Thanks again Calesta for all your help.
Heres is what I spent on the car up until recently:
$ 350 Apexi WS cat back
$ 850 crappy wheels and tires
$ 550 Rotas and tires I shoulda gotten the first time
$1500 Greddy turbo kit
$ 200 2.5" Downpipe and rehang exhasut
$1500 98 B18b swap w/ B17a longblock with bad head thrown in
$ 100 Greddy B18 turbo manifold
$ 325 Greddy 18g turbo
Thats about $5500. All the major parts you need for a car right? Probably only a few hundred dollars more to finish it up. Here's what Ive spent in the last few weeks.
$ 600 B16 head that might not have the right dizzy and TB
$ 339 GE LS/VTEC conversion kit
$ 270 RC 440s
$ 150 P28 from junkyard for chipping
$ 100 Chip burner and chipping supplies
$ 250 TechEdge wideband O2 for tuning
$ 120 E manage Support Tool in case I cant get the chipping to work
$ 225 97 Del Sol rear disk brakes gotta have brakes with all that power
$ 200 Brakes lines and E brake cable that you need to finish the Del Sol brakes
$ 180 ITR sway bar with Beaks kit and SI end links
$ 159 polyurethane motor mounts and suspension mounts
$ 110 Del Sol AC bracket to finish swap
$ 60 Integra clutch line to finish auto manual conversion
Plus Im gonna pay some guys $750 to do the swap and auto to manual conversion.
Thats just about $10,000 altogether for a Civic that doesnt even have a built motor.
And thats why Im leery of building up the engine. Before you know it the engine build up will turn into another 6 month, $2000 fiasco.
And yes I know I can sell some of this stuff, but generally I dont like selling stuff and usually unload my stuff cheap. Also, I start thinking that as long as I have an extra D16 motor and turbo maybe I should pick up a CRX and throw it in there.
Anyway, ya'll know how it goes.
