there is alot of writeups on how to do the swaps you want to do. just search and read. you can also get a adapter to use a cable trans on a newer car. check out http://www.hasport.com/ and if you need any parts, let me know, ill give you a good price. check out my store also, its in my signature.

first off is your b18a OBD0 or OBDI?

As far as a manual to swap just do a search in the archives

You'll need basicly all clutch componets

pedal assy

clutch master cyl
slave cyl
lines
you'll need new mounts/ mounting brackets

go to the faq list, view the walk through for the install

easiest way to answer your question.

and in the future, your first stop should be the faqs before you ask questions.

What exactly are you looking for?
Friend and myself are just about finished swapping a B18a1 into his '94 hatch.


For starters...
- We're using the HASport EGBCC motor mount kit
- We're using the HASport cable conversion kit
- We're using a/the A1 transmission
- We're using a 94-01 passenger side axle
- We're using a 90-93 driver side axle (94-01 is male/femal, you need male/male)
- We're using shift linkage that came from the donor sedan, so I don't know exactly what model it came out of but I'm guessing a 94-01 Integra

We are currently waiting on a 94-01 Integra rear bracket because the 90-93 is 1 inch too short.

We are also waiting for a buddy to finish swapping a D16z6 into his '94 CX so we can use his harness and ECU.

I think that just about covers everything, or at least a good deal.

What?


he needed the conversion kit, if we're talking about the cable/hydro...I'm confused, because he's running the a1 cable with the cars hydro. If that's not what you were hinting at, I'm confused by your post

I did this swap myself and I ended up using

a p75 obd 1 computer
94+ driverside top mount
LS hydro tranny
93 dx wire harness
94+ LS Torque mounts
94+ integra back mount
you can use the stock D series to tranny mount if its a 93 civic DX MT
I also use a 92 integra shift linkage but it doesnt feel right

Switching to a hydro trans would eliminate the need for the the cable/hydro kit, maybe even one of the mounts, that's it. Not much of a change.
