I just got a '92 civic hatchback and I'm confused on whether I want to put a JDM engine in it, but I'm a little confused as to whether I should put a B16A or a B18C1 under the hood. I'm thinking more along the lines of the B18C1, but I would like some responses just to see what other people think and reasons why. As much info possible would be greatly appreciated.
 
I don't think many people are going to tell you to get the 1.6 over the 1.8, but the B16A is a hell of a little motor, and can be made into a very nicely performing engine, the GSR starts a little ahead, and has as much support, but cost a grand more, so it is up to your budget really.
