Mount kits, shift linkage, the b18c1 intake manifold won't fit unless the firewall is banged up pretty good (get a skunk2 intake manifold), figure out which obd you want to do (obdo,1,2). If it has wiring, does it have MPFI, or DPFI in it? IF it doesn't get MPFI wiring and put it in through out the entire car.

Thats pretty much it otherwise check out http://www.droppedcrxsi.com .

The gsr intake mani will fit, its just cimbersome, and the fuel filfter will have to be relocated for proper clearence... The gsr computer will make the car very slow midrange with a skunk2 intake mani because the iabs are removed, however, if you reprogram your ecu you will be a happy camper.

The wiring is better left to me if you are the least bit innexperienced. check out http://www.rywire.com, and my site that vtecn8ive posted above. If the car is a dpfi, the best thing to do is to send the dx harness in to us and have us wire it to mpfi, the si interior harness is expensive, and very hard to remove. Also, if its not the same exact year plugs will be a little off. Good luck.

oops. Well you are planning on using the 2000 integra wiring? If so the ecu is/should be setup for Key Immobilizer (i think it was 00-01). What obd are you planning on doing?

I am doing a b16a2 swap obd1 and I am in the process of using 94 Integra GSR wiring myself. I plan on having it running in May or June.

good god no.

BAD IDEA!!!!

send out the DX harness to get done, use an obd0-obd1 adapter at the ecu.

rywire has everything for it.

other places do the conversions too.

Sure, with a service manual, and hours and hours to spend anything is possible. This is just the most straight forward procedure.
