Hi there, I'm using my brother-in-law account to ask help with this. I have 2 1998 Integra Coupe automatic. Eventhough it gets me around, I want a Type R for quite some time now. I want to first start off with the engine. I'm a beginner when it comes to mechanical works and what is needed to make a swap. But I made up my mind about the swap and I bought a JDM B18C Motor. Here is the site: http://www.jdmsource.ca/honda/b18cr.html says that it comes with the:

-JDM B18C Engine,
-Manual Transmission,
-JDM ECU,
-Alternator,
-Air Conditioning,
-Power Steering,
-Pump, Distributor,
-Wiring Harness

I just want a car that can push out around 200-250HP with ALL MOTOR and NO Turbo. I'm asking are those all the parts that I need to make the swap?

I have 2 cars to choose from for the swap, a 98' GS Coupe (B18b) or a 97' LS Coupe (B18b). Both of the car has VTEC? so I wont have to do no VTEC wiring. Some of my friends did the swap with their hatch and had to do wiring ffor the vtec.

If there's any other parts or anything else I need to do, please PM or EMAIL me and I will be greateful. Thank you.

ummmm you stated both cars have the B18B, which is a non-vtec motor to start with......soooo regardless....either car you swap the JDM ITR motor into, you're going to be wiring in the vtec....

in fact, anytime you swap in ANY Vtec motor into a car that did not come with vtec.....you're going to be wiring in vtec. Unless....you swap out the entire wire harness....but thats a PITA....or I'm just lazy

 

To start you will need a vtec harness, I got mine from hasport. It is easier to put the motor side on while the motor is out of the car. Make sure you tell them the year of the motor and what ecu you will be using. Next is your accessories, if you plan to use power steering you will need a bracket from a gsr/civic si/b16a/b18c5, all the same ls won't fit. Lastly you may have to replave the slave cylinder thing on the tranny, everything else should be direct fit. Good luck.
