You likely want a obd0 gen 1 b16a. Thats the cheapest, and the easiest for an old car such as that. As far as a tranny, you need cable, right? All the jdm b16a trannies are very close ratio in general. Ryan

A good place to get the engine is hmotorsonline.com

The b16a (160hp) with the hydro trannys are more expensive, just browse that site and pick your engine!!
