i drive a 98 civic ex. first, id like to know what kind of motor i have. 2nd, id like to know what the best motor would be to swap in it. include specs if you can. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

 
He means that w/e you put in it won't matter b/c his car will prolly eat you Civic for breakfast lunch and dinner and crap out the rims after its done....

But seriously ... i would go with a B18 for a civic.... if you had an Accord like me then you could go H22A //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/naughty.gif.94359f346c0f1259df8038d60b41863e.gif .... but B18 Turboed will work well... you'd smoke the imports in town.....

there are different types of b18's

 
A bottle of diet coke..........................it has 2.0ltrs of displacement and taste good.
i would go with Pepsi one but you have a good idea too //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

 
right now you have a d16, which is worthless. you could swap in a b18c5 (itr motor) but that wouldn't be cost effective. i'd go for a b18 either from an ls being as they usually go for cheaper and are great to turbo (forget the specific code) or a b20. of course you can always go for a K block or H block but i dont see the point really. if you're going to spend that much money midas well just buy a real sports car
