Help me find a swap! :(
 

My engine needs a new axle, has an oil leak, and needs a clutch done so i want to get my swap done sooner than later. i almost got a gsr swap tonight but the f*cker flaked and im SOL. i can get a full b18c1 swap from ******** for 1850 cash i believe. but someone please help me out, im looking to find the cheapest b series swap for my civic, full swap. ive searched but cant find any better deals, so i figure maybe you guys know some people who are selling a swap. thanks for reading guys, im down in the dumps right now :pout:

Have you looked on kijiji?

yeah i have, the only one relatively near me is the guy who flaked and wanted wayy too much. so i'd rather not take the risk and either go with a fellow trusted tcc member, or a importer/shop. im debating the 1800 swap probably for another week or two and see, but i thought id give old tcc a chance too.

toronto jdm my friend.....

I checked online but its no different really. They have a zc dohc for 900 Canadian but that thing is slow and heavy. I guess ill call them tomorrow too though.

u should go in, they hook me up with better deals than online, im sure they can help u out. i rep them, good peoples

You think you can hook me up? I'm in Waterloo so its kinda far to go to get a price you know? Just see what the cheapest full B swap you can get for a 94 civic is if you can? That would be a HUGE favour!

LOL! well im not best friends with the guys there, but i do go there alot. i can ask for you if you want, but the point is this..... i much rather sell something to someone that has the intention of buying with cash in there hand rather than someone that calls/emails about a engine.

True lol. Well if you don't mind that would be awesome. And I am just calling for a quote but I would go in with straight cash to get it, its just the distance so I'd like to know a general idea first LOL

how much you have to spend bud?

I'd like to do 1500 for a full swap if I can

k let me see what i can do. i will PM u later tomorrow when they open

Okay cool. I can't explain to you how much help you've been! :)

i have a b series swap if u want it b16 motor and hydro tranny new clutch ecu obd1 1400 done deal call or text 4168256353 good luck

Ok, they are workin on a couple things with me and when i have news i will PM you.

But i was thinking last night about your problem you have. Why dont you buy a B20/B18 block for $400+/-(depending). and i have a link on a semi-built GS-R head. For under $1000 you have an engine, pick up a B16/B18 tranny for 500+/- and your set. For around $1500 you have a engine/tranny combo that will net you around the same power of a Type-r motor would. Just my thoughts...

I think he wants to get the car moving asap.

Indeed... poor man's R ftw! Building one myself. ;)

i would LOVE to buy a poor mans type r, but i really need a swap to put in within the next 3 or 4 weeks TOPS. and since i work full time 8-5 weekdays and 8-3 sat and sunday, i dont have time to put one together. and if your think i work plenty to afford more, im only 17 and only get paid 9.60/hour.

...min wage in ontario is 10.25 isnt it?

not for a student :pout:
