right the cost is the only thing, why pay half of a d16z6 when i could just swap a d16z6 and have extra displacement and not have to worry about compression still being high 10's?

Valid point. Assuming the D16Z6 engine is in very good condition, making the swap would be the best way to go .

i don't wanna do a mini-me because of compression issues, i was originally going to, but theres really no way for me to keep it under 11.0:1 compression after the turbo. too much for a daily driver i want to be reliable. kit is not on yet, i'm still waiting on the guy selling me the intercooler and injectors. i should have them by the weekend. i'll be doing an adapter plate, and welding the back where u can't get the 4th bolt in. anybody know a good place to get an adapter plate though, i don't really have any way of drilling 3/4" steel (don't think the dremel can cut it this time lol)

yeah i know about the cluster, its a little inside joke because like 5 people have asked if i'd sell them that "JDM" cluster.
weiracing can make you a adpater plate

maybe, but i doubt the engine is gonna last long. plus its pointless for me to put money in an engine i know isn't gonna last long, a d16 is a much better engine for this project.
