Side note, not looking to go overboard with anything just yet. Would just like to get the car back up and running

Ouch. Damn! K-swapu ?
A rebuild cost me ~ $1750:
Machine work, new OE pistons, gaskets, seals, rings, custom head shave, tanking parts, head tested for leaks (valves) $950
New clutch $250
New OEM BP oil pump $100
New Alternator, Starter, OEM harmonic balancer pulley, water pump $300
Special tools $50
New injectors, hoses, belts, oil pan baffle, FPR $250
I built it myself, did a few custom performance tricks. Of course you dont need to replace as much as I did. I wound up with a rebuilt original engine, everything as new. 205-210psi across the cylinders. Very healthy 1.6.

Slowly but surely if I do go the rebuild route id do similar. A jdm 1.6 might have to do for now if I really wanted it back on the road. Time is not on my side at the moment so the car will have to sit for awhile.
Graduating within the next year so who knows maybe my 13b dreams will come true hehehe

Only have a week to work with it since summer school is around the corner, but goal is to get it up and running within the week

Cant wait to have it up and running soon
You work fast! Did you found out what went wrong?
Will be going back to stock for now just to have it smogged. All major maintenance will be done before throwing it back in.
So excited to have the car back soon
