Were you by any chance at 6000+ rpm when it blew?

[GT40FIED]

I'd go with the swap. Like hell I'd pay $12K+ for either of those cars. The Lude was ok, though.

ya how did u blow ur engine?:o yea the lude is the only decent thing there i would buy outa the three u want...:yes:

i was driving along and i noticed my temp gauge was going up, i thought it went up in temp cause i knew i have a short, and the temp gauge would go up when i push the cigarette lighter in and would drop as soon soon as it was relaesed. well thats how it started and soon i realised that the temp gauge was now telling me i had a full tank of gas i was scared, cause its not supposed to be that high. i stopped, turned off the car. i popped the hood, and to my dismay, i notice smoke/steam coming from below the distributor ( i thought i fried something), but i looked closer and realised that my tranny had water/oil/antifreefe pouring over it, and then i checked my oil and noticed that it resembled choclate milk.

so today i go and get an estimate on to how much damage i did( just for the hell of it)
-blown head gasket
-cracked block
-timing belt
-water pump
-new radiator
-misc parts
-labor
for a grand total of 4326.50(give or take alot since, shit actually it will be a lot more than that, since this is only an estimate)

so ya buy urself a whole new engine then...or a new car...up to u...for that price to fix urs...u could get a Bseries and build it a little...pending where u buy it from...some places are cheap some arent...that sucks man...good luck though..:pukey

[pdiggitydogg]

definately new engine time...or at least new used short block.
If you need a replacement radiator, I have one that I'd like to get rid of

[AkimboStylee]

no i found a 98 si at a dealership, and they will take my car as it is

[MissJDM]

That Integra in the link is :pukey .

That prelude is kinda sexy.

Motor swap is a good deal in my opinion based on where I live. I sold my b18c1 for $3100 complete. Yours will cost a tad bit more [not even $100] and comes with warrenty AND is an SirG.

Keep us posted!

Once again, that Integra is fuggly. :pukey

[Mischief]

Ok I'm sorry, I love my 'teggy and wouldn't trade it for the world (alright I lied, I'd give it up in a heart beat for a 240 or 300) but I wouldn't pay 12 grand for one. I'd go with the motorswap or that SI

[IALuder]

that integra isnt ugly. i kinda like it. wither way i wouldnt pay 12K for it. the lude is nice, if you dont mind high insurance.

get a B16 or a B18B and trubo it. you could do that for less then 4300. people around here are doing that. we have 2 89 civic hatchbacks running with B18Bs and Trubo. spent less then 3600$.

[pdiggitydogg]

you mean a 99 si?

[AkimboStylee]

99 si, not 98, soory, button was next to eachother. and well i talked to my parents today, and they are going to my civic down by them and my mom gave me the title to her car, well kind of a car.
2004 PT Cruiser
5-spd
2.4L Turbo.
dont let it fool you the bitch is quick, and i am saving up a complete gsr with turbo swap into my civic, and turn it into a track car.
