out going love working a car doesnt matter what it is as long as it has wheels and a motor i will make it work. i love broken cars love that feeling i get when a motor comes back to life
if your lookin for that much power,i would opt to buy another vehicle such as a gsr or civic si....with those those vehicles your already at around 150hp give or take,throw on some supporting mods or a basic turbo kit and you could easily make 180-250whp
you could swap in a 1.6L DOHC non-vtec ZC...which came outta of the 86-87 integras....or with alittle more work a b16a,its all up to you and how much power you wanna make
no its not very hard to do a swap....it helps to have a helms manual and do some research before you go at it though.I would suggest reading up on Honda-tech.com there are plenty of threads with info on how to swap motors and if you run into any problems there are lots of people that can help point you in the right direction.you will learn alot if you do the swap yourself instead of having someone do it for you....
