can anyone tell me what t bracket to use for this swap?? b18c into a 98 civic coupe.thanks.

vtec-king

you can use your stock mounts....but you have to chance the timming belt bracket to 99-00 si,and the same for the t bracket for the tranny must be a 99-00 si

HarosGSRek

is that what you did? i used the factory mount on the passanger side. used the gsr mount on the driver side. i got a cheap ebay bracket for the driver side. now i just need the back. i dont wanna have to weld it.

t braket must be 00-99 si for any 99-00 civic with a b swap, the t belt bracket that bolts to the block must be for a ek, eg/dc are spaced diff and will not fit

forcefedferio

the driver side motor mount bracket must be from a DOHC, not just any "ek". SOHC brackets will not work

You wanna use the b18c rear bracket, the b16a rear bracket only works with the b16's and the b18c rear bracket only works with the b18c's

All B/D-series mounts are the same, the only difference is in the brackets and torque mounts

HarosGSRek

t3kniqe are you sure? have you done this before?
people keep telling me i need a si t bracket.

T3KNiQe

use b16a timing belt bracket with d-series mount (all mounts are the same), as for that rear bracket you need http://hasport.com/shop/product_info...products_id=48

forcefedferio

no he isn't sure, because he is dead wrong.

ALLLLLLL 96-00 civics that are b-series use a 99-00 civic SI rear T-bracket.
92-95 civics/94-01 integras/93-97 del sols all use 94-01 integra rear t-brackets (or 94-97 Del Sol VTEC)

Driver side motor mount can be the factory liquid filled mount. or a 94-01 integra (any)/94-97 del sol (any) or 94-95 civic (ex/si) mount with the appropriate corresponding DOHC bracket, and of course the conversion bracket so your 6th gen can utilize this type of mount.

Rear motor mount (actual rubber mount) can be stock.

Trans side mount can be stock (assuming it was manual transmission to begin with)

Torque mounts-match corresponding engine choice, I.E. LS motor use integra LS torque mounts, any year after 94 just to keep it easy.

I've always just been able to use the chassis' torque mounts. D or B series doesn't matter. Manual to manual automatic to automatic, obviously.

HarosGSRek

forcefedferio

anytime sir, glad to help

I'm doing the same swap, GSR b18 into a 98 ek. I bought the SI rear T bracket and hopefully I won't need anything else. I have all the gsr mounts and the factory d series mounts. I guess I'll find out when I get that far.

The GSR rear L bracket WILL NOT WORK. Trust me. The L bracket and timing bracket MUST be from 99-00 Si. Forcefedferio is right. ALL the rubber mounts can be reused. The torque brackets will work from any b series though.

import-tooner

Which bracket is the "L" bracket and timing bracket? Any one have a pic of the motor so I know what you're talking about? Ya I know, I'm dumb. Draw me a picture. haha

Besides the rear Si/Si-r/CTR T bracket, you need the 2 prong bracket that attatches to the driver's side upper mount. The round liquid filled one.

The bracket is from a B16 meant for a 92-00 civic chassis.

R666_EK

I didn't think the 92-95 would work as they share mounts with the dc chassis. I always thought just the 99-00 would work.

R666_EK

The "L" or "T" bracket (same thing) Is the bracket that mounts in the back To the subframe. The timing bracket is was mounts to the engine by the timing cover.

import-tooner

Okay, I have that one. Thanks.

For the driver's side upper mount and bracket (the bracket goes under the T belt cover):


Most 92-95 Si's and EXes (D16Z6) had the 3 prong mount/bracket. The mount itself is aluminum...it's the GS-R mount.

However, the JDM SI-R uses a 2 prong bracket that will mount a B series into any 92-00 civic chassis. The mount itself is different from 92-95 and 96-00. The B series bracket is the same.

boostedb20ek

i have the da and dc bracket.neither seem to fit.now looking for a si bracket

Nicky

Here is my case, I took a B16 out of an EG and the T bracket is still there. Can use that same T bracket in a EK?

From what you posted it doesn't look like I can use the bracket? But I want to be sure before I go out and buy one.
