secondly from JK Auto for $900 for a ZC SOHC which is said to be the same as a D16A6 which means:

- found in: 1988-1991 Honda Civic Si, CRX Si, Civic Wagon RT4WD or
1988-1995 Honda Civic Shuttle RT4WD (UK/Europe/Asia/AU/NZ) or

Incase you are wondering why i'm switching my engine. I've talked to my mechanic and a few others and buddah and my engine is toast.
Being a delivery guy I need my car working A.S.A.P.

So tonight I'm taking my car to one of these for a swap so it'll be done by saturday.

So which one do you ppl think I should get? I'm going to look at the poll and comments and I hope to get lots of feed back in the next few hours.


Thanks a lot for the help.
Yuki.


Edit:

I forgot to mention. The D16Y7 from DefCon has 120,000 KM on it I was told.

And the ZC by JK they said has 50,000km-60,000km on it, I was told.

it'd get a d16y7 because its a fresher/younger motor.

Just to boot around town from A to B, Y7.

1100 for a Y7, i have one complete for 450. tranny and engine have 88k. tranny is hydro, comes with linkage, shifter, axles, mounts, intake and exhaust mani's, etc... COMPLETE

1100 comes installed. So to save himself the hassle to pick up and deliver it to the shop, maybe it is best to have the shop worry about that and get the car back on the road ASAP.

1100$ installed + probably with a little bit of warranty is a decent deal.

imported_YoungSir

True, didn't know it came installed... go for it bro

imported_t_dot_SiR

defcon will do good work on you car... $1100 is a pretty good deal

Well me boyos it's now 3:30 a.m. and I've just come back from having it towed to DefCon. So hopefully on saturday we'll see just how good of a job will be done by them.
