okay well im debating on buy a b18a1 swap transmission and harness and all for 450 but my friend says the trans wont work in my 93 hatch since its a cable he said i need a hydro and i can get just a block for 100 bucks.

weemanch

bumpy need 2 know if that cable trans will work or not

crazyz250

yeah your civic has a hydro i ran into that problem with my swap as well

weemanch

damn it cause i can get a full swap and what not for 450 so yea wonder if i can talk him down now since i cant use the transmission then.

Get a cable/hydro conversion from Hasport. We just put one in my friends hatch, and they're not that hard to install and it makes it work just fine.

....now I need to figure out this wiring

weemanch

how much wiring is it for the conversion (obd O to 1).cause i know they make the kits or or whatever for the ecu i belive. i want to basically do this though easyiest way possible though

00CivicGirl

is the a1 you are putting in obd0? If so you will need to adjust a little wiring but you should be able to use a obd1 distributor and some other things. i do not think you will need a jumper since your chassis is obd1..theres no jumper obd1 - obd0. Just get you an obd1 ls ecu

As far as the tranny, you can do a cable to hydro conversion or buy the swap, sell the cable tranny and buy a hydro one. Hydro LS trannies are much easier to come by than a cable ls...i should know, i;ve had to get 2 the past 3 months

wow wth u doing with ur transmissions to grenade them that much.but i have found a jumper though but its a obd O motor and harness and ecu i would be getting though.also i forgot were i found the jumper.

well 1 tranny was for my fiance's car and another was in my cousins project car that we did the auto 5spd swap on but just looking for those, i found that cable ls trannies are hard to come by

I am not sure how the jumper would work... going to obd1 to an obdo motor...

the jumper, jumps the ecu to the harness.

ex: i have a 90 integra, i put an obd2 motor in (thinking it was obd1 lol). i jumped the harness ot the obd1 computer to run it all. we did have to block off a few vacum lines and 1 sensor. we used the obd1 injectors and we rewired the harness to hook to an obd1 dizzy.

maybe that helps you some but im not that good at helping on obd0 motors into newer cars. i do have a obd0 motor sittin in the garage so i know i will be looking into that in the future

would i need integra brakes and rotor ect to fit into the half shats/axels or wil i be good on that though.cause i was wondering on that so i know wether or not to add that to my shopping list.

no your stock brakes will be fine..you will need b series axles/half shaft though

i have a b18a1 in my 92 hatch, trust me just buy the obd1 dist. YOU WILL HAVE TROUBLE with the drivers side motor mount. this part is called the engine post mount if i am correct: you need one from an obd1 integra. just sell the cable trans and get a hydro one, with all the extra work and price of the cable to hydro it will not be worth it. i used all DA (pre 94 axles, half shaft) with no changes to the suspension. you will also have a problem with the throttle cable unless you run a obd1 intake manifold or make a throttle cable holder. do not forget to use the integra shift linkage. good luck man

weemanch

k well what about a aftermarket intake would how could i tell if its for a obd 1 car

queda

intake mani?

00CivicGirl

intake what? CAI wont matter. you should use an obd1 intake manifold though

slowturbocx

intake manifold, i thought it was obvious when i said problems with the throttle cable.

weemanch

i know that meaning the the throttle body and intake manifold i was wondering about like aftermarket ones basically doesnt matter guessing then
