hey guys, Im planning on doing a b18cr conversion in my ek9, Im assuming the swap over will be pretty straight forward, but Im just wondering how long the type R engines are good for ? the motor Im planning on getting has 150k kms on it, been in a minor frontal. because it was half way out when I was thinking of buying it i couldnt get compression or leak test done to it. prev owner say it doesnt smoke. Im just bit worried that after doing the conversion the engine will smoke or something internally faulty. My engine has done 130k kms on it, but still very healthy and running strong.
do you think its safe to believe the prev owner in saying the motor is healthy or would you not get a type R motor unless its compression tested? if it was under 100k I wouldnt really worry but its a little high, any feed back would be great. Thanks!
