has anyone ever done this? so im picking up a da shell for next to nothing, i have a complete y7 with si trans just sitting in my garage, my question is there any "stock" mounts that would work? the tranny is a hydro si was planning on using the hydro to cable convertion as a cable si d series trans is hard to come by. i would think my stock crx linkages would work and the rear t braket/mount from a crx would work. anyone have any experience? and ya i know its gonna be sloooowwww and i dont care, just want a dd.

 

im thinking id prob had to fab my own pass side mount, witch id rather not have to but wouldnt be to bad i guess

 

It's called a DA5... Just find mounts from one, and a single cam will drop right it. But the question is, WHY??

 

is that jap spec? cause if all goes right ill only be not even 500 into this and the shell is pretty clean, just want something to tool around town with, id rather put my money into my other project, you know of any distributors for the da5 mounts? ebays not pulling up anything and i dont really know where else to look

 

I think it's EDM and JDM, I've mainly seen them in New Zealand though.

 

sell the y7 and pick yourself up a nice b-series!

 

I say keep the y7 and turbo, since you already have it and will only be 500 in it.

 

i already got my b series and my turbo in my crx , this is dd gas sipper

 

Well the weight to power ratio of a single cam in an integra will cause the gas mileage to be sufficiantly worse than if it were in a CRX. Sell it for a B18a/b, they go for like $500-$700

 

ya i no but i dont want to spend any money, i prob have enough spare ls parts to build one, i wanna do something different tho

 

It'll be different, I'll give you that, but it will be like a b16 running on 3 cylinders lol.

I say, swap in the single cam, get JDM 1 piece headlights, JDM thin side moldings, and a DA5 vin tag for the engine bay. Now that would be different, because DA5's are as rare as pale chicks at the Jersey shore haha

 

itd be hard to believe that it would be worse then my hf when it was stock, i have the si trans so itll have a little gear to make up for some of the power loss

 

I had a b16 in a da and it was dog slow I couldn't even imagine what a single would be like!
