    What about this motor? *pics*

    Would this be worth putting in my car? I can get the whole car for dirt cheap......I would put the motor in my car and part out the rest. But if the motor wouldn't be good for my car then I wouldn't wanna bother buying it.






    Of course I'd have my cousin go with me to look at it, he's my certified mechanic

    I guess so.. You still need mounts , axles, etc.. engine has some potential , plus lots more bolt ons than an a20

    b18's are good motors. But like Matt said, it will take much more than just the motor to get it to fit into the 3G. But once you do it, it will be so worth it.

    Alright. **starting to get even more serious** Where would I get these axles from? I couldn't use the ones from the car? And I know about the motor mounts, that's not a problem. Swapping the motor would be easy for me, my cousin owns a body shop. What else would I need?

    so I'd be looking at spending $1500 just for parts to get the motor to work for me? And the harness for the B16, that would work for the B18?

    Swaps are not cheap. That's when you find out how serious you actually are.

    ok, but why would I need to buy one when you just said that I could combine the one that I have with the one that comes with the motor?
    Is there anything else that you listed that I would not need to buy? What can I use from the two cars combined instead of buying new shit?

    take what ever u can.. complete swap.. u can always sell or trade the spare parts.. But u keep the ecu , engine.. i dont remember exactly, But if the tranny is cable than u need that. Ur going to need to buy the Axles, Shift Rod & Mounts.. The wire harness is ur choice... Ur going to need ur a20 harness & B18a harness. But if u know a shop or a friend that can do the wire harness conversion, than u wont need to pay place racing to do it for you.. those are the pics of the shift rod

    Well if I buy this I'm gonna get the whole car, so I'll get the motor, ecu, tranny, everything! My cousin can do the wiring of the harnesses for me, so I can save there. I guess I'm gonna go and buy me a car next weekend.
    Thanx for the help man, anything else that anybody can think of?

    Pay like $50 for it just tell them that the welds on the intake manifold are blown or say that it's only good for small parts. Make it seem like the engine is crap and that it's broken and won't work. hehehe then you can get the good deal.
