Guys, i'm thinkin of gettin another car. After crashing my car into that fence i see how much our cars are worth to the insurance company(thank god i didnt have to deal with them), but the estimate was right around $2000, just by side swiping my car on a fence! The insurance company would have totaled my beloved 4 door, but i didnt report it. Anyway, I'm definetly gonna get a 5th gen hatch, hopefully by the end of the year and prep it for a B16 or B18c swap. Now to my question, which of these swaps is more econimical and which would i be able to get the most bang for my buck out of? Oh yeah, dont worry, i am planning on keeping the 4 door and fixing it up, i figure i wouldnt be able to get jack shit for it, so it'll run till it dies! I love my 4g

For your fifth gen hatch go for the 3G GS-R motor, it bolts right in and generates 170hp I think. Keeping you within the 13-14's which is awesome
Heavily modded would be awesome too, of all cars I would persoannly go for a 5th gen hatch, if you havnt seen it theres a video of one beating a Ferrari F355 and another beating a 2001 Corvette...
Nuff said!

B18c or b18c1 would be the best choice. You can't beat the torque of the b18 and it should make that 5th gen hatch scoot. I would try to pick up a CX model.
A guy I know has this setup in a 92 CX
B18c1
Port and Polished Head
Type-R cams
DC header
Z10 front crossmember
Hondata Stage 2 ECU
New fuel pump
15" GSR wheels powdercoated black
Koni Yellows and Eibach springs
The car is so fast. I can just imagine what a little weight reduction and a set of better cams would produce.
