Well, I had more questions actually lol.
my car randomly doesn't start?
when the engine wasn't blown.... eh... lol.
I took it to a mechanic and he couldn't get it to not start?
its really annoying, I love this car but I don't know what that problem could be?Comment

oh! and the RPM's while idling would go up to almost 3 then go back down, then back up, then back down, not really fast but not slow ether, man this car is so messed up lol. but it only happened in park or neutral?Comment

Yes you can swap the motor with no problem if you know what you are doing. As for 500 a wheel thats just damn stupid that means it will be 2000 for the whole car and with that u can buy a new one. the idle surge is the idle air control valve most of the time but if you plan on swapping the motor you do not have to change it since your motor should come with one. As for your car not starting at random times can be several things not just one in particular.
btw Searching is a very easy way to find this out all by yourself if you would take the time to do it. And your mechanic is trying to juice you for that price of doing rotors. i would recommend getting a new one

well, he said it was sealed on or something? I don't know it would relieve alot of stress if I could figure all this out
and I've tried searching and google said that they were sealed on too, so yeah:|
I just need the front 2 done.Comment

They are not sealed the are pressed between the hub and bearing witch makes them difficult to do. but it is not a job that cost what your mechanic is asking for. i have a guy who can do mine for 100.Comment

As far as your car randomly not starting. It could be a faulty Main Relay, since it a fairly common problem on old hondas. Though, the main relay problem is mostly seen when your car is sits on the sun for too long on a hot day or if its really cold.
As for as the idle problem, it could be a Vacuum leak(meaning that there could be an air leak on your intake)... or maybe a bad Fast idle thermo valve.
You can see the diagnosis for that here:

they go cheap. if your gonna get a new motor do not worry about the idle issue. also if you are gonna get a motor might i recommend the h22 swap. you will not be disspointed.Comment

thats too complicated though I'd have to worry about v-tec and all that.

I care about looks more then performance honestly... so speed isn't that much of an issue. Honestly after going through all this i'm going to drive much slower anyway lol.Comment
