This summer I bought a 1991 Acura integra Rs off some guy from my school. I got it for 120 $. It had 4" cut springs, open header and an intake that would stick about 2 feet out of the hood...it was awfull. I tightened the clutch, stripped it and used it as a drag car at my local 1/8th mile track. I had diesel oil in it and was still burning about 1 litre per 5-6 races, it was smoking like crazy but I had a lot of fun with it. Now I have a 1991 honda civic Dx beater with a d16a6. Instead of sending the integra to the scrap yard, what parts can I take from it and put in my civic? Appart from the obvious engine swap, which I wont do since the engine has 350 000 km and it smoking oil like crazy, what parts can I swap that are better than the parts on my civic?

I was thinking:
-brake booster
-ecu (some people told me there would be a gain)
-rear disk conversion (front ones are dead)
-cluster

is there anything else?

 

Cluster for sure, i have the pinouts and a picture of said product.

I'm not sure about the brake booster, but if you do the rear disk ( ) you'll want the MC and and the proportioning valve, etc.

No gain with a different ECU.

You could always sell the B parts if you don't plan on a swap. You could try to salvage at least a bare block if the pistons are in bad shape. Transmission any good? You might be able to sell the interior. Dizzy even too.

 

thanks for the reply!

yeah I will probably just sell everything appart or sell the whole chassis with motor and interior for like 200 bucks! the tranny is still good, but the clutch disk must be as thin as a sheet of paper!

 

Also, in my 91 dx, the speedometer isn`t working, can I use the speedo cable from the teg?

 

Speedo cables are the same, if you can, try to force a small bit of grease into the cable before you swap, make sure she turns smooth

 

awesome!

last question, I have an EG parts car in my drive way, with a b18b1 swap thats going into my projet 89 Si, will the throttle body from the 98 b18b fit onto my d16a6 manifold?

I have searched but no one said anything about the d16a6 manifold, I know the b18a wont work though, thats why im asking.
