damn, they must be B18C1s or possibly LS/VTEC, either of those would be great to have, nice find.

good find, but what are they missing? manifolds, wiring harnesses, distibutors, ect? still, for $320 a great find.

If your going to make it a turbo app, look into get a b18b tranny (Integra LS non-vtec)

I know people that have turbo'd their GSRs and used an LS tranny because the gear ratio's are longer. So keep that in mind. You might find an LS tranny cheaper.

i don't know much about this but didn't B17's use a cable tranny so it would be the easiest to use? i think i'm wrong.

I don't know off hand my self. However, that is a possiblity considering that the b17 did come from the 2nd gen teg.

Only problem is, getting ahold of a b17 is another story!

Finding a b18a/b tranny will be easy.. try to get it out of a 2g teggy.. the 3g teg came with a hydro tranny.. the g2 came with cable which is alot easier to swap.. i beleive u can use your existing clutch cable( if u have a manual accord)

That is a pretty damn good price. The best I have been able to find is $700 (B18C1) for the complete running engine with wire harness and ECU, and all I would need to get is the tranny. But if I can get the B18b tranny for cheaper and it would be a little better then the B18C1.
