@@ksisjdm great build, very clean and one of a kind. I went the same way with my Integra, but only b-series. I invested about $15k over 3 years, and it was well spent cash. I wanted to see just how much hp a b18b could make reliably. It's just as you said some of my parts are inexpensive ($150-$350) and some are very expensive ($900-$1300).when building a car it's like you said, take your time, don't rush it, and don't go super cheap because it won't be reliable. My b18b makes 468hp on E85 and I haven't had any problems with it for 2 years. Alot of the guys out there have to realise if your going to build a high hp and reliable car, you MUST! take your time, do extensive research on your build, and do general maintenance consistently. As far as racing is concerned, might run my Integra once a month, my favorite is taking freeway on ramps at 3rd gear at 9200rpm🤗😎😏. So to reinforce what you were saying in the video, take your time, save your money, do some research, and build your car right the first time, and you won't have a blown engine, and you will be able to enjoy your build for years.🤔🤔😁🤗

Why didnt u just buy a acura rsx type s or acura tsx. They are both better looking cars and if the car and swap costs 3000-4000 you can just buy the rsx type s or tsx and get a k20 with the rsx type s or k24 with tsx. I dont understand when people swap civics when you can just buy these better cars with k engines already in them and not have to do all the labor just for a k engine.

Lol because the car wouldnt perform anywhere how the civic performs. I guess you have no understanding of the difference the chassis makes.

Great video! You really took the time to explained it well. Like you said, you really don't need to do everything you have planned for your project at once. I had that mentality with my first Honda (ep3) and I ended up owning it for 2 years and not doing anything with it. Buying your bolt ons, harness, ecu, ems, cables, shifter box, etc used can definitely help cut costs. I was one of the lucky ones and bought my k swap unfinished in a rusty gutted hatch shell. Now it's in a coupe. Anyone can do it. Most of you fellers from the states have a great used market for Honda parts. Take advantage of it!!(If you want to do it on a budget) Btw I see you got that ram header installed! Looks badass!!

Thank you dude! Keep building!

I agree about the quiet exhaust part. I know my motor is down peak HP compared to other comparable B series builds due to me keeping the cat, ac, and power steering and using a smaller ITR catback. But the performance is good enough for me and its nice to have it quiet unless Im revving to 8k on the street. On the K swap part, every time I look into it, I won't be happy with a budget build and would end up doing something similar, but not that crazy, my costs would probably be on trying to make it look like it came from the factory with AC PS, etc still on it. I kinda did fall down that path on my b18b1 to b18c1 swap, and even then Im still not happy with things that I keep changing around.

Yup, some of us like to go overboard with it and rack up a bill like this. Notice how almost nobody approaches a K swap like the old school B swap. B series people will use all OEM used junkyard pieces, rig up things to work, massacre OEM wiring and so on. Most K swaps are done with much more attention to detail which is costly. It would be expensive to do a B swap with all the details attended to. But most dont do that because then they would be dumping K series amounts of money and ending up with much less power

Thieves are bad in Houston specially in the honda game.Going k can be kind of cheap or stupid high it all matter what u want when I went k24a2 in my 93 teg I got alot off stuff from junkyard motor shifter box cables ecu all together 600 bucks but my complete swap was about 2000 dollars running but that's no labor price I work for Honda so I did everything myself.Most expensive part probably was getting k-tuned in my ecu I always said I can upgrade parts later just wanted a running car but k is the best bang for buck if u want to stay all motor the power and torque is crazy for a 4 banger.

Never ask a man how cost his built, respect from Spain.

Holy shit dude, that engine bay is gorgeous. I have a 2005 Civic EX and a 2003 Honda CR-V (K24 engine) sitting in my driveway, and I want to swap them, drive train, knuckles, all that. Rebuild the engine, probably with some forged components, h-beam rods, crank, etc. and get the head from a TSX, ported and polished. I'd like to stay N/A, as much as I love to have a turbo, I just don't care to deal with it. The little Civic would be more than fast enough with just a built engine in it. I want it to be bulletproof. But for now, I'm mostly focusing on tightening up the suspension in it with bracing throughout, adjustable camber, aftermarket control arms, and polyurethane/delrin bushings throughout, and like you, keep the outside of the car looking completely stock other than it being lowered a bit and some aftermarket wheels.

Hey thanks for making this video man. I have always wanted to work on a Honda tuner but was caught up with muscle. This video was perfect for what I'm trying to figure out right now except one thing. I want to know if I can build a fresh k series motor from scratch in my spare time before buying the car itself as I do not have the space for it yet other than possibly building the motor. I am going to get a 6th gen Honda civic coupe regardless of model and basically clean it up, have it painted, and drop a engine I build or rebuild in it. Thing is I'm a body work guy mostly and the extent of my engine experience is pulling a 68 mustang 302 by myself, tearing it down, and then selling the car and pieces when I moved. Then I did a clutch switch on a 2002 mustang GT, but other than rebuilding a carb and painting and restoring some engine parts I'm still learning. But I have to plan the vision out so its realistic as a spare time hobby for me. I am already planning to take apart and rebuild smaller engines before tackling this one and studying more but do you know a k series that fits all those models or one that fits most so I can at least widen the spread a bit and build an engine in the meantime once I learn more? Or another engine that's fairly universal and similar? Any guidance and sources are much appreciated.

Im only 16 and im saving up and planning on building a civic, i’ve always liked them, im just new to the building factor of them. This was the only video I could find that gave me a really good insight on what i should do. And of course im not going for engine looks, just fast and reliable. Also im not sure what a good motor is to start out with on a budget. I was think J series or D series but im unsure what will give me the most power on a budget. I’ll take any help just so i can understand it all lol.

You mention budget and then mention 2 engine series that are VASTLY different. There's nothing cheap about building a civic with a J series V6....and a D series isnt fast and reliable without putting a lot of money into it. First off, figure out what your actual "budget" is, then you can make a list of optional routes to take. Always keep this statement in mind: You can only choose 2 of these three options... fast...reliable...cheap. Which ever 2 you choose, the 3rd option doesnt exist. So you want a fast and reliable car, it's not going to be cheap, period. So establishing a budget is critical for you before moving forward.

First video I watch and thanks for the feedback 🙏🏼

Thanks dude. The old "pick 2" rule applies.... Fast Reliable Cheap You can only have 2 and lose the third.

totally agree with this guy takes time to perfect something that you want. Time and money .

So straightforward, you are really cool :) enjoy the ride. (regards from Switzerland)

I love that 96-00 civic platform but the sedan only and only with a h22 with the h2b and LS 5TH gear.

"How many people got their hood up all day long" now thats gold right there. But this engine bay is so clean im trippin just lookin at it.

This is a great video brother any swap can be expensive or cheap it just depends on what you want how you want it and how fast do you want to have it. So your right it’s a vague?.

If you're using that base model engine, I really would try to find a 4.7fd 6 speed transmission to make up for the lower power output of the base k20a3 engine. You could use the base trans, but it's really not worth it unless your turbocharge that car.
