I have a whole automatic 2010 civic dx swap (engine,transmission, wire harness ,mounts, ecu , axils , ) everything for a swap . I have an automatic Acura integra LS 2001 . It's my daily driver . With 192,xxx mi. The civic has around 60,xxx on motor . My question is , is it possible to swap this 2010 civic engine into my 2001 Acura integra ? What are the difficulties or troubles that can happen with this swap?!? It's just for a daily driver ! Not trying to do anything crazy with it . Help anyone.?!?

 

If the mounts and exhaust systems allow proper clearances and you can get the instrument panel to read the outputs, it shouldn't be a problem.

It will be the instruments that will be a problem. The eight gen Civics use a digital dash, the DC2 chassis used analog gauging for its readouts.

 

Thanks man ! So it should be an okay swap right ? Aside from the gauges ? I got the gauges as we'll off of the 8th gen . You think there's any way to make it fit in the integra dash ? Or any other way I can get around this problem ?

 

I am not sure the entire gauge cluster from the Civiccan be put in without cutting or other mods to the Integra dash. Check with your local performance shop and see if there are alternatives to the problem.

You might have to put in a racing display such as what you see in club circuit racers and such.

The rest of the swap is bolt in, plug and play.

 

Does the 06+ Civic SOHC motor have drive by wire like the Si? If so, you'll have to swap to a throttle body with a cable throttle and find a throttle cable that's the correct length. This swap sounds like way too much hassle for 140 HP.

 

Do the mounts really line up when swapping into an Integra?

 

Hasport has mounts for it, these engines use the K series mounts.

 

It sounds like a lot of work for really nothing... why not get another b18b instead? They are so cheap and it's a plug and play swap!
