i also own a 97 civic ex. what do i need besides mounts for this swap?
i have the p73 itr ecu .and since the itr is a 98 and my coupe is a 97 both obd2 i shouldnt have wiring problems? what <a style='text-decoration: none; border-bottom: 3px double;' href="http://www.serverlogic3.com/lm/rtl3.asp?si=9&k=wire%20harness" onmouseover="window.status='wire harness'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">wire harness</a> to use also? shift linkage and mounts? please any comments will be good.im new to the EK chasis...i just always had eg's....thanks

BUMP!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

search mang, let me see if I could get you a link

 

i searched

 

bump this..

 

shift linkage and axles.. the itr has a half shaft axle.. your ex does not.
I am not sure about the wiring though.. sorry.

 

more info pleaseee

 

i think you can use stock mounts unless needed

 

ttt

 

LISTEN TO EVERYTHING IM GONNA SAY because its CORRECT and you WILL need it

HERES THE INFO

you have a 97 EX and its obd2a
you have a 98 ITR and its obd2a
your VERY LUCKY

96-99 integra is obd2a, 00-01 integra is obd2b
96-98 civic is obd2a, 99-00 civic is obd2b
see the difference?

wiring would not be a problem, just plug your single cam EX harness onto the ITR motor and your good. you just have to extend your crank sensor plug and o2 sensor plug. not a problem at ALL.

if you got the whole car, use everything from it (these guys^^^^ up there dont know what theyre talkin about.. halfshaft???). take the axles, halfshaft, ecu. take the 5lug too. all you need for this motor swap is SI mounts(2 main ones) and SI shift linkage. the ITR p73 ecu will bolt directly onto your EX harness, you can try it right now, see how it runs.

i have a 97 like you. so i know what im talkin bout. let me know if you get stuck

 

ek-to-tha-max--- thanks alot man.you cleared alot up for me
i know all bout that obd junk i just didnt know if my stock harness will work on the dohc dizzy and all.just get SI rear tranny mount and timing belt mount? how will i know which ones the crank sensor to extend? will i have a check engine light?

any more info..im me on aol- ihateyounj

 

Ya, heres all the info you need here:

its not exactly plug and play but its close.

'97-'98 ITR's don't have IMM in the ECU. '00-'01 are the ones with the IMM.

 

did you not just read the link i put on here? what else is there to bump? READ IT!

that thread does nothing for me

 

i was wondering if you get a itr motor and dont have 5 lug will you have axle fitment problems?

 

axle problems?

 

bump becuase i am doing the same swap in my 96 dx in a week or two

 

like problems getting the 36 mm into the 32 mm usdm hubs

 

ONLY the JDM ITR uses 36mm hub/axles. USDM does NOT. You can use any b-series axles and you will be fine.

hypothetical question, what if it was a ob2a non vtec ek, would a obd2a ls motor work as plug and play like above mentioned? sorry dont mean to hijack.
