Took my '95 civic to the shop yesterday for what I thought was a bad head gasket, leaking a shit load of coolant into the motor.

The guy tells me today that I got a crack in the block.

I need some advise on what to do with it.

-replace the z6 bottom end
-pay them to swap in a B-series
-Junk the car
-Sell it as is

What do you guys think I can get for the shell?

I cant do any work myself 'cause I dont have a place to it, dont even have a driveway to put into.

Its a '95 EX with a stock D16z6 with 180,000 miles on it.
Ive got some Tein Flex coilovers that are in pretty old condition an HKS exhuast, the car is in good shape overall.

New cars I was considering:

-2004-2005 Accord coupe, V6, 6speed
-2003-2005 Subaru Impreza WRX

 

slap another single-cam in it. those things are a dime a dozen.

 

depends on your budget.

 

CRV B20B swap and call it a day.

 

x2

They line the rivers with em around here.

 

fixed

 

You know what I meant. B20Z with a gsr tranny. Easy and fun.

 

Z6's are cheap. Too bad you have to pay someone else for the work.

 

I'd go with a d15b vtec from Japan. Any d16z6 is gonna have too many miles on it.

 

just throw out the engine and cut a hole in the floor and push with your feet. super weight reduction ftw.
