I have a mint 88 civic sedan, only problem is it's automatic. Looking for more power, and I want to swap it. I know automatics get no love but I was just wondering if it's possible for me to buy a 90-95 integra automatic with a b18 and swap the whole thing over? My concern is the tranny mounts, as I doubt many people make automatic swap mounts. Would the tranny bolt in? Would the ECU also be an issues as I would maybe turbo it down the line and get hondata to tune it with, would that even be possible?
Swapping to a 5 speed is possible I just would rather keep it automatic as I've got a lazy left foot and the car would be a daily driver. Building the auto transmission isn't an issue, as level 10 makes pretty good stuff, although pricey.

If the b18 tranmission is a no-go what other engines could i keep it automatic with and swap it?
*EDIT*
The search button works wonders. I'm now thinking of buying a del sol or civic ex parts car with a d16z6 automatic and swapping the whole thing over. I really don't want a d-series but it looks like that would be less of a headache compared to anything else and it would have decent aftermarket support. I guess all I'm asking is would the d16z6 with auto tranny bolt up without mounts? Could I reuse my old transmission or would I be better off using the transmission that came in the civic ex due to gear ratios and stuff?

 

For the money you will be paying and for the performance you will NOT be gaining, you could just get a different car with an automatic.

 

I think I may just swap it to 5 speed. It's tough to find 88's in mint condition.

 

Anything is possible, it will just take longer and cost a little more, if no onw makes a swap mount for your application just have a machine shop make them, we had a machine shop make the mounts to install a 2000 Honda S2000 engine into a 76 Toyota Celica GT.
But as mentioned, kind of "more power" as automatic don't really go together, it's like an oxymoron.
A 94 up, [G3] Integra, [even an LS] with a GS-R 5 speed would be lots of fun in an 88 Civic , add some suspension and brake upgrades and it would spank a lot of stuff out there .94
