I purchased a 93 Integra LS in the summer , loving it, but its just not quick enough.. Now I have read the other threads about buying a ITR motor or just putting a b16 V-Tec head on the b18 block. So im basically asking the same question , but I have a 91 B18 motor and tranny sitting at home. What would be the cheapest? Build that 91 b18, or go out and buy a new motor? From the prices that I have seen, a Type R motor and tranny would cost around $4000 (from Japan). But would a H22 ( JDM around $1650 - $2000) or a K20 basic (JDM from $1200)be better options then mentioned above? Im new to Honda motors and just want to know whats the most bang for my buck. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
