Default JDM b16a into EF HELP!

Okay here is the deal. I got a 91 civic SI car had a HF swap in it with SI transmission. I orderd a jdmb16a. I got a b16a from a 92-95 civic, a pr3 ECU, god knows what axles. My first problem is the Axles wont fit into my Break rotors. They are to big, it has an obd1 Disributor on it was told to jsut change the connectors on ym obd0 Si harness and i would be fine. I got a sensor on the back of the b sereis that takes one wire but on the back of the D series it has two wires, it under the intake manifold. I have tried searching for this cant seem to find anything.

the 2 wires are probably for the fan switch in the back of the block

u need some frankenstein axles..meaning...

"For the axles, I used 90 integra axle for the passenger side. Driver side is a 89 integra axle is a 90 integra inner joint. I use to have the click issue, and tried this axle combo, it has lasted me 5-6 years w/o any issues."

quoted off my friend who has a build crx b16a. he goes to the track every now and then...use this combo..people will tell you to use '90 DA axles which is wrong..i have that combo on my ef b16 and i'm having axle issues. i might just buy some from swapshop racing..they're about 170 for custom b-series axles.

Why are your axles going into your brake rotor? That seems unsafe.

you need different knuckles/spindles to fit your axels. I'm not sure which ones.
not sure about the wire on the back.

look through the FAQ at the top, you will find all you need to know.

if the car really is an Si with the Si suspension still intact, it should work. but if its not or the suspension isnt, then yes you will need different knuckles. if it had an HF motor are you sure it didnt have the hf trans to, then it would use the hf axles and knuckles.

i did the same swap to an 89 ef si and used the axels from my 92 teg with abs. they fit perfect and i never had a problem. you just have to remove the dust rings from the axels. it the one wire plug is the knock sensor and if you get an obd0 to obd1 conversion harness it will come with the wire you need.
