    LOL, man. What's your budget? You're gonna need mounts and axles, ecu, engine, transmission, etc.

    This has been covered over and over on honda-tech.

    Do some research man

    and, civic type-r mounts will not work with you chassis. You're gonna need gsr, delsol (dual cam), or teg type-r mounts.

    b16b FTL, too much money for a comparable "gsr like" engine.

    B16B has no tq. Unless it's in a FEATHERWEIGHT chassis it's gonna be FAIL!
