    What could it be?

    I found a guy that is selling a 2002 civic extremely cheap. The problem is that the car will run for for a few miles, then will no longer accelerate. It is still running, just wont go anywhere. He says that if you shut the car off for a while and restart it it will run again. Just not very far...

    Future Build?

    I would LOVE to do an engine swap, but I keep getting conflicting opinions. But ya, everything I have heard about the D is that it is weak, since it is a SOC. As for it being a DD, yes it gets about 4 miles a day, more on the weekends. Its just that everyone I have talked to told me that weight...

    B18 and tranny.

    So I have to share this story. I own a 85 ford thunderbird elan. I didn't pick this car by choice and Ive been wanting to sell it or trade it. Since I happen to have access to an engine, I was considering finding a high miled civic that the body was still intact. That way I can drop in the low...

    B18 and tranny.

    Ok, thanks. What would you suggest that I do with a couple grand budget. I want to beat all the douche mustang drivers in my town (they're everywhere). Ive been looking up engines that I can afford, but I still don't know whats practical for me.

    If I drop in a B18 engine, can I use my stock transmission? (have a D series currently)

    tranny questions

    I have a standard transmission 2005 civic. On occasion in first gear (hot or cold) when accelerating slowly, the whole car vibrates very badly. I took it to a mechanic and he couldn't get it to do it, and said that everything looked normal.

    2005 ex

    im not sure yet, been google searching to find out my options. I am finding K20 engines and some are reasonable. Hard to trust internet sellers though. I did find one that was imported from Japan and was low miled.

    2005 ex

    Ya, one thing im definitely learning from reading other peoples post is don't go cheap. I know of some people in a VW club and from what I gather things like cheap performance chips are a scam at best. Also, I didn't know 7th gens were so horrible for working on. Glad I joined this site, im...

    2005 ex

    All right, I was getting kinda afraid of that. All the research I was doing was pointing to the fact that it is pointless and expensive to do anything to my current engine. So now in theory, Id want the engine out of an SI?

    2005 ex

    I don't know a lot, but what I don't know I have some friends that do. As for doing it myself, I would like too when possible so I can learn. As for budget, I can throw a grand at it now, and over the course of the year probably at least another couple grand. As for HP, I would like to get it...
