Budge was the main reason I didn't go B16. Secondary reason was simplicity. I'm really not looking for another project car, I wanted to get the civic back on the road ASAP, and figured it would be simplest to replace the engine in kind. Locally the B16 was an extra $500 minimum.
If I hadn't wanted to get the car back on the road ASAP I could haves spent the time to find a deal on an engine, but that not what I wanted.
First body mods will be to remove all the stickers my sister had plastered on the car. remove everything even the license plate frame. I can't stand that tacky stuff.
