    Should i swap my f22 into this then?

    All this time i've been giving my parents a hard/rough time with me wanting to do what i want. Pissing them off, disappointing them, disrespecting them, Lie to them, and not listening to their advices...
    And yet, today....
    i just got a new car from them.They DO know about my accords' situation but still...Red 5spd civic EX is what they got me. Needs some tune up here and there but still looks nice. I was thinkin' the whole time that i dont deserve this car at all. I know i deserved with what i have still: The crappied-up accord that randomly dies (still)...i deserve with it randomly dying on me to piss me off, embarassing me with its rattling radiotor fan along with exhaust, and with my foked up paint job. I was expecting to soup up my white accord instead. But man, i know if i just fixed the white cord, it wouldn't have cost as much as the new civic i got....i really dont deserve this...parts just needed replacement on the accord. And shit..i really dont wanna sell the accord too. Too many memories and plans that was set for it. Now...man, idk. I mean i DON'T want them to give the red civic back, I DO want it. It just feels wrong to me. i think they intentionally did this to me just to make me feel regretful on the things i done. And some of you know. Damn, i was thinkin off turbocharging my accord too without anyone knowinig. See, i think im the kind of guy that iSn't "Plan" material...cuz everytime i make myself a plan...it fucks up. Like Planning to put turbo in my white accord and such. IDK, i have to do a tune up on the civic before i am to soupin' it up.

    ...BUT like my title says...Should swap my f22 into my undeserved 99' civic? Of course i mean that IF i were to swap since i still have the cb7.. i dont wanna sell my cb7...but i have to.

    Swapping an F22 into a EK Civic would be way more hassle than it's worth.

    In addition to needing $300-500 mounts, you're not gaining any HP. You'd have to convert the car to OBDI which is a hassle among other things. You'd also more than likely have to change the whole shifter assembly. Not worth it IMO.

                  I'm sorry to say but, I can relate to your situation totally. I know how you are feeling, I was there. I'm 25 (May 5) now and this CB7 I have is the first honda and only car I have and that I bought with my own money. My parents, when I was in school, for my first car gave me an "89" Mazda 626 that died on me later in my school years. Then my parents and I bought me a "94" Altima that I totalled shortly after that for racing and doing other stupid sheit that I regret now because that was such a great car. It didn't have any mods though and during this time I was really getting into imports. I was messing up with my parents and they didn't feel like I deserved to drive. Plus with all the legal sheit I got myself involved in didn't help the situation. Then the laws suspended my license for some other BS for 2.5 years. I dug myself a big ass hole. I had my eyes set on getting a CB7 for a long time but, my parents never got me what I wanted. I've always wanted a manual, they got me auto. When I finally got my license back and saved some money, I bought myself a 91 DX sedan model CB7 for about $1500. It's an auto because my parents refused to teach me how to drive a stick. I guess it was because they knew of me racing. From then on I decided that I wanted to do things myself. My parents don't know anything about cars and they don't support me fixing this older CB7. That's when I started working on my ride. This is something that I've always wanted to do and it makes me happy everytime I get a new part for my car. You have to be independent if you want to do the things you want. Give yourself a chance because it will take sometime and money. I'm pretty sure you will get there. I did and I'm still working on it. Don't ever look back because you can't change the past just learn from it. Work harder for a better future. There are more brighter days to come. Hell, are you coming to our meet and bringing that civic when you come? Work with what you got, I hear those can be badazz too.

                    NO. B18C5, or even a B18C1 are the two best choices. Either those, or a type R B16. Get and build the Civic, but keep the Accord for future reference, or to tool around with or whatever; its a project.

                        If you are going to have 2 cars, just designate one to throw money at and boost performance, and keep the other stock as possible to drive and keep reliable.

                              If you don't want to sell the Accord then use the Civic as a DD to get you around. Set the Accord aside, and while your saving money by keeping the Civic stock dump your money into the Cb. The Civic will get you great gas mileage and this way you have a very reliable daily driver, and then your weekend warrior/project car. You'll be more happier with keeping the Civic and the Accord. A project car is meant to break down, and give you troubles. Thats why you keep aside a nice reliable DD!!!
