hey guys.. iv been searching for a wile and cant find any info
the starter on my b16a1 is shot...

so i got another (used) starter from a buddy but its dead aswell.,
is there a way i can use a starter from a d16 i have a brand new one sitting in my closet for my crx...

any info will help..

 

im not sure but if you allready have it why not try and see if it will bolt up?

 

so i just check if the crx starter will bolt up and it wont..
it mounts in the holes perfectly..

but the where is bolts go into the tranny to hold it in place its to small... off maby 1/4 inch off...

most of the time its only the solenoid(smaller round thing) that fails, you might be able to swap solenoids from the d series starter

 

I had some starter issues and there is really no short cut with swapping d series components to a b series shell. I've tried and failed. you can try it but i would not recommend doing it. My advice is to look at an auto zone and get a starter for a 95 integra gsr.

Also: Have you confirmed that you NEED a new starter? When i was going through this trouble, I had a bad connection at my grounds. Sounds simple however its definitely worth looking at it again.

Goodluck

 

All B series starters arent the same. There is a Mitsuba brand and Denso. The Denso is more popular with Acuras(b18's) and the Mitsuba is common with the B series Hondas(b16's). My y1 trans has a Mitsuba and I'd bet yours is the same. Ive personally tried using Denso starters in the place of a Mitsuba. It didnt work. The pinion hits the flywheel incorrectly and it never contacts the ring gear. BTW the denso starters(if thats what you have) are easily rebuildable, the Mitsubas arent rebuildable at all. hth
