Is that how much you have on hand? I was going to reccomend you buy privately, but I'm guessing you don't have the cash for that.

What exactly do you want from your car. In 1-2 sentences please. Cause I think a swap is not for you, maybe a turbo setup

Will be cheaper in the end, more impressive and will give your civic torque....

toronto_thunder 19-Dec-2007 01:13 AM

yes easily
go onto turbod16.com lots of info on that site about turbo builds

you still havn't got the car though, get the car first, get an alarm up in it, then worry about upgrading it

That sounds about right for a respectable daily driven setup on a D series. Might be a little more still because if its a daily driver and you need the reliability, you can't cheap out on anything. Plus you will want to spend some time getting tuned. Tuning is the key to reliability. You could have all the right parts, but if it runs like crap, it's not very reliable is it? lol
