1992 Civic Si b16a2 swap
I have posted about this car already, it already has the swap but im considering purchasing it. It actually has a drag turbo kit but i figured you guys would be knowledgeable on this question.
The owner said he could not get the last motor mount in. Right now it has 3 motor mounts. the 2 side ones (tranny and motor) and then the back of the tranny.
But I guess there is one more motor mount which he has in the back seat of the car but said he never could get it to install right and that everyone he had spoke to and looked at their car never had it either. I drove the car and had no problems with wheelhop and he has been driving it for around 25k miles and not had a problem.
Is this a common practice in a swap like this?
Also another stupid mundane question, I have tried to search on this board and did like "1992 AND swap" or something like that so I didnt have to ask this question but I never got any results, i tried to select the body of the message etc. I just hate being that guy asking the same question over again.
One more thing, when removing the tranny in this car (to replace clutch or put in LSD) you pretty much have to brace the engine with a jack or something right? what is common practice on this? Im used to my DSM where i can pull the tranny out and not worry about the engine at all.
Also what Half-shafts are used in the car? I couldnt find any info on that either.
Thanks again for all these questions from a honda newb like me.

That swap requires the use of 94-00 integra mounts, using the d/s upper,tranny rear,tranny upper,tranny front brace, and ac bracket! Also the del sol dohc vtec mounts work and are the same as well. Axles can be used from any 94-00 integra or del sol dohc vtec.
