[JiFaTT]

i really need here.i got an eg3 hatchback,engine still 1.6 single cam no vtec.last week my engine overheat until smoke come out from my hood.now cannot start oredi.

so,i bring my car to bengkel and they give me 3 option

1-overhaul my stock engine,cost rm2000++.he said takut banyak benda kena tukar.

2-change my engine only.engine cost rm1000,labour cost rm1000+.its da cheapest option...but ill still be driving da stock engine

3-change to vtec.labour cost rm1500,half cut b16a rm6000,b18c rm7000,1.6 vtec auto rm3500.

which one should i choose??better tukar engine asal or overhaul?if i overhaul,how can i squeeze some juice out of my stock engine?what should i change??
if i chose to change to vtec,is it better to buy half cut or buy saparately?is it much cheaper?i dun mind spanding much time on it.

so sifu,please help me.thanks...

JiFATT.....

If you're4 just looking for an engine suitable for daily driving with "now and then" hunger for speed.....then a stock B16A would suffice

On the other hand, if u're the "pedal to the metal" type.....B18C is the way to go.

At the end of the day, like syiokGILER mentioned : how much you're willing to spend ?

the price u stated there quite expensive i think. u can get it cheaper than that.

yeah... try looking around... you could probaly save around ++RM1.5K from what you have stated. Potentially even more...!! scout around first, refer the "reputable workshop" thread in the honda forum here and ask around...

yeah,actually i hvn't survey habis yet the price.just 1-2 kedai potong around here.
can i get better price if i buy saperately?if i buy half cut,theres a lot of stuff i dun really need.
