I was wondering if there was any shop in the Toronto or GTA area that does this sort of work.

I own a 97 Civic Si. Does anyone know what the going price is for this type of converstion????

Thanks Guys.

Might as well do a swap while you're at it.

Scott from ClubSi does it.

Hes in MIlton though. He did mine great work.

imported_gatherer

the afiliates page is full of shops that can do this

Konig

I didn't notice a link to his site and\or contact number. Please PM me with the information.

Konig

Your obsoulutley correct. I have made a few phone calls. Thanks

Konig

That's what I was thinking. What engine should I go with and how much cash are we talkin' ????

Konig

Do you think that I should swap it to a b16a2 engine????

Scott.. never replied back ... to any of my emails he replied once ... quoting me at $1000 ... but that was it never replied back... sent him mails about 10 times .. but no replies since

well hes a busy guy, but always responds back to my PM's. Never had a problem with scott.

I sent you a PM.

I have been calling around and I found a shop out in Guelph that recommended that I change the engine too.

He went on to say that to convert the tranny over to standard using the stock engine 97 Si engine it would be about $2700.00.

For him to convert the engine to a B16A2 -JDM with standard tranny it would be $4000.00 tax in. The math on this one is evident.

New Engine and standard tranny here I come.....

I'll be before long

Wow $2700 wtf?

I paid $1500 for my conversion and got a 99 D16Y8 + manual tranny dumped in my 94 civic.

Konig

Yeah the guy mentioned that it was expensive because the 97 has some sort of issue regarding mounts. A few shops have told me the same thing, so I know he isn't Bullshittin me.

imported_loudsubz

well what did he tell you about the mounts? I dont think its true because I had a prob with my tranny moutn because you need to buy a MANUAL tranny mount from honda and weld it in, I had to get that done on mine.

Konig

I think a few other things have to be relocated within the engine compartment. To be 100% honest with you I kinda tuned out when he explained it.

I was just amazed that it will only cost me $4000 for a better engine and standard tranny.

I thought engine swaps were huge dollars.
