k, thanks. i'll buy from there

Yeah but an engine with 35,000 miles doesn't mean that it doesn't have a blown head gasket or some other problem in the engine. It also doesn't mean that the owner of the car with that engine didn't drive it hard and cause it to wear much faster and not take care of his engine. I know, I was...

Ok. I was originally going to buy a DOHC ZC engine for about $600. It was gonna be used and with about 35,000 miles on it. Well...I went to my local import shop Kamikaze Racing and I asked the guy if it was a good idea. He said you shouldn't buy an engine for that cheap. You never know if there...

I'm thinkin' about goin with a ZC engine to put in my 1991 Honda Civic DX Hatch. I heard that the Si Tranny is the best choice because of it's final drive and I was wondering what my quarter mile times would be with this combination. Just a rough estimate would be nice. Also, where could I...

Can anyone help?

oh, I know. But anyway, it drives smoothly and there weren't and still aren't any mechanical problems with the engine. It all runs pretty well but I haven't dynoed it or anything to know what I'm running.

well it was taken care of really well. Especially the interior and exterior. Really nice.

I just bought a 93 Integra w/ 135,000 miles on it. Is that too many miles to start building up the engine? Will there be a signifigant horsepower loss with that many miles? If so should I rebuild the engine or put on a B18c1 Head?

Where can I find a B18C1 cylinder head and will it fit on a B18A1 block? Also, where can I find a Y1 cable transmission. In case you are wondering I have a 1993 Integra LS. Thanks for the help and the links.

Anyone know if www.osakajdmmotors.com is a good place to buy an engine. I've noticed on their website they seem to have the cheapest prices for all JDM motors compared to the other websites I've looked at.

K thanks.

k thanks. Should I use my LS tranny (YS1) or go with a Y1 tranny?

Thanks, so do you think I should just rebuild my B18A1 or buy a B16A1? The only reason I don't want to buy a B16 is b/c I can't seem to find any perfomance bolt-ons b/c I don't know what to look for. I know most of the parts are Del Sol and Integra, or at least that's what I heard but I have...

Where can I buy a B17A1 Integra engine and can I use the Integra GS Tranny or are they the same with both integra engines, meaning the b17A1 and the b18A1? Thanks a lot.

Hey, I have a 91 Civic hatch Si wih like 190,000 miles on it. The engine is still pretty strong but let's face it, this bitch doesn't have any more good horsepower and I don't think it's necessary to upgrade it. My question is, should I rebuild this engine and just build it up slowly, should I...
