We need more information. If the motor in your present vehicle is working
great--any other engine you buy to replace is with is a really bad
investment unless you plan to race the car and make lots of money when you
win.

There is a good magazine about this sort of subject. It's called
Honda Tuning
You can buy it at any large magazine shop. They may have it
at Barnes and Noble.

I'll have to look for the magazine. I'm just checking out things so I can
sorta have an idea of what I want to do to my car. My friend has a Honda
and he says that he wants to trade out his engine for a type R engine. I
was just wondering what the type R was. I think there is like a celica type
R but I dont remember.

Try to get a copy of the magazine ASAP. There is an article in the current
issue about how to change out an engine. It's really impossible for the
average person . On the otherhand, if you are a mechanic and have a
shop--it should be fairly easy. It's beyond my back yard mechanical
skills. The magazine has great things to say about the type R engine that
you mentioned.
