    I have a Honda CR-V 1999 model and I'm thinking about swapping it with a civic vti B16a EG internal engine
    B20 Racing Transmission, B20 Fuel pump, B20 injectors (pencil type), type R Piston B18c, Type R ECU (computer box)
    EG cams (cam shaft), HKS adjustable cam gears, 4-2-1 Stainless headers, Scav, Simota air filter (carbon aluminum air intake), SIR Distributor, EF Transmission (fluid type)

    Is it worth it?

    para sakin.

    nope, not worth it.
    i would rather keep a mantained 99 crv than a souped up vti,
    kahit pa sabihin ng last owner na "pang porma lang", which totally hindi ako maniniwala.

    kung pinalitan lang ng stock b16a engine as is, pwede pa,
    pero modded to that extent, no thanks.

    nasayo parin yan sir,
    thats just me.

    For me don't swap, the CRV 99 is still worth keeping than swapping it with a heavily modified 15 year old SiR converted Vti.

    that, i have no idea sir.

    but if your into racing, go ahead, atleast modded na yung nakuha mo,
    mY mga shops naman dyan sa maintenance ng mga modded cars,
    not sure sa price thou.

    lets just wait for other tsikot members who are into modding and racing (which i'm not)
    for their views and comments.

    para sakin lang, mas okei na yung crv kesa dun sa modded one.

    Not worth it.

    Yung CRV mo pwede mo dalhin kung saan without worrying kung sasayad ba or not, basically it's a beater. Dun sa VTi, mas luma na nga... ginalaw pa yung internals tapos ang baba pa. Iisipin mo pa kung saan ka pupunta ganito ganyan.

    Tsaka mas may respect ka kapag CRV dala mo compared sa isang mas lumang sedan imho.

    I'd rather buy a stock VTi MT then do the mods by myself. Pero still, kung isswap sa CRV... di na rin.

    --

    Di ka pa pala familiar sa engine mods, naku. Baka mamaya pag may nasira sa engine niyan mabaliw ka nalang.

    Remember hindi na stock makina niyan, tapos hindi mo pa alam kung paano ginamit... baka mamaya ilang kms mo palang napapatakbo masira na tapos clueless ka kung paano gagawin.
