Hey guys, I'm real new to the car scene as well as civic knowledge.

I just bought a 2003 Civic EX Coupe MTranny (EM2 i think)

I want more power out of it, the stock just isnt cutting it for me. So i'm wondering if its possible to drop in a k20 series engine without too much fuss, or if it would be better and stick with a b20 series.

Any knowledge would be phenomenal!

As a side note, would it be worthwhile to go with tein ss coilovers? i want to lower, but i want to keep a nice ride comfort (or is this impossible and im folling myself! haha. . .)
Eventually i was thinking a kaminari lip kit, but we'll see. Thanks again guys!

-Matt

Well first you can find aton of posts on here about swaps just use the search botton!! K series is the ONLY swap we an get in our 7th gens, unless u have ALOT of $ and someone to do all of ur custom work, so ur idea of a b20 is gone, not only that b20s suck. anyway k swap. there are a ton of posts on everything u will need and there is a DIY post.. the main thins u will need are, motor, trani, shift linkage, mounts, sub frame, ECU, and there are quite a few other parts.. as for drop tein are good, i bought the megan racing full coilover suspention with 32 dampering ajustments for $800 and i love it.. but yah that shoud answer everything for you..
