i have a 1988 hatchback dx 1.5 i have a d16 motor can i use my stock tranny for this swap or no realy not sure if i can i would think u can since iam not going b-series thankx guys in advance...

 

i dont see why there would be any problem bolting a tranny off of a d15 on to a d16. I did it in my 88 crx dx when i went sohc zc and it all worked out good.

 

Yes you can!!!!!! but there are some differences from 1.5 to a 1.6 such as flywheel
also is it a 4 speed or a 5 speed tranny?????

 

its a 5 speed tranny,,,,so i need a 1.6 flywheel??

 

Yes if your going to use the 1.6 motor,,,, all single cam trannys are the same!! unless there cable or hydro or a gay-lude 2.2 single cam tranny... but good luck with your swap man!!!!!

 

so do i need a 1.5 or 1.6 flywheel?

 

If you are going with the 1.6 motor use the 1.6 fly wheel
If you are going with the 1.5 motor use the 1.5 fly wheel

 

thankx man i went to autozone today i bought a flywheel and there the same for a 1.5 and 1.6 same part number and everything

 

88 89 and 90-91 are different from each other, so if you don't know the year of the motor just use the old 88' flywheel,clutch,pressure plate and you'll be fine

 

Guys, Guys Guys... The motor year or model trim doesn't matter. All that matters is that the motor is a D-Series. Flywheels and clutchs match to the transmission you wish to use. You are right that the flywheels and clutches vary between years. To figure out the year of your transmission you can count the number of 'rings' that are machined into the very end of the trannys inputshaft (closest to the motor and flywheel)



No Rings = 1988
1 Ring = 1989
2 Rings = 1990-91

Updated Pic for ya.

 

Yes you can but you just gotta watch your splines 88 is a weird year after 88 everything is pretty much compatible.

 

I read the 88 was the test mule, being the first model year of the 4Gs. So, I would imagine the flywheel would be different.

Are you plannig to also do an MPFI Swap? 'Cause you're gonna need the wiring harness from the Si, along w/the ECU.

I did an MPFI Swap on my 89 Civic DX hb, I took the Si head, cam, intake manifold, ECU and wiring harness and installed them on the 1.5 block. Makes a big difference in the car's pickup. Not that it's a rocket, but much better than the DPFI.

 

i have a 88 crx\hf can a b20 bolt up to my trans? If not what mod's do i have to do?

 

is this some kind of noobsRus thread or something?

your 88 crx hf has a 1.5l d series transmission, a b20 has a 1.8l B series transmission...
if you dont know that a b and d series tranny wont bolt up then you are not ready to do a b series motor swap...

to put a b series anything into an ef you need different tranny, ecu, axles, motor mounts, shift linkage, and intermediate shaft...

 

thanx for the info
