Default 1st gen b16 + 89 dx hatch

recently the timing belt kicked the bucket on my stock d15. i figured it would since its close to hitting the 100,000 mile mark. its not the best time for it to happen but luckily it happened when i have 1500 to pick a new motor. i was planning on a b16 anyway but right now i only have enough for a 1st gen b16. for now i want to get it in the car and running so i have wheels again. later on i want to convert to obd1 but i dont know if there will be bigger problems later to do the switch and besides the distributer, injectors, and ecu if there is anything else i need to go obd1. the site i am looking to by from gives the ecu(pr3) and harness(obd0). another question i have is what axles i will need. feedback is greatly appreaciated since without my car i have no way to get to work or see my g/f 90 miles away

90 miles away! that is a drive . . . .or i should say a walk.


I have a 90 hatch that i just picked up a month ago, with a B16 and Obd0, I believe. I bought the car and the guy that was selling it didn't know what was done to it other than a engine swap. I have seen those motors for pretty cheap, and easy to work with. It is a fun ride in the car and i enjoy it.

1500 is not enough to do a b16 in an ef.

you need:

b-series mounts
90 integra axles NON ABS
a shift linkage that will work (modified integra or hasport)
