Questions
--------------
1) From initial searches on ebay,i can only find aftermarket parts on some of the listed items such as throttle bodies and intake manifolds,fuel rails,does this matter?
2) What exhaust system should i be using? Will one from a B16A VTI work with the B20Z?
3) Will a B16A exhaust manifold (Header) work with this swap?
4) Does the B-Series tranny have to be hydro? If so,is it a direct bolt in?
5) If i bought a B16A tranny, normally will it come with flywheel,pressure plate,clutch fork,clutch fork pivot bolt,clutch fork release spring?
6) Would it be cheaper to buy a new complete B-Series mount kit such as Enjo instead of piecing together different mounts?or should i use the stock mounts and get the rear "t" brackets??

Looks good to mesounds like you have a good shopping list. Yes, you can use a b16 or b18 header and gsr but it hangs a little lower because it has to clear the the gsr pan witch hangs lower due to the girdle.

Hondarookie93

ok thank you!! nd i see you have a H22!!! ive seen my friend drop that motor in his 95 hatch but he has no A/C!!, will i have to worry about not having A/C with this swap??

H22AFerio

Yeah Its a fun swap I love my H23a it has a crap load of torque. With your swap you can keep everything A/C and P/S dont worry. H22 is another story there is no room for power steering with out major modifcation a/c is possiable. but to much work.

Hondarookie93

lol im gonna have a shop put my motor in but i wanted to make sure i had EVERYTHING bcuz i dont them to try and tell me im missing something and order it themselves but i watched 2 of my friends work on that 95 hatch for a couple of weeks lol it almost seemed like it was non stop lol he still has some small issues from time to time but its still fun to watch him drop down a gear and pull on a 350z lol

H22AFerio

lol yeah it is alot of work but its for sure worth it. lol yeah it is funny handing it to other cars like that. a guy on my block is always bad mouthing hondas cuz he is a mustang guy. I caught him out on the street one day in his mustang and handed him his ***, 2 car lengths and im not even tuned yet im just running a stock JDM p13 lol

ELIDA9

List looks complete to me.....keep us updated on this as it goes along.

Hondarookie93

DAMN MAN!!!!! lol i hate mustang guys!!! i raped a mustang(base model) guy and his girlfriend with my y7 with just an intake and headers!!lol but one last question, will this be smog legal in NC?? or is that only in Cali??(cant seem to find any info on it online)

Hondarookie93

Questions
--------------
1) From initial searches on ebay,i can only find aftermarket parts on some of the listed items such as throttle bodies and intake manifolds,fuel rails,does this matter? I have all the oem parts complete, let me know if you want to buy them)
2) What exhaust system should i be using? Will one from a B16A VTI work with the B20Z? (B16a vti will work)
3) Will a B16A exhaust manifold (Header) work with this swap? (yes)
4) Does the B-Series tranny have to be hydro? If so,is it a direct bolt in? (yes, it has to be hydro and its bolt on)
5) If i bought a B16A tranny, normally will it come with flywheel,pressure plate,clutch fork,clutch fork pivot bolt,clutch fork release spring? (sometimes, not all the time)
6) Would it be cheaper to buy a new complete B-Series mount kit such as Enjo instead of piecing together different mounts?or should i use the stock mounts and get the rear "t" brackets?? (aftermarket mounts tend to be stiffer and vibrate the interior a little bit, its not required. As being more expensive, it depends. Use parts are pretty cheap. I have the front transmission mount if you want to buy it.


If you have any other questions, feel free to pm me.

Hondarookie93

A b16 exhaust manifold and collector pipe may not clear the B20. A B20/LS is taller. The B16 is kinda short. I would look into this, either go measure both or ask around.

Otherwise, an aftermarket header would be a good idea. It will let the motor flow better. You won't make more than a couple more horsepower, but it lets other modifications make power.

Deetz

Don't waste your time and money on a new intake manifold. The B20Z intake manifold works great!!! My last swap i ran it for a while, with everyone telling me the LS one was better, so i switched it, and lost power!! Leave it stock

The b20z hump intake manifold didnt clear my itr tower bar. I think that was the reason why I switched it.

Deetz

If that were the case, i'd ditch the ITR bar and get a Spoon/Vision bar which will clear np

ELIDA9

depending on the year of the B20, I believe that there are two diffrent intake manifolds. There is a taller one that will not clear, so you will have to swap it out. Then there is the shorter one, wich I think is the higher compresion one.IMO

Deetz

We are talking about the the B20Z, which came out in 1999 which is the high compression model, not the 1st gen B20B with the tall manifold and low compression

ELIDA9

I know.......I was just putting that out there, my mistake.

Hondarookie93

so what should i do??leave it stock or change it???

Deetz

I say leave it! Speaking from experience

jayWknight

deetz, he would need a integra gsr throttle cable for the b20z intake manifold?

Hondarookie93

ok and whats everyones opinion on resleeving the B20Z??
