ok SOHC ZC motor...direct swap into my 88 CRX SI...enigne is missing injectors, i can use the SI ones off my D16a6? its also missing the sensor next to the oil filter...is that the oil pressure switch or thermal switch? again i can use all the d16a6 ones if i missing any right?

ok for tranny..the motor comes with tranny, intermediate shaft...not sure if its the ZC but i'll know tm...if its the ZC int shaft...i just need 90-93 integra axles and take out dust ring on the hub? will it fit my 88 hubs? i'm about confused about reading all the search cuz some ppl said 87-89 integra axes...and otehr said some accord ones....

for the clutch..i kno 88 has 20 splines? 89-91 has 21 or something...and the 88-89 has smaller clutch surface then the 90-91....so is there a way of telling the year for tranny and flywheel?? if i decide to just use my SI tranny off my 88 CRX SI for now...can i just use the flywheel from the a6 bolt it up to the ZC and use the clutch i'm using now? will my current axles be ok? only thing axles has to be mate with is tranny correct?

also for seals...all the same as the a6..such as crank, rear, valve cover, cam, only thing different is the tranny axles seal right?

help me if i'm incorrect...i want to order all parts by this week so i can get the swap going ASAP....

 

SOHC ZC is pretty much the same motor as the D16a6 that was in your car. All your old parts will swap over.

 

ok the guy selling the tranny and motor is throwing in some axles that he used for his civic hatch...but hes not sure what it came from....is there a way to tell a difference btwn civic and integra axles? how would i know if it fits the tranny and stuff?

 

help?

 

just use your tranny axles clutch and flywheel. the zc tranny has better gears but worse final drive. if you really want to you could put the zc gearsets in your SI tranny and have a very short OEM tranny. no point in using the zc tranny unless its got the LSD.

everything else is identical to your a6

 

well my tranny grinds a little...so if it was gonna come with a ZC one then i wanted to change it as well thanks

 

ok i got the motor today....is the crank pulley the same as the a6? looks different.....if anyone knows please let me know...i would rather use the a6 one because its a lot cleaner...

 

ok tried taking out the ******* tranny off the block....removed the 5 bolts...then the lower one on back oil filter side....then went to remove the l bracket one on the exhaust side lower...the bolt was rounded offf....so i couldn't get to it...so instead i removed the bolts that mount it to the block...so its loose...but the damn tranny still won't come off....the tranny is completly loose.....but it just the bottom seems to get stuck.....help....

 

crank pulley might look differant, they are interchangeable though. as for the tranny not coming off, you have the starter off??? if so you might just have to fight it, mine was a bitch too, had to smack the crap out of it. oh, you have the inspection plate off???

 

inspection plate? is that the bottom piece covering the flywheel? i removed the one 10mm bolt that it attaches too and still nothing....

 

you have to take off that lower flywheel cover

also where can i find the intermedite shaft for the ZC? engine dismantlers....how comme i keep reading and reading the archives and i find different opinions on axles, and hte intermediate shaft...

some ppl said the SOHC ZC tranny...u can just use the SI axles and be fine..its the DOHC ZC tranny that u need intermediate shaft....but isn't the tranny the same?......


Modified by supracrx at 7:08 PM 1/1/2007

 

and since it came with no intermediate shaft...the ZC tranny i can't use....

if i use my 88 SI tranny..can i just use the flywheel, clutch setup on my current motor and swap it on the SOHC...i mean the flywheel will be ok right?

ok did some more searching...found out that the 88 SI crank pulley might not fit because of the snout diameter? anyone confirm this?


Modified by supracrx at 11:18 PM 1/1/2007

 

help before i go buy some parts for it...not sure about the crank pulley

 

if it was an A6 it will fit, everything is totally interchangeable between A6 adn sohc ZC

 

even btwn the 88 and 89-91? i kno the 88 SI are an oddball year...and my crx is the 88.....

 

only probs you will have are with the clutch spline stuff...

 

well if i reuse the clutch that i have now...and then the flywheel i should be ok right? since the splines only is in relation to the clutch disk, preesure plate?

 

correct

 

where do you intend to get your car smogged at?

 

i know someone...

ok is all the specs for the timing, valve adjustment all the same as the a6...i'm gonna assume so since its basically the same engine

dont assume its basically the same, assume its IDENTICAL with a differant engine code.

 

so is it the same? i tried searching and nothing/....
