thsis is an actual serious question

exactly what would be needed to swap in a jdm itr long block into a 98 crv awd? will the tranny and awd bolt right on? what motor mounts?

how complicated would it be to convert the awd into a fwd by utilizing the itr tranny? custom axles? custom shift linkage?

 

you can just bolt it in, use the crv mounts, the tranny will bolt up if you still want the awd.

 

that gonna be a one bad *** crv..

if your from jersey, i might have seen you/your car on
rt.3 yestrday(thur) looks GOOD!!

 

i looked everything myself cause i was gonna try it myself

you need 5 speed shift linkage off a crv,the front axles off a crv but everything should hook together since they're both a b series...

also i had to make another account 8(

 

Anything is possible.

 

You are wrong, you need to use the whole tranny from a crv.
Also all the mounts off the b20, and wire in vtec and prob get
a conversion harness.

Best to get a 5spd crv, i redline 4th gear at 85mph so its a very
short geared quick tranny, auto's are junk.

ITR swap is EASY, and my stock B20 will still whoop you up

 

It shouldn't be too hard, but why would you want to? You could build the B20 block , slap b16 head on it with some decent cams and have a much better motor.

 

why not a b18c turbo swap? it will fit better

 

how would a b18c turbo swap fit better than a b18c?

 

sorry, I thought they was talking about k20a from dc5 type r

 

B series motor would fit better in a crv.

 

Seriously, a B20 vtec is the way to go with a CRV.

 

OEM reliability>b20v

 

My stock boosted B20 would smack down a b20/vtec.

TRUTH

 

Thanks for wasting bandwidth

 

type R should fit just wiring would be a small issue like your Vtec and knock sensor and being obd2 im sure you would have to wire in the crank sensor as well pending if the CTR is obd1 or 2

 

cant wait to see! this pics when you do it?

 

are you going to start this CRV TYPE R.... or did you just want to know...bc if you are going to start this... bad ***

 

this would be one bad *** CRV

 

OMG I thought about doing this to my brothers 01 CRV today! lol

He needs to replace his head and I told him he should just swap in a ITR motor! lol He thought I was stupid and that it wouldn't fit in and work! but why not?! haha I told him about CRV engines in other Hondas so why not other honda B-series engine in his CRV!

btw his is a Manual so if we sell his Civic, I'm gonna make him do this!

I might even beat you to this NSXRguy! lol (maybe)

 

2nd that

 

Its is pretty much a direct swap and super easy.

 

so why can't a B20vtec be reliable?

 

just NAAAWZ it LOL

 

it's a basic easy swap. I dont know whay you guys are getting so excited over it. It's the same as doing a swap in a civic for christs sake. You just have to use the oem tranny.
