Unless its a great price, I'm not interested. You live about 15 minutes from me.
whats your price range
yeah..do you have motors for broke people..lol
.
sorry can't say that I do
that's cool dude I'm not pushing a sale on you.
price?
nothing
how about you post a price
noone can commit if they dont know how much they are investing. for all i know you are selling this engine for $50. in which case iam in.
if you can get me a 86-87 b20 with 5speed for under $500 i may be interested.
lmk
you want to knw the funny thing about all this...it cost more to SHIP the motors back here to teh states then they actually pay for them...lol...like a B20a might cost $100us in Japan...then another $$$$ to ship it back here...lol
nothing
b20aTURBO is the one selling these motors. he wants 1200 but he said he'd lower the price if I get a group of 4 people together.
Thats all I'm trying to do.
how much lower?? and what is so special about the b20? is that the dohc version of ours now?
'honda makes people happy'![]()
I don't know how much lower b20aTURBO will go. the b20 is a dohc non vtec 2.0 litre motor with 160hp stock. they came in the jdm version of our cars. good motor to do a swap with without having to modify the engine bay to make it fit. I'll email him again and see if I can't get the price for a group buy of 4 people.
if i was to buy the b 20 what else would i need? computer, mounts. i have no idea what i would be doing!! everything is stock in a 87 dx 5 spd.
Tranny, mounts... I can't remember what else. You wouldn't need an ECU from what I hear.
just to make sure, is your car fuel injected, or carbed. If carbed you would need ecu, wiring harness. also with FI you might need a different ecu but I could be wrong.
I'd be very interested in about 3 wks when my next paycheck comes in. If I haven't found a good body, I will probably look for an engine (like a b20) first. I thought they came with trannies... someone was saying 2 were auto and 2 were 5spd from what they remembered. Another problem is that I don't think ANYONE here is interested in anything bout a 5-speed. I know I'd be interested in buying, but not an auto.
Find out what else we need. I always thought you needed a whole mounting kit (a few places make them for $1000-$1500) Maybe those are for newer models of the JDM b20??
Someone knowledgable must be brought to the thread. If I can use my a20 tranny and ECU let us know (I'd be planning on rebuilding mine to hold way more power anyway, but regardless)... if everything will fit, and a $1100 investment is all there is, hands down (obviously besides labor, connecting exhaust etc), then I'd more than be willing to get a motor and drop it in myself.
Looking forward to a turbo project might be sidetracked getting naturally aspirated power from a b20... I could work with that. Someone? anyone?!
bury the bach.

A very knowledgable prson about this swap would be YK86 he has done this swap and knows what you need.
