hey guys, helping my friend swap in a 1st gen B16A swap from a 93 jdm integra xsi into his 91 crx si. we have the whole front clip.

what parts are needed to make this swap work?

we already have the hasport b16/crx mounts.
what shift linkage is needed? will the 90-93 integra one work?
which rear mount is needed?
will the 90-93 integra axles work in the 91 crx hubs? will the be the correct length?

any help is much appreciated. thanks

Well as far as the shift linkage goes, i had problems with almost everyone i tried to make or take off another car. Your best bet is to buy your linkage for hasport. They have a great custom made shift linkage (p/n EFBLIN). If you have the intermediate shaft from the 90-93 integra, the 90-93 integra axles will work with some modification. Considering you already have an SI, a little bit of wirning will be involved such as adding vtec pressure/solenoid, plus 2nd O2 sensor and knock sensor. You will need the radiator hoses from the integra (trim to fit). This is just a BASIC run-down of objectives need to get the engine in there. I believe hasport now makes a rear mount (p/n EFRB). Much easier to buy this than searching junk yards like i did. Good luck with your swap, Its worth it

 

thanks for your help! much appreciated.

so the rear mount from a 90-93 jdm integra will NOT work? does it need to be modified, notched or is it totaly off?

 

Yes, i forgot you had the WHOLE front CLIP. Just take it right off the integra and it will bolt up to your b16 in the CRX perfectly, you wont need to modify it at all
