Looking for help/tools with swap SATURDAY 10 AM on Ohio State Campus
Swapping a obd2 d15 vtec (3-stage) into my 99 civic sedan.
*Temporarily using existing y7 ecu. No wiring of vtec required*
Location: Columbus, OH (Ohio State Campus)
Engine: 96-00 jdm d15b vtec
Car: 99 Civic LX Sedan (d16y7)
Off the Y7:
y8 tranny
header
cold air intake
Materials provided by me:
Pay for labor
Antifreeze
Oil
Oil filter
Brake fluid
Food/Drinks, $ for beer
The blown Y7 if anyone wants it, free
Needed:
All tools required EXCEPT: Wrenches & sockets
Someone to take the blown Y7
I already have one or two guys helping out in the area that I found through OhioHondas. Some still may come, and may bring more tools. One big item I still need is a large jack or a cherry picker.
Were shooting to start SATURDAY @ 10:00 AM, but I am guessing it will be a day long project.
Let me know if you'd be willing to help! I am paying for help!

i have heard that a cheery picker isnt needed if you jack up the jack and slide it over the motor then drop the car into place then raise the engine with a jack... i havent done this since i always had a cherry picker... put a posting on craigslist for the engine and im sure someone will grab it

I'm in for updates, I'd like to know the outcome of this. If this happens successfully all of my faith in Honda-Tech will be restored.
