I'm in north county Oceanside... Got a 97 civic ex so far my plans are to get it in top notch shape for it from a auction so don't know much on it eventually do a b18 swap
Dammm well maybe one day we'll click were not to far and usually I'm in San Diego... What sucks about my car tho is I got it at the otay auction and it has a lot of work that I need to do... Damm near all the suspension boots, tie rods, axels... Lately it's been a pain
Clean looking engine! I was thinking of going turbo but I would need to rebuild my motor first since it has 224k so figured the better route would to go with a swap
I stayed d16, building it for boost

Start with the basics bro, get the maintenance done before anything else. Make sure the car is running right. I've had my car for about a year, so I just have a head start.
Thanks bro! Depends on your power goal, anything over 200ish needs forged rods. Y8 motors are cheap to build, and are readily available. You could pick up an old motor and rebuild it for high compression or build it for boost. It's up to you, i chose to not gamble with a junk yard motor and am riding the oem short block until my forged block is finished being built. My moto is do it right the first time. I'd only get a motor from Hmotors or rebuild one, but that's just me.
