hey guys,

Im about to buy a alternator of of a b18a1. will this work on my obd1 swapped crx with a b18b? and will it bolt up to the bracket on the motor?

,thanks

 

bump.

 

Hey man,
I think if you're OBD1 with your B18B in your rex then the OBD0 B18a dizzy won't work. I do believe that it will bolt up though.
As far as axles got for that swap I hear they're the same as b16 swaps into EFs which are 90-93 Integra axles with the outer dust boots on your steering knuckles removed. If you leave the dust boots in the axles will bind. So these are just OEM axles. Oh and your rex has to be a DX or Si... Hfs have smaller diameter splines in the steering knuckles and wont accept the Integ axles. If you do have an HF just get either DX or Si knuckles off of a 88-91 CRX/Civic or use the ones from a 90-93 Integra RS/LS/GS. With the integra ones you'll get bigger front brakes and everything bolts up just fine. I did a full disc swap off a 91 Integra onto my 91 Civic standard HB and it was cake.

wait, the dizzy is the distributor right? im talking about the alternator. the reason i ask is because my car was obd0...the plug is still an obd0 plug. but it was for a d-series motor. are the obd0 alternators for both b and d motors the same?

 

obd0 and obd1 alternators are the same, the obd1's have a little more amps but either will work and bolt up and plug in exactly the same. the plugs for d and b are the same, at least on my si they were not sure about the dx's though (OBD2's are different plugs altogether)

 

Yes and yes.

 

yes it will work because i have a b18b motor with a b18a obd0 alt in my car and it works fine

 

awesome. once again honda-tech.com ftw.
