You can stroke the J32 to a 3.5 with all Honda parts for a 50-60 WHP gain. Headers on a J32 to 28-32 WHP.

So to say its a waste of time and money is funny to me. Esp with having no knowledge of the potential of these motors.

And how many swapped b series civics are there?. . . . . ALOT! How many v6 civics are there?. . . . way less! To say its not cost effictive is one thing but to say its pointless is dumb. Maybe some people just dont want to be like every other turbo'ed b-series civic.

The amount of money you'd spend on mounts and wiring/engine managment would be more then I have in my entire car. And if I want to gain power, I can just turn up the boost

If your doing a J Swap to be different, you definitly shouldn't own a Honda. Your in the wrong game. EVERYTHING has been done.

Function>Form

That doesn't mean anything. You might have a cheap car

i'd rock the shit out of a v6 civic. it might be expensive, but its way more rare than any other civic. it may have been done before, but not much. i think it'd be worth it if you have the money.

Think outside of the box you claimed everything had been done in the honda game but that guy raised the bar if you realy think that is pointless and boring you must live a crazy life smoking vettes in a civic sounds fun as hell to me...... boring lol!! As for the v6 civics sure you can just turn up the boost but the v6 is running NA how long are you realy going to last before your dumping more money in your car for a rebuild... If your just worried about being coste effective you are in the wrong game lol ask anyone

People have been doing the V6 swap for a couple years now. The bar was raised a while ago. Its just gotten more popular recently since Hasport has released mounts now. I am cost effective and it seems like I'm in the right game for that. Ask anyone on here. I find crazy deals on everything I buy. If I wasn't worried about money, I sure as hell wouldn't be driving a Honda. I've got over 7,500 miles on my motor and its been running almost 15psi, daily driven. And I don't drive my cars easily. It sees 1 bar everyday. Even if I do have to do a rebuild in the future, the cost will still underweigh the price of a J swap. Hell, I could probably do 3 rebuilds and still save money.

Fuck it... I'm going to do something RARE AND COOL!

13B in the CIVIC... wait! that was done, but that faggot kept it FWD.

Maybe like I have mentioned to people... VQ35 motor in the back of an EK hatch. Decent power and torque and RWD.
