What is the easiest swap for my 92 hatch?

 

D15B8

 

d16z6 or ne b series. ppl will probly tell u to search though.

 

it all depends. What type of hatch is it? Is it wired for VTEC or not, what do you want to do with your hatch, etc. Way to many verables to tell you a easiest and best swap cause anything could be easy and best in different peoples eyes. And since you simply dont know stick with what you have. Or Search.

 

even if your car is not a starndard VTEC model (any 92 hatch was wired for vtec, as well as any del sol regardless of model, VX, EX, or SI civic) To wire up vtec, you only have to run 2 wires, and it is very easy to do. If you stay the same OBD version, the most your going to have to run is 7 wires for B-series swap.

 

any b seris swap is cake. hard to go wrong with a 98+ jdm type r motor/tranny

 

A B series most likely.

Or just save your money and go FI.

 

the hatch is a 92 vx, 5speed, will i need new shift linkage,axles or mounts to drop the b16 into it?

it's '92.. it's already wired for vtec.

Yes. You do need the axels/linkage/mounts.

The parts can be sourced from 93+ tegs. You'll also need a new throttle cable.

Go with the full swap.

...Got mine from hmotors and had everything needed ('cept throttle cable - $25 at a dealership). It was easy as hell (though the rear mount was a brief struggle ).

 

go with the b16a2
