93 EX Coupe Swap Info
50.63% noob here with a couple of questions... if your bored and need something to do answer the following please.
After thinking about different engine swaps ive finally come to the conclusion that an B18b+Gsr transmission(turbo later on) would do me well (budget of about
2-2.5k for swap and about 2k for turbo setup later on).
The car is a 93 EX Coupe:
1) What is needed to put a gsr transmission onto an ls engine? anything special or is it just a bolt on?
2) Will the EX wiring harness(I know the vtec wires will not be used) work and will the ecu work with the swap or will i need to use the LS ones?
3) Since i dont want to get a whole swap, and if i cant find a swap with a gsr transmission included.... what imperticular things do I need? Im going to try and fined a junkyard and get a whole swap except the tranny... so do i just get axels, linkage etc? I need specific parts if you can please.
4) I know you guys hate these questions.... but my goal with the swap+i/h/e is low 15's - high 14's if the track gods like me, and mid 13's with a turbo set up at around 8 psi, tuned. Do these times sound reasonable in a heavy coupe? The FI setup sounds reasonable, but the NA sounds kinda Iffy... Id feel kinda of crappy, if I just did the swap and got a 16.0 1/4 ( I know this engine is better used with turbo, but id like to get something out of it while I save for turbo)
5) The Car is white with black moldings (I plan on self painting white soon). I had a cpl decent pics of how id like it to look but i have formated my hard drive since then. So if you could post a cpl tasteful lowered white coupes w/ rims id appreciate it.
6) Any advice is appreciated, and if anyone with a simular setup could post their experiences/timeslips/dynos id appreciate it.
Thanks for putting up with me.
