Default b16 swap help

my b16 is coming with an AC compressor, do i still need the bracket from hasport? do i need to get a rear tranny bracket too? if i use the hubs off of a teg can i still use my stock (91 Hf) brakes?

if you use the teg hubs make sure its the 90-93 ones....and no you cant use the hf brakes...use the integra ones...
you dont need a throttle cable...you can just modify the bracket that holds it to the manifold

no...im not too sure about the AC thing but if i were you id get the hasport bracket..., it isnt that hard...pull the 14mm bolt on the back of the caliper....watch out for the brake fluid so plug the line...put the teg ones on....put the 14 back on...bleed your brakes ...and your pretty much set...oh and your rotors...leave um on the knuckles ....

i had the teg brakes on mines but now i got the hf's...they suck...id go back to the teg brakes any day

the ac compressor that comes with the b16a will not fit using the hasport mount or any mount whatsoever. it is designed around the usdm compressor that comes on the d series. also, the compressor u speak of that is coming with your motor is made for an entirely different engine bay.

if u try to use the compressor as is on the tranny, it will prevent the motor from going in . it will hit the front cross member. hth

If you want AC, you'll need to use the original compressor from your HF with the Hasport bracket.

As for the cable tranny, yes, you'll need to get a rear bracket.
