I need some major help on a b18a1 swap.
My question after reading a lot of different things in search for what I need to know.
Ok here is my swap job.I have a 1994 civic dx coupe.
This has an automatic tranny in it. Now I have a complete swap from a 1991 integra ls.
The entire front end as a matter of fact.That is a 5 speed b18a1.
Ok now I am wanting to do this swap soon but what exactly do I need.
I read that I need 94 and up integra axles for the swap to work.
I am hoping this is a straight bolt up deal here. I have also read that I will need a hasport motor mounts to do the job of mounting this engine in.
Question 1
Now what about the tranny it has a cable clutch not a hydro.Should I get a hydro conversion for this set up? Being that im making my car go from auto to 5 speed set up.
Question 2
Also which pedal set up should I use for this? Should I find some civic 5 speed pedal from that year to use or can I take the pedal out of the integra and swap them in.
Question 3
Now with that said what about ecu setup?I think I will be using a 94-95 PR4 for my ecu for this setup.I read this out of the book im using honda acura engine performance.
Question 4
Now my other question is my gauge cluster .It is an auto cluster can I use a civic 5 speed cluster or will I need to use the integra cluster?
Question 5
My civic has power steering and will I be able to keep it after the engine swap or should I just dump it and cap off the lines.
I have tried to include all of my question in this post so I can get all the answers I need in this post. I really hope I can get answers here because I plan on doing a big write up with pics to post on here on the job.That way I too can help out anyone in my situation.
Like everyone here has helped me out. Thanks everyone for your help in this matter
