Update:
I have 94 EG HB Shell that was Auto... I am now putting in a Turbo B18B
Can anyone help me with the Reverse Light wiring and the neutral safely.
and the right way to wire up the clutch.

Pictures would help a lot.

And can anyone tell me the best / cheapest ECU to go with that will aloud me to run turbo, plug and play with the boost controller


The car has a ODB1 body harness and the motor is a B18B OBD2.

the tranny swap is straight forward. Obviously you need all the 5 speed parts. Only electrical areas are figuring out the neutral safety as the car will think its in whatever gear the selector switch is left in, wiring in reverse lights, and unlocking the steering wheel.

*auto-->manual tranny mount
*wire up the VTEC components for the motor
*as for the S2000 gauge clusters, there's plenty of DIY threads that can help you tackle that project

beat me to it...came back to post the custom mount. Was outside pressure washing my engine and saw it

Thanks...I found some other threads that dive into it a little.
The car had a D15 Non-VTEC Auto..but that was removed.
So far I have B16a w/ trany and the shift linkage.
waiting on a few more parts...Would it be easier to replace the stock harness with a SI harness?..

No need to source another engine harness if yours is still good. Wiring up VTEC is easy if you're handy with a soldering pen/gun. You can add the wires onto the old DX harness when it's out of the car. It gives you more room to work with.

Replace the following while the "new" swap is still laying around:
- clutch
- water pump
- timing belt tensioner
- front & rear main seals
- thermostatt
