B18C swap in 91 crx Si, lots of questions
OK, I might be getting a 90 or 91 CRX Si and dropping the B18C motor+LSD tranny from hmotors. Now I have many questions so I know what parts I need for the swap.
planning on using P72 ecu
1. What throttle cable? (i've heard with Si model I dont need to change the cable?)
2. Which distributor? it's gonna be obd1 right?
3. Which axles?
What about the shift linkage? I've heard something from hasport shift linkage kit from hydraulic to cable car?
4. Whats involved in the wiring? I've heard that we need to repin/add some connections. What needs to be added/changed? couldn't find any info on this.
I tried to find a FAQ but I didnt find it for everything I was looking for. Just trying to get some kind of list going. Thanks for all you help guys. I might be getting this setup if my 99 prelude SH doesn't get fixed. It has some kinda electricical problem(i'm guessing ground short). Dealer has the car since monday and they still cant find it. Hopefully the CRX will be as good handling car as my lude. we'll see...

ok
1. you dont need to change it, all crx throttle cables are the same....no matter hf, dx, or si....you can either change the cable to 90-93 teg cable or get a bracket from place racing for like 10 bucks...
2. whatever year motor you buy is what type of distributor it comes with...92-95 are obd1 computers....get a conversion kit that makes that makes your obd0 harness to obd1 so it works with that computer ....
3. i think, dont quote me on this, its the 90-93 axles..., yah you need a shift linkage kit too, its for b-series in crx ....and the tranny kit you are talking about also must be purchased...hasport has them....as well as the shift linkages
4. yeah, you have to do some adjustments on the distributor, alt. and a few more things...i aint too sure about it...go post in the EF section, they'll be able to help you more
so basically you'll be buying all your parts from placeracing and hasport...
