i know for a fact the B18 will fit because i have seen one,

but, to pass bar it has to be same year or newer engine, at least in cali.

its easier and cheaper to do a k series and you can get more power out the k series

i would most deff do a k20a2 swap

the B16 would be no good in our cars, they are only good in like CRX's.. b18 can be done, its gunna cost u a bit more in the long run cuz you will have to have custom mounts made since no one makes them for our cars.. k swap is the way to go, the b series wont be around 2 much longer.

well yeah i heard that..

k20 is an expensive! isnt it?

this is a federal EPA law. it states that no older engine can be put into a car that is newer than the year the engine was produced. i.e. you can't even legaly put a 2001 d17 into a 2002. it is all about emmsions. if you get caught with an older engine, b18, h22, etc. first they TAKE your car, not impound, but TAKE. then you can be assed a fine up to $10,000 plus up to 6 years in federal prision. stick with a k20 or k23. it'll save you problems in the future.

k23? is new for me... post more about that

K23 is the new turboed engine that comes with the RDX.

for your car it would have to be fom the k series line. no other engines can go in due to strict emission laws. read up before you jump the gun.

Best thing to do would be a k swap, a k23 would be nice but no one makes mounts for it.. A k24a2 (TSX) with a rsx s 6 spd trans would be the best for a em2.

weren't there 2001 honda preludes? so if you have an 01 vic you can swap an h22 in? plus there were a few 2001 integras no? so you could technically do that. but yeah, $$ is an issue since everything will have to be custom.

Josh95

Yes preludes had h22's in them so i guess you could swap it. On the other hand integra's never had H series engines in them only B series . like i said before you could do a k swap and be better off better power and a lighter engine then a H and about the same wieght as a B

aye, i know they had the b series, im just saying that there were a few 01 integras. so if you really want and have an 01 you could throw a b in there, but i do agree that the k is the best way to go.

And here's 2 people rolling around in there stock D series..

so hard to get decent power out of a b with simple mods

familycar

iTrader: (4)

i begg to differ. there is plenty of power to be made in a b series.

come to think of it you could also swap in a b20 from a crv c0onsidering they were also produced in 01. b20z makes good power and if you swap a few parts around from an ls motor you can make good power. not to mention doing a headswap from a b18c or b16 and little mods can make 200whp on a b20

jester444

I don't think you gotta worry about that one, amigo.

ricergribbs

iTrader: (3)

people tend to go for the k24 out of the crv's for the extra displacement/power over the b20.

familycar

iTrader: (4)

i realize this but the op doesnt. he wants it done cheaply. even though we both know that in the long run the the k series would be the best

jester444

I think it was more of a idle inquiry than anything else. There's a reason people don't habitually swap B-series into EM's and ES's.

You could just drive the Civic for what its worth and buy a fast car..

turbo the d17 if you're not planning on adding more power to the k20, you'll save your self a sh*t load of money doing turbo for about the same power.. i think you'll be happy w/ d17 t3 turbo or even with a smaller t25 will spoolquick
