got my b18c1 today
so i picked up the complete swap today i got it for 2500
engine, trans,ecu,axles,linkaage,mounts
im putting it in this weekend but i have some questions
im putting on a skunk2 manifold before i put it in the car (put one on my bros car it was kind of a pain) so i decided that this would be my first mod besides my CAI and im gettin a jdm 4-1 header
what i wanted to know was do i need to use a different throttle cable or will the one from my hatch work with the skunk intake
also the motor is an obd2, i have a 95 gsr ecu already but is there any wiring i have to do
i plan on using the harnsess from my d16z6
also where can i buy a skunk2 manifold by friday
used or new
thanks in advanced

Re: got my b18c1 today (In The 16s)
hey i heard if you switch intake manifolds you have to get your ecu chipped to make it a single runner, since the stock gsr ecu will look for the secondaries to open. good luck in the swap. what car is it going into?

Re: got my b18c1 today (WR93EG)
u need the b16/type r throttle cable, b16/type r cable bracket, and the throttle body. i just did mine without any of those, and it worked fine. the gsr cable bracket may hit the hood though, not sure on urs. as for the ecu, get the sohc vtec ecu and rechip it to dohc specs. the gsr one is still good, and it wont throw codes for the butterflies, but the p28 is better suited if u have the skunk manifold. i have the skunk in my car, and im running a p28 mugen spec.

Re: got my b18c1 today (WR93EG)
i think u would be fine useing your stock cable, if for some reason theres a problem then just find a B16 cable. chipping your ecu its not neccesary, you mightthrow a code for the secodaries but what does it matter u dont have them. when u get done could u post pics and your opinion? im deciding between the skunk2 or JG manifold.....
BTW anyone know what i should use to remove the intake manifold gasket? mine is stuck to the head

as for the gasket, go to pepboys/autozone/kragen get gasket remover, and spray on. let sit and go at it with a razor blade.
