Im getting everything for $1200 excluding the engine mounts. Gonna put it in myself. Ill post pics later in the future. Hope to be boostin it later. Nick

fastcivicboy if that price is with the trans it sounds stolen to me, either way, good buy lol

I just did my swap.. all in all I spent about $2,500 on EVERYTHING. This is what I bought :
-B16a
-YS-1 Cable "LSD" Trans
-PR3 ECU
-SPEC racing 4 puck clutch , pressure plate
-ACT 8.8lb Flywheel
-Place racing shift linkage
-Place racing motor mount kit
-MSD coil and Cap
-Moroso 8.5mm wires ( hey MSD's weren't in stock )
Thats everything of course little expenses here and there for other parts I replaced before the motor went in .. i.e. timming belt , water pump , valve cover gasket , plus a few sensors. The motor , lsd trans ,and ECU was about $1,300 from the local JDM importer in my area.

you really have to plan ahead and do research therefore you wont waste time and money. I bought motors from Hmotorsonline. and they was being an ass. Bought a motor that is a lemon. Tranny had problems, blown head gasket. So i spent like $3800 total for a rebuilt tranny and replaced the head gasket, resurface the head. I would just bought a Type R motor with that amount. So do a research before attempting to do a swap.
