do what you gotta do man. this honda game will never die the only difference between u getting out now and coming back later is parts will be cheaper and everyone will probably have a k and ill take everyones ls and gsr/itr's.

Whatever

I need help ASAP. I have the motor in my car, turbo is on, intercooler is in etc... The only snag is some wiring issues. Hopefully you guys can help out. Here's the deal...

My car is a 96 CX and had the intake manifold that aims up towards the hood. On Rywire's website it states that these particular model civics need some of the harness wires lengthened along with some other modifications. It also seems that the IACV plug is wrong on my harness. The motor that I swapped in is a JDM B18B. Does anyone know what wires need to be lengthened and what plug I need for the IACV?

i stand corrected

speedooo

Theres a write up somewhere in the 92-00 civic section...96-00 d16y7s and auto d16y8s have 3 wire iacvs and everything else has a 2 wire unit...

hmm , well im sure he can get a plug and use the two needed wires and just cap the third. if you have access to a b series or a different d series harness use it. make slife easier IMO but extendig and repluging works too

id vote to change that thing man, i have a gsr tranny on mine and shifting into 5th well before the 1320 mark sucks... im hoping a ls trans with mfactory lsd will solve my shifting issues.. definently use an lsd by the way, i have a kaaz on my gsr trans and i love it

Whatever

Thanks for the responses guys. I did some digging around on here and on Honda Swap and I need the IACV 2 wire plug from an Integra Harness and need to extend the O2 sensor wires as well. I want this damn car running so I can break in the clutch and get it tuned! The other thing that sucks is the turbo inlet bumps directly up to the slave cylinder on the tranny so I can't run a filter on the turbo and I'm even gonna have a hard time putting a screen on it...
Here is a really bad cell phone pic of how it looked a couple days ago.


I had to notch the head a little to get the tial to fit on there that's why it's not on in the picture. All that's left is to wire up the resistor box and injectors, fix the IACV, extend some other wires, install the vacuum block I got (more on that later), and get a clutch line.

Anyone know where I can find just the plug for a IACV without buying a full integra harness? I also need a braided stainless hydraulic line with fittings on the end that will screw into my slave cylinder and the rubber hose coming from the hardline off the master cylinder...

b16 tranny isnt good for any build unless its an all out drag car with HUGE tires on it especially no good for an LS engine, even with cams and springs your still not going to rev and make power like a vtec so the b16 transmission is pointless. GSR is optimal and LS is good to, you can also put in a 4.4 final in the LS to give it a little more pep but not quite short as a gsr.

To chia : get a bigger tire, if yoru makign enough power to hit redline in 4th gear before the traps then you can certainly handle a bigger tire to compensate which will give you better 60's and more top end just dont go to big. what tire are you running at the track ?

To whatever: i have everything your looking for PM me if your interested.

why didn't you just get an elbow for the wastegate? i'd rather do that than notch anything..

oh, and what happened to the vin tag on your transmission?

Yeah i noticed that too, i hope cops in your area dont check under the hood otherwise your screwed

i'm running 24.5" x 8" MT's, and I'm revving to 7500 with a consistent 1.7 60', so i dont understand why I'm still having to go into 5th, but the 4-5 shift happens right around the 1000', which is causing me to hold 5th for a good 2 seconds... I'm not too great at the whole gearing thing, so what can i expect by changing to a ls trans?- it's going in this weekend and to me its more of an experiment, as I have no other good options to get me to stay in 4th

any advice would be greatly appreciated

you can expect to bog with those tires and lower your mph, its going to take more power to pull good times with an ls tranny and 24.5's what valve train are you running? what cams? whats your et look like? and weight of the car? cause gsr trans with 24.5's is a nice chunk of power so im sure you running csome kinda cam and springs and if you are then rev it higher. just tune it even if the power is falling off because shifting to 5th is going to slow you down more so then just winding out 4th gear. that or put an LS final drive in the gsr transmission. i wouldnt recomend the ls transmission though. unless you dont have valve train and cant rev higher then its your only option and then yoru going to have to play with tire sizes

according to my calculations your probably et'ing around 128mph ? which puts you right around 400whp. if this is the case then with valvetrain you can rev to 8k and acheive the same mph without the 5th gear shift

chialpha2006

This is exactly why my situation is so confusing-

I'm currently running stock cams/valvetrain, as well as stock bottom end- the only thing i have is headstuds. i recently redyno'd the car just for fun and it put down 318whp and 269tq- which is about 12+hp and 10+tq than when i got tuned in the middle of july (100 degrees outside as opposed to 50 degrees on the recent dyno run)... the car has gone 11.8@114.8 mph, but CONSISTENTLY, the car goes 12.0@114.. the weight is whatever a stock integra weighs without any other seats and most of the plastic paneling/carpeting taken out of the back, so my best guess is somewhere around 2600lbs (??) with me in it

vid of my 11.8 pass and that was through all 5 gears (lol ignore the commentaries + the mustang at the end)

i appreciate the help man, I just don't know why the car is behaving like this given my setup/tires, etc...

air pressure.

standard day in aviation is 29.92 or 14.7 psi at sealevel. which is 0 pounds of boost

http://aviationweather.gov/ on the left go to metar request tool. type in a local airport. "ksea" US Seattle. currently its 30.41 so a nice cold day like this... theres more air pressure, colder hair... your car will run better and make more power... use a airport in AZ for an example... kphx 29.92... air is warmer... less oxygen... less air pressure.

are maybe your turbo is just broke in now?

what clutch you running maybe its slipping in the higher gears with that power and a gsr tranny your shouldnt be shifting into 5th

Spoolbeast

chialpha2006 what turbo are you running?

chialpha2006

Exedy stage 2 clutch

garrett t3/t4 57 trim at ~20psi

Whatever

Justin, I got the parts I needed from a u pick junkyard today. Just need to wire up the resistor box and put the Hondata in and it's ready to run. The notching that was need was VERY minimal, basically just need to clear the rear fitting where the boost controller hose goes. As far as the VIN plate, I have no clue, it's a legit JDM motor I got from a friend who sells new and used motor, trannies and differentials. There is a bar code type of thing on there still... Car should be running tomorrow, then a 250 mile break in for the clutch and I'm taking it to Joe at Tempest racing to get it tuned.

my exedy stage 2 began slipping on 10psi 251 whp. this could be the problem.....

Hiii Im TYLER

Scotty why don't you buy a set of 750's ?? I am running those on 14lbs and they seem to benifit me pretty good. Although I am looking to make 350ish on E85, which I've been seeing is shooting on a limb, but whatever
