Update

pulled the old crappy engine out and installed the gsr swap ....runs good really good..its open header though and its way too loud

obd2 jdm gsr swap
hasport mounts (hydro trans)
hasport cable to hydro bracket
DA rear T bracket
auto to manual swap
pedals, throttle cable, clutch cable came from 89 crx(pedals fit perfect)
shift linkage from 99 integra gsr(cut, shortened about 3 1/2inch and welded)
obd1 conversion(jumper harness), jdm gsr ecu, no check engine lights, obd2 dizzy

i did all the wiring myself including the auto to manual wires at the center console and
wiring for the dizzy and eliminating the resistor box, if anyone needs any info on wiring
let me know i have alot of notes

thnks that mcds was good

 

bump clean build GL!

 

washed her for the first time since i bought it

tosss your lil hitch hicker and itll look better

 

nice. The rims look smooth, and that center console is WAY slicker than the stock piece.

so is it RT4WD? or you just have the sticker on the back?

 

it was a real rt4wd but it was auto so i decided to just swap it for the gsr and keep it fwd until i have the funds to maybe to a crv tranny n drivetrain, it still had the rear and i have the driveshaft in the garage

 

those invisible fogs are sick

 

Looks very nice, wish we here in Portugal had Civic Shuttles

 

what are u talkin about?

 

I think he's talking about the foglights you said that you're going to install yesterday

 

i lied lol

 

nice, CRV should be a fun swap!
I want to add vtec to my wimpy 1.6, but wiring ECUs always makes me nervous

 

just convert obd1 its real simple...and nice blog i always wanted a red wagon

 

thanks man. she's my ugly duckling
I may give it a try

 

Clean little Wagon bro!
I loved it when mine was stock height, stock 13"s wheels, and a stocking looking exhaust.
