$3k for b16 swap + parts + you do the labor
$1k for jdm frontend + random goodies
$1k for paint

you can cut corners (getting good deals and/or buying used parts) and get everything done for even cheaper

i mean, i could get my dad's b16 for $1,000 and then mounts and shit, it'd only be like $1,300-$1,500 for the b16....

and i'd love to get a jdm front end and paint it, but idk if i see myself spending that much on that shit... idk, thats just me.

i mean, we talked about it... lol. it'd be awhile, but he's always wanted a b18c5, and i've always wanted a b16. he can get a c5 for $3,500 or sell me his swap and get one for $2,500 which is pretty cheap for a c5...

but like i said, it'd be awhile cause $2,500 aint no chump change.

lol yea, but if you're speed shifting, and taking the b16 to 8200rpm everytime, then you'll never get out of vtec after 2nd gear...

idk, it's just sumthin bout how that shit feels everytime i drive my dads car, makes me want it more and more. it just feels so much stronger.

turbo zc > b16

revving is fun, but as you remember from my dyno (and know from driving your pops car), you dont get any power until u have to shift again LOL
