Is it just the motor? Also give some more details ie mileage and any other knowledge would help.

the mileage is around 200,000 and hasnt been abused(red lined), but i want it so i can rebuild it. so pistons, sutds, and intake mani i wont need.

but i dont know if i should just go to the junk yards and find the parts one by one or buy a whole one?

- Fri Sep 03, 2010 12:32 am #211902 bro d series arent worth ne thing i would offer 250 and see what he says thats alot of miles for a swap but if your rebuilding it shouldnt be an issue

Never Say NO To The DOMO!!!!!

yeah the miles wont be an issue because im going to be replacing most if not all parts in it.

- Fri Sep 03, 2010 7:45 pm #212023 If all you are getting is the motor then dont offer more than 200. If you get a tranny along with it, then 250-300. D series motors are a dime a dozen now. I was trying to sell mine for 100 and no one wanted it.

- Sat Sep 04, 2010 4:59 am #212086 be sure the y8 intake mani is from a car with a MANUAL TRANSMISSION

Auto's have the IACV built into the throttle body. Manuals have the IACV in the same place on the IM as your car does now.

Also 99-00 y8 intake manifolds have some extra vac lines that you'll have to cap off and a tiny hole in each runner that you will need to block (cold start assist) so that you don't have a vacuum leak.


from the y8 mini-me thread: http://www.civic-eg.com/viewtopic.php?t=10




also...

or you can drill a hole in your intake tube, extend the wiring and install it there
