What motor swap should I go with? It's going into an eg sedan DX. I will be did and also occasion mtn runs and road courses. I plan on keeping it Na. Whp target range would be around 140-160whp.
But if I find a deal on a jrsc, I just may get one. Lol
And any good sites to order my swap from?
I would really like to spend under $4k if possible. Prefer around $2500-$3k range.
I know itr/b16b is prolly pushing the price limit.

hmotorsonline.com they got great motors and good prices.id personally keep your d and turbo it, with 3000 bucks you could get and piece together a small turbo kit (maybe 5-7psi) and get arp head studs and a great tune. but for n/a best bang is a b18c or b16a/b with mild bolt ons..should be able to get a b16 motor/full swap for like 2800 or around there with shipping, gsr or type r ehh probably about 1000 more

Forget an old Jackson Racing setup. they are hard to find and a complete kit could cost you over half the price of one of these kits. keep the JDM D15B and get one of these bad boys

the thought has crossed my mind but with a complete stock non vtec jdm d15b, just how much whp will i squeeze out of it? LOL I couldn't find one person with this setup anywhere.
But I agree on the jrsc.

i voted for the jrsc, buts that because im biased lol.
finding one is tough though. i lucked out.
seriously though, i rarely see a b16b in egs, especially the sedans.
its like a b16a, that already has half the valvetrain upgrades done for you, plus a pnp.
as far as sites to order from go, hmotors is probably the best. i've used tigerjapanese out of canada, but i got lucky. alot of the feedback they get is really bad.
