Default NEW GUY PLEASE HAVE MERCY

Im new here, so please be gentle with my redundant questions. I have a 93 Integra with a B18B in it. I want to put this motor in to either a 92-95 Hatchback or 88-91 Civic Sedan. My question is; what engine components from a Type-R can I implement on to this block? I dont want V-Tec or Turbo. I want all natural and I want something that can be daily driven. Im not greedy, so I dont want some insane amount of power just enough to have fun. If there are aftermarket components that can give better results I will go with those. Reliability is important. My next question is; what suspension and interior components from the Integra fit on to a Civic of the models described above? Your advise as well as your opinion will be much appreciate it. Thanx in advance

You can use type-r pistons, oil pump, throttle body. Using anything else that would fit - header, water pump/timing belt, and most other crap would just be silly. Just buy after market engine mods.

I have been to turned off to the idea of V-Tec due to my experience with it. I have had 3 cars that where equipped with V-Tec (98 Prelude, 99 Si, 94 Accord)and all of them had problems with the SPOOL VALVE A.K.A, the V-Tec solenoid. It can get stuck by building up carbon or developing a bad sensor. This problem would occur after at least 80,000 miles. The solenoid can be expensive and with out this you have no fun-high-revving-horsepower. So enough, I just want straight linear power. Thanx for all your replies.
