Well I just bought a B20z2 for my 92 cx hatch. and basically I am in need of some help/input with the swap.



As you can see in the pic there is some things that are missing, alternator, tranny, need some new injectors, and other knick knacks.

So far today I have removed the POS manifold and Intake manifold and cleaned it up a bit.




Going to need:
B series hydro tranny
integra shift linkage
obd1 dizzy
alternator
starter
injectors


OBD2 to OBD1 help?



So basically any help would be greatly appreciated! thanks

dood, alternator and starter, go to a parts store and itll be like 170 total. teger linkages go 100bux all dy on ebay. injectors, bahhh, 15bux here, ls dizzy, i sold mine for 60 bux, and a polished one i had went for 75. tranny maybe 300-500, gsr, ls, b16.trannys, not type rs

 

Are you going vtec?

 

go b20vtec or u wont really be to happy with a b20z

 

for the harness if you are using ODB2 componets get a +96+ LS harness if you plan on using OBD1 componets get a 94-95 LS harness.

componets = dizzy, alt, injectors

gl

* it doesn't matter if you choose OBD 1 or 2 componets they should not affect performance, just use what ever you can get cheaper*

 

or u can just use ur civic harness

if u use the civic harness you will have to modify the O2 wires,i believe the cx doesn't have a fourdues wire O2. the LS

i think youre thinking of the low compression B20B... either way, they pull hard as expletive.

werd
cheapest ive seen em are like $550+

 

Yea it's a b20z much higher compression as appose to the B20b's. I'm just going to go with an obd1 integra wireing harness for the engine bay. So if anyone has any of the parts I need lemme know

 

its only like 8 points higher than a b20b. b20b is 8.8:1 youre 9.6:1. But it makes for more fun while driving.

good luck.

 

very torqey for a honda motor. massage the top end of the power band a bit and youve got a great all around motor

Massage the top end? Huh? I need a massage on my lower end. What exactly did you mean by that?

did he just say "massage the top end?"

 

Well that mere 8 point higher c/r is a difference of 126hp on the b20b and 146 on the B20z. I actually use to own a 94 integra with a b20b swap and managed to pull a 14.8 pretty much stock. so im excited to see what this crv powered cx hatch is gunna do! thanks for the help guys, just got the flex plate off and the dizzy installed along with getting all the grime and crap off the block.

 

I think you also need to change the intake mani on that motor too...i kno i did when i did my swap.

I wasnt disputting the fact it made more power, just saying is all.

 

nah it's cool man, neither was I .....And yes. I know I have to change the intake manifold, or else I would have to cut a hole in my firewall for the I/M....I have an LS I/M on it's way

 

hey there, new to THIS forum, but longtime reader. i'm also doing B20 swap into 92VX. what engine mounts are you going to use? i am under the impression that i need to get a few gen3 teggy mounts.

 

Yea I'm just going with G3 integra mounts, stockers

 

I agree you don't need vtec to have fun w/ a B20z2... just toss in some crower cams and go. I have a B20z2 + GSR tranny swap for sale BTW
