First I can see you don't know much about your car, this is not a criticism, it's just that this makes you a non expert on what is wrong with it also. What is it doing or not doing that is a problem? What ever it is it will be much easier to fix that putting a CA18DET in.

 

Second, nothing is going to 'drop in' except another A series engine and /or transmission. Lengthening or shortening  your driveshaft is the absolute least thing you need to worry about swapping a CA18DET into your B.

I would take the CA18 swap off the table till you figure out how bad the problem really  is.

Tell the people on here what it does and when it does it ,, noises or whatever,  as there is some of THE best B210,  minds and tranny lovers on the internet here, that can help you guess at it.,....... Do you have a camera that takes video ? sometimes that helps quite a bit.

   Do you have money for someone to help you fix it ?
