The better question: Why would you want to? 1.7's are notoriously unreliable, and the A1 doesn't even have VTEC.

Having owned one, I would easily say you're better off with that experience. Putting the coil on plug setup on a D16Y8 would be a far better use of your time.

Possibly. I'm not familiar with all versions of the D-series.

If you want that coil pack look. You can do it without a swap.
I don't know what's involved but it's probably just a mater of money, time and a little know how.

will it fit in my 1991 honda crx base model d15b2??
autotrans.. and i want a 5spd and its only going to cost me 250can for the 2003 model
and a 5spd trans and pedals and the rest of the assembly off a car in the junk yard for a d15b2 it a cable is 600can
i have to buy a clutch and fly wheel for both not a big deal i was going to buy a rebuild kit for engine and trans any ways price for both is very similar on thous engines
i need to save money for a role cage
