A friend of mine is putting a b16a2 from a 99 Si donor car into his integ LS....what all does he need from the Si??

and I know people will ask why don't he just do an LSVTEC swap..cuz i'm gettin his LS engine....bwahahaha....

 

well besides exactly what u said, thats a big waste of his time. LSs with bolt ons run the same as SIs. but at least u get his old motor.
what yr is his teg? u will need ECU, a new block mount (he needs to keep his off his B18), new rear tranny mount (keep B18 also). tranny and wiring harness depend on the yr of the car.

 

why not ls/vtec?

 

well he got the Si motor for exchange of his b18b and cash...then i bought the b18b from the other guy....

 

once i put in the b18b i'm gonna boost it!!

 

well...good for you...sucks for your friend... I had a 96 Integra Ls with a jdm b16a2.....SUCKS!! He will definitely feel it.

 

Bah...he can use all of his stock mounts. You were right about using the driverside mount bracket on the block, but that's it. He can use his ls engine harness and add the wires, but he cant use the si harness, thats only good for the plugs. So if his car is 99-00, he can use the ecu, injectors and what not. If his car is anything before that, he cant use the ecu unless he gets an adapter harness. If his car is obd1, I would suggest pulling the injectors off of the ls motor and using those.

 

Why in the hell would you put a B16 in a Teg. Rediculous.......

 

Why would you put a b18b in an ex? Your car probably weighs the same, if not more than an integra.

 

read the post

 

i said it a bit funny and said new but i said to keep his old rear tranny mount, but in my post i said new rear tranny mount. so i obviously confused someone, but in my head it was stated correctly. either way, mine or jedi master, we both said it the same.

so if his car is before 99-00 he can't use the Si ecu?? but to make it work he'll have to get the obd1 to obd2 harness right?! if so, where can he buy this harness from??

My friend's integra weighs 2300lbs. And that's a fact! Dont talk ****, you dont have much to brag about yourself.

 

Hit up Kenji on the board, he makes them. Or look on http://www.jdmhondaparts.com. A lot of people sell them.

 

so the b16a2 will drop right in using the LS stock mounts..?? just wanting to clarify..

and gutted down to 2300lbs would mean no AC, no interior and no heater core. integs r pigs, even just the shell. i highly doubt its 2300 unless mentioned above.

 

That isnt the point though, the point is...you were making fun of a guy for putting a b16a in his integra. Surely its an odd swap, but having a b18b in an ex isnt so great either. So if you dont have anything nice to say....

Its an integra rs, comes with no a/c, you're right. And the powersteering is removed. But everything else is stock.

Alright, to settle the score, my 1996 integra rs weighs 2300, with full interior, the only thing removed is power steering. I gaurantee you went and weighed an ex it would weigh around 2500. So your the one that needs to get hit with the . So putting a b16 into an integra is not that ridiculous. I went with my friend to weigh his 96 civic hatch and it weighed 40 more pounds than my integra. And people would say a b16 in a hatch is a good swap, so why can't it work for an integra also. I'm not going out recommending it, I'm just trying to make you realize you need to think before you go running your mouth about things you don't know.
