i dont know where to post this one but heres my d16a1 thats going in my 90 civic. i kno im gonna get flamed for putting a junk motor in my civic thats gonna take alot of work for no power but i got the motor cheap. and its only gonna be in the car for a year or so until i got money for a good swap. but heres the motor


i kno its clean


oh and heres my wheel i traded a cat converter for


sorry if its in the wrong forum

 

Thats a clean motor! Good luck!

 

Lol..i have that same wheel!....good luck on the D16a1...what are you doing for mounts?

 

your mounts are going to be tricky on the driverside from what i've read, and something funky with one of the tranny bolts not aligning up or something.

 

Good Luck for you

 

man, I think you got raped for the cat since they usually run about 80-120 used....... Go to any junkyard around and ask.

 

The A1 is a solid motor and a nice upgrade from your stock one.
Do the swap, save up some money, and then boost it.

Instead of the B swap, put that money towards turbo parts and you'll have a fun and much quicker car.

Good luck and have fun! That's a damn clean motor you got there!

 

thanks. cats around here in iowa usually go for 20$ lol. i mean i know i can get more but i also can get cats pretty easy. i also got a huge ugly fart can muffler. not gonna happen. ll sell that. the kid has also givin me alot of stuff. i know what i have to do for the mount. and the tranny/starter bolt. not a big deal.

 

another pic of my ugly motor


tranny im using



harness im using

i would have pics of us pulling the motor from the bottom but my junk phone memorycard aint working but..


motor out.


.....


and i know im a noob but what is this and can i move it? '
im gonna get into detail on my pointless d16a1 swap so i can show people it can be done

 

sorry for the large pics ill resize later

 

hey i still have a d15 in my crx and it a great motor for saving gas. With gas at $3.80 and going up 5 cents a week you'll love the a1 u got.

 

that wheel looks dangerous.

what if your hands start to sweat, or if you have greasy hands from working on the car..

 

thats what i was thinking. i got another wheel . a a black leather one. much safer lol

 

ok so i had to get more parts for my auto/manual swap and the crx dash swap. i traded my buddy a good civic bumper for anything i want off his 88 crx si. so this is some of the things i got and i gotta go get some more. oh and i already put the front dropzone coilovers on.







sorry im gonna use a better camera tomorrow.
