95 del sol 1.5 non vtec to a 95 JDM GSR vtec AUTO
Yes 95 JDM GSR AUTO ok got the engine in and next wireharness I went to the junkyard and got a 95 non vtec GSR AUTO full wireharness need to know what I need and don't need like dadash? The delsol is a 5speed has no wire for a auto and I got the junkyards automatic ecu and need a schematic to see what I need and don't has someone done this and can help me she can't drive stick and loves the car so I make it a auto for her THANKS
was the car an auto already if you're thinking you can manual to auto you'll be sadly mistaken. You need the dash harness also I'm guessing you don't live in north America if you can find auto gsr's at the junk yard....
There was never a GSR with an automatic, in any country. Then again, there is no such thing as a JDM GSR either...
^^ I've installed and driven one so yes it does exist. Pretty sweet set-up, especially for someone that DD's a lot in traffic and doesn't want to drive a standard transmission.
Do you know why he's doing an automatic GSR? Do you know if he's crippled, one legged, disabled from the waste down? OP can do what he pleases if he wants to do an auto gsr swap so be it. Its been done before but for an OBD2 setup.

He never said he was disabled, so assuming so would be highly prejudicial.
1. the people that keep saying they never made auto gsr are dumb as f**k, they did make them but not alot.
2. crazyhouse, my last eg civic had a automatic b18 swap, was fun for daily driving and just to cruise with. also was fun to see peoples expressions when they saw the auto shifter inside then look under the hood and see a b18.
3. To the op. contact rywire they make custom auto b swap harnesses, mine cost around $200+shipping, if your good at wiring then good luck trying it yourself. also you cant use the transmission mount unless your gonna make a custom one. you may also need to go back to the junkyard and get the tcm from the car you pulled the harness from.

Automatics might be easier to drive, but they definitely sap power.

It shouldn't matter why he wants to do it, for you to give a negative reply in his post for request on help getting an auto jdm gsr into his del sol and call out his old lady instead of pointing him in the right direction is the dumbest and immature thing to do. He'll make a decision to do what he wants to his car, 5spd or auto. Rather be different and do something different to learn more about my car and how everything is designed to work together.
but nahh actually they were pretty cool with it and had alot of positive comments cuz it was something different then everyone else's swap
Find a single piece of marketing, advertising, repair, anything, showing such. Prove it, or stfu with the name calling.
Now, if you want to discuss the automatic B18C available in the Si-vtec or SiR-G, that might be a different story, but there was never an automatic GSR.
I read a post YOU made about taking your d series civic TO A SHOP to change an alternator. Please help people answer their questions instead of antagonizing them. I realize that to be cast in Fast and Furious, you must drive a manual transmission at all times until the end of time, but in real life many people don't. Manual transmission cars are a preference of mine, but an auto D/D can be nice, especially when you live somewhere like Chicago, like I used to. You should also take notice that manual transmissions are being phased out by technologically advanced automatics. (Look at Mercedes Benz's current lineup, Acura, ETC.) Keep slamming gears and riding the redline in that 20 year old Civic EX, one day everyone will see it your way.

Um, no. They didn't. At all, in any way, shape or form.

That alternator thingy was from a year ago when I just bought the car and hated the fact that the alternator was buried in a tight spot, whereas alternators I had previously changed were either RWD or mounted right where you can reach it (88 escort).
I don't slam gears, and I hardly ever venture to redline. Maybe a weekly trip to ye olde 4800 revs for a little vtech fun.

Your going to come back and say no, that's a sir/g auto transmission swap from Japan when you know damn well it's a freaking GSR with slightly higher compression than the USDM GSR.
Wow this thread. Let's clear up some things so the OP isn't totally lost:
-Acura (Honda) NEVER produced a North American GSR model Integra with an automatic transmission (don't believe me check Honda's own website or I can post pics from the service manual if you want me too http://www.honda.com/search/?s=Acura...a#newsandviews)
-the JDM model SIR-G was available with an automatic B18C engine but Honda NEVER produced a JDM "GSR" model. The engine has 10HP less than the manual counterpart at 170 and redline was 7600 RPMs
-most of the confusion is people call the B18C/C1 engine a "GSR" engine so that ebay listing probably uses that verbiage because people are more familiar with "GSR" rather than "SIR-G" but is technically incorrect
-the SIR-G automatic ECU uses an internal TCU to control the transmission but you will need an adapter harness for OBD1 and Rywire makes one so no dash harness needed unless you are converting from 5 speed to auto (don't do this)
-auto to manual swap can be done in way less than 2 weeks and for way less than 1600 dollars unless that includes the transmission and engine itself?
-if you want more info you may contact this user as he has done the swap https://honda-tech.com/forums/showth...7432&styleid=2

Really.. so I must have an Sir-g swap in my civic then but man it looks just like a gsr.. No **** There's no trim of a GSR in japan but are you telling me that gsr or I'm sorry Sir-G swap above isn't nearly identical to the usdm gsr? That's like flaming on people over calling eg coupe, ek coupe etc Come on, we ALL know what it is, no reason to get all technical from the trim the motor came from.
So when people ask me what motor I have the proper response is b18c Sir-G NOT b18c type r or b18c gsr right?

If you know how the OP can work the less than supported method of going 5 speed manual to the automatic transmission with the SiR-G motor, that would be most helpful.

Btw, yes silly isn't? 2 weeks to do a 5spd swap and not to mention the cost. He must have not done it himself but wants to brag about doing it.
Really.. so I must have an Sir-g swap in my civic then but man it looks just like a gsr..

Very hurt.I say jdm gsr because then I would have to explain everything in this forum every time someone doesn't get it. If you go back in the forum I'm not saying your wrong, just an easier way to refer to its usdm counterpart.
I agree 
For the op my guess would be that would at least need the following:
-94-95 del sol auto engine harness (92-95 civic may work?)
-94-95 del sol auto cabin harness (92-95 Civic may work?)
-shift cables, shifter and basically any other auto parts that go with the shifter assembly
-auto gauge cluster if you want the PRND1D2
-not sure what axles and half shaft that engine would use
-not sure what mounts
-radiator with auto cooler lines
