Current Setup:
1995 Del Sol
B16A, 5 Speed

I am going to order my GSR longblock from Hmotors tomorrow and needed help with a few things.
1. What engine prep would i have to do (if any) to the GSR motor before i swap it in. I've only rebuilt engines, never ordered them from online. I am pretty sure i'm going to replace my clutch and some hoses off the bat.
2. I heard that you have to add a wire to my B16 harness (knock sensor). Can anyone confirm this?

Any help is greatly appreciated

First.EG

u should add the ks to ur harness if u are gonna use a p72 so u dont get cel but if ur using a chipped p28 u can go without it cause the p28 doesnt look for it

jakl

ya im going to be using the p72

So just wire in the knock sensor and you should be good to go

People like to do the timing belt and water pump when its out of the car.

if it came with a B16 it will already have the knock snesor wired, what you will need to add is the wires for IAB

k so i just need to wire the IAB? its a 2-wire plug, one for ground and the other goes to A17 right?

On an OBD1 computer, I believe that's correct.

It's different on OBD2a, and different again on OBD2b.

As far as preparing the engine for a good life, here is what i would do.....

- timing belt for sure!
- front & rear main seals
- new plugs
- upon inspection, maybe cap/rotor
- great time for a clutch/flywheel if you don't already have

ya i was gonna do new plugs and timing belt. ill do the seals too since they are cheap.

as for the clutch, does anyone know of a decent quality cheap-ish clutch? as in better than stock but doesnt cost $400
