ok guys i have been on this build for a while now and its my first build..its taking a pretty long time because of work and money issues but heres what i have so far..
oh yeah its a 2000 civic cx hatch with a 2000 obd2b b18c1 gsr motor gong in..

this is what it used to look like


and after the accident..


this is what i got to rebuild it..


never got a picture of the civic's sohc non-vtec but heres a couple of it out..

then i ground down all the spot weld rust and most of the paint and primed..

snaponkid123

Sorry about all the cell phone pics but its all i got maybe i can blow them up..

snaponkid123

Okay now that i have figured out the picture i will keep going with this thing..

this is the first couple coats of paint.



This looked good for a while but realized after test fitting some things it would get pretty scratched up. i will have to repaint eventually..

Heres a picture of the engine bay how it looks today.. i have my avid mounts set in there to test fitment, painted the cradle and put the headlights in to test fit..




Ground down the wheel wells and re undercoated them with good thick stuff..

Sand blasted the control arms and tierod ends and hub assembly and painted those also..

Now that the car is close to ready i started on the wiring... i have a 99 ex enginE harness i am converting.. i need some help with this..

snaponkid123

anyone know where i can find the pinout for the green connector on the engine harness.. i know it goes to the dash but i have an extra plug with a green wire that goes to that green connector and a black wire that mush go to a ground.. i will have a picture later todayh or tomorrow but anyone have any idea what it may be?

snaponkid123

up before i go to STP concert

snaponkid123

you know i try to make a good thread and get some help but i only get 400 views and no responses anyone help me?

From memory... There are a few green connectors under the dash. I think you need to be more descriptive. A picture will help. Is that a B18B you're dropping in? The state of your wiring harness makes me cringe.

Libertariat

Not digging the rainbow of colors for the suspension/steering geometry, but to each his own. Looks like there will be a lot of attention to detail. Good luck

snaponkid123

Ej8man.. its the green connector thats on the engin harness itself. heres a picture..i have a green wire coming out of that going to a plug with a black wire that is a ground.. what can this be? and its not a b18b its a b18c1

snaponkid123

thats a rywire conversion harness too by the way

snaponkid123

another question can i remove the heater core and blower assembly with the wiring harness and everything without problems?? i dont need a CEL

silverbullet9626

that plug ur talkin about looks like the power steering pressure switch

snaponkid123

sounds reasonable thanks.. why does it go to the greed big main plug?

snaponkid123

ok put the dash back in today.. didnt put the blower unit or heater core back in.. wont throw a code now will it? also ordered an exedy stage 1 organic cluch with fidanza 7.5 lb flywheel.. anyone used this combonation before?

snaponkid123

anybody know about that clutch? or the flywheel?

BigMike0147

I've got an exedy stage 1 on my car right now. No problems. Smooth engagement. I'm replacing it with an ACT XTSS when I drop in my turbo build in a week or so. Just to hold more power though, but I haven't had problems with the Exedy. I've got a lightened flywheel too, but I'm not sure of the weight/brand. But, it does seem to rev a little faster than a stock flywheel.

Are you swapping everything from the GSR over? including the brakes? or your just swapping the motor?

snaponkid123

Okay thanks BigMike thats good to hear.. and im only doing basic bolt ons for now so ishould be ok with that holding the power..

Jimster.. no im not swaping the brakes wish i was but sold them before i found out i was doing a civic not another integra.. thinking the next one would already have the brakes

still want to find the pin out for the green plug on the engine harness though if anyone can help

snaponkid123

anyone have a link for the pin out? just want to triple check the wiring
