im thinking about buying a 5th generation (92-95) honda civic hatchback, and i was wondering how much it would cost to swap the stock engine with a jdm b18c (type r) engine. i dont have any tools and barely any knowledge of cars so i would have to pay someone to do it for me.|||without the engine, most shops will charge about 3500 just for the labor, not including the swap kit and cost of engine/tranny/ecu, your, in all honestly going with the Legit Type R engine is a waste of money, the engine package ive seen the cheapest one was for 4500 bucks, your better off with the money your gonna spend, is to get a GSR and have it race built, a used GSR setup in the US is under a grand, and its only 30 less hp i believe then a type R, if that, the money your spending on that engine is the money it would cost to upgrade all the internals and have the head rebuilt, youll come out with about 60 more hp then the Type R engine since all thats different on them are pistons, camshaft, and header|||check some local shops and see how much they charge for engine swaps and order a crate engine online and have it drop shipped.
