Default Newbie stupidy

Hi, everyone just have a few questions

1) I am looking to swap a B16A2 in to my 95 hatchback has anyone out there done this and how hard was it?

2) If I put a JDM SiR instrument Cluster will it plug straight in or will i have to get out the wire cutters ??


Thanks for any help

1. done it and its simple if you have all the tools required and read up on it.
2. should be direct plug and play.

You didnt even look at a thread before making this one did you? You just asked if anyone has swapped a B Series into a hatchback.

reason I don't think so is
JDM=Kilometers
USDM=Miles?

oh and diearzte2 - "my boy" could also refer to my son... not always a gay thing...

huh? he's asking to put the entire JDM cluster in...

It's a direct PnP...

JDM=Kilometers
USDM=Miles?

That has nothing to do with it pluggin up. Just difference in reading speed.

I'm not trying to argue, just understand...
So it will plug in but will it display the correct speed, in that the signal is still coming from a USDM ECU &lt;(Assumption). So wouldn't the signal being sent possibly move the needle different amounts?

Nope, it's a direct drop in. It'll read in KM instead of MPH, but 100km will read where 62mph is.
