hi guys,

does someone of you know how a CRX runs @ b18c4 ?
its the EU / UK Civic hatch 169 hp..

im thinking about to swap it into my CRX..

 

Just get k series

 

too expensive in germany... costs are ~7000€ which are 10k$..

 

What do you currently have?

 

I have a 98 b18cr in my 88 hf and i love the tourqe that it delivers. I just hate the fact that i have no traction.

 

^Thats not the motors fault hahaha.

 

like any other engine

i have more tq than you have power and have no issues with traction

 

my crx is at 124 hp stock d16z5 engine... i think its only produced in europe... well i think you call it ZC.. its the non vtec...

the b18c4 is :
1996–2000 UK Civic 1.8i VTi 5-door Hatch
1996–2000 UK Civic Aerodeck 1.8i VTi 5-door Wagon
1998–1999 EU Civic Aerodeck 1.8i VTi 5-door Wagon
1998–1999 EU Civic 1.8i VTi 5-door Hatch

maybe this could help u

 

The B18C4 is Europe's version of the 1.8L type r. It can be swapped into your car, just like any other B series. What did you want to know??

 

+1. It's just another B series VTEC engine that can be swapped in, little to no problem

 

B18c4 is equivalent to a gsr

 

i just wanted to know if a crx is running well with this engine..
how much HP can you get from a c4 ?

what has to be changed when swapping ? do i need complete new axles or just changing the VTi steering knuckle? i heard this is possible so i can use 282 brakes (front) instead of my 242..
which tranny would you use ? the s9b tranny comes with a lsd but i heard its too long...


thanks for ur help guys..

 

IM HAPPY FOR YOU BLU CIVIC, THAT YOU HAVE MORE TORQUE THAN i HAVE HORSEPOWER. I WAS SIMPLY STATING THAT THE ENGINE IS AWSOME. AND THAT I HAVE TRACTION ISSUES WITH MY CURRENT WHEEL & TIRE SETUP.

 

THANKS, I'M HAPPY FOR ME TOO. PROBABLY NEED A NEW DRIVER MOD, SHOULD HELP WITH YOUR TRACTION ISSUES WITH YOUR CURRENT WHEEL & TIRE SETUP

 

The b18c4 came in civic MB6's here in europe, i know we had a guy running one in his eg at my local honda club. and it was pretty fast, but he wasnt much faster than guys running B16's. Now if this is due to the driver i dont know.
But he did regret not just saving up for a B18c6 ( integra engine ).

 

well the engine wont stay stock...

 

has someone of you ever swapped a b18c4 / GSR into a CRX ?? could you tell me some difficulties which may occur ?

can i take the MB6 / MC2 axles 1:1 without any problems ?

 

Swap has been done countless times. Search....read....learn....

Out of the 142,000+ results google gives, im pretty sure you can figure out a swap that has been done well over a decade ago.
