good deal for him, not for you. i woudlnt trade my car for an older DA. sorry

 

i would only trade if it also came with some cash but hey its youre deal no mine and it is a clean looking car...

 

whats wrong with the b16a in the DA? hell, its what many of the DA6 models had, with the xsi at the top.
the car is lighter than the gen3(especially since his is an RS), which is what the people, saying its a bad idea, have. the b16 isn't as much of a problem.

the car looks good except the wheels need a different color, maybe gunmetal or silver. and some 1-pieces would be nice. also, the DA6 front lip is no different than a DA9's. did he black out or get rid of the front signals?
