I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

need some opinions on motors.
ok i will be picking up my first civic next week. it is a 95 coupe dx. ok i'm new to hondas and i've been reading up on them everyday and know that there are alot of motors that can be swapped in. I do know what i'm doing with the car cosmetically and in the interior. Motor wise i have no idea. I plan on eventually boosting the car, but while i save for the turbo i will add bolt ons. I'm not going overboard on power, goal is 300-350 when it is boosted. just dont know which is the best motor to get me there. thank you in advance for help, and i already know what munsters opinion will be 
Re: need some opinions on motors.
300-350 is very doable reliably on a Bseries. A GSR w/ a medium t3/t4 is going to get you there on probably only like 9-10psi. Boob has like 75k miles on his turbo LS at 262whp right now. He doesn't beat the car every day he drives it, but tracks it pretty often.
And I know you were waiting for it....I know where you can find a LS motor w/ a tapped oil pan ready to go!

Re: need some opinions on motors.
i think im going with a gsr but the deal on your motor might be very enticing should the money become available
Re: need some opinions on motors.
go with the ls I have a gsr but for the price you may as well pickup the ls you wont be dissappointed
Re: need some opinions on motors.
Turbo + LS = fun. Hell, add a vtec head if you're bored. Make some more on top end then.
