i got a couple questions for a gsr swap
1) so right now i have 92 civic cx hb with non vtec. so should i use all the integra wiring harnesses or is there another way because i don't want to cut into anything i want plug n play for electrical.
2) now for the suspension. do i use integra front suspension or what?
3) and for motor mounts what mounts do i need??
any other gsr swap things that i need to know will be much appreciated.

I used a 95 civic ex harness for my ls/v motor, the mounts you'll need are aftermarket b series from has port or whatever. And a 99-00 rear T bracket and I used 99 so front and rear suspension on my eg but I think 94-01 integra front suspension will work, nothing older

I used the engine harness that came with my 98 gsr and it was plug and play into my 94 civic vx chassis harness at the strut tower. I did have to repin two wires for knock sensor and O2 sensor. I used a aftermarket IM so I wouldn't have to wire up the IAB's

Use your stock suspension. The gsr only weight like 30 lbs more than a d series.

You can use OEM integra mounts but I went with Hasport 62a mounts since I plan on boosting and tracking my hatch.

so i just use the wiring harness from the year teg the motor came from??
and im a noob lol what is a knock sensor and iab and im ???
and should i just use my eg suspinsion just replace with integra axels and drive shaft correct???
and for the mounts do i change out all 3 mounts or just 2 ???
sorry for all the questions im basicly just learning this from scratch this will be my first motor swap. i appreciate all your help

Click the links I posted for the driveshaft and mount info. Yeah use the harness it came with .You'll have to add knock and iab at the shock tower plug or use a subharness (iabs intake butterflies the GSR intake manifold uses). IM is intake manifold.

this!

and you can even use your og harness just have to wire up vtec,knock sensors

iabs are the butterflies inside the intake manifold for controling low end torque.


if its the manifold on the gsr that drops down.

The only reason I went this suspension was that of course I'm replacing everything on my car like K-tuned did with their Si eg. Is because its an easier way for bigger brakes someone mentioned you don't need the suspension but my logic is "why not?" Lol

If you have the b18 harness I'd use that. Since you have a 92 it's prewired for VTEC at the shock tower so all you'd have to wire up is knock and IAB.
