Default Update on MY accident

due to popular demand, i decided to update you guys on the car situation. Its been 2 LONG months and i got word from my lawyer that i should be receiving a check in the mail for my car some time early next month. This check is going to be for my car alone. its worth about a measly 2100 w/ the damage i believe, and then the highest bidder for my car wants to pay 900, and then 700 for loss of use. thats about 3700, plus, my lawyer going to get more. im getting another check for something else, i forget what. with that check and the money i saved up i plan to do a motor swap, preferably jdm b18c w/ lsd tranny. today i picked up some stock struts and springs thanks to "lilredridinghood" and ill be putting it back to stock so the insurance can take it away from me next week. hopefully everything goes as planned. wish me luck







as for the tech, what would you guys go w/, the jdm b18c or a jdm h22, i know the h22 has some clearance issues, so i wouldn't be able to have my car as low as it is right now?

Good luck with the insurance companies.
As for the swap if you're on a budget go with H22 169 at the crank stock, but less support from the aftermarket. B18C more expensive but less weight and one of the most popular swaps in EG. Hope that helps.
