OK have a little question I have a b16a1 from my old crx swap, I just bought a 1996 HB civic and id like to do the swap in to my new car what all is needed.
So far I found ....Hydro to cable kit, and 99 civic Si mounts..any info or links will be greatly appreciated. I really do not want to buy a new engine.

 

This might be a dumb question but could I use the complete 99-00 si wiring harness to replace the interior and engine harness from my car, so there would be no wire cutting.

 

i dont know if you noticed but the first tread on this page is about swaps.

not sure if the answer is in there but look there first. if its not in there use the search function.

Hydro to cable kit
99 SI/96+ B20 driver side timing belt mount
99 si rear mount
front a/c mount(or aftermarket driverside mount)
for easy wiring use 96-98 ex harness(pretty much plug and play except converting the plug style of the SOHC vtec Knock sensor)
swap OBD0 injectors for OBD2 injectors
swap dizzy for OBD1/OBD2 DOHC VTEC dizzy
swap PR3/PW0 ecu for P72 OBD2a 96-99 GSR ecu/P30 obd2A/obd1 ecu with converterharness
Add CFK sensor to crank region(or run obd1 electrionics)

have fun

 

wow thats gonna be fun

id sell the a1 and buy a new motor

 

ditto

 

I would but iv already got so much money in the a1 like pistons, rods, cams, porting, ext, that it would be a throwing money out.

 

Yes screw trying to convert the pre-OBD engine to OBD2 or trying to convert the car and engine to OBD1 - sell the first-gen B16A and buy the correct B16A2 swap.

 

actually if you do the process in a decent manner you wont be out that much.

sell cable tranny 350-400, get gsr tranny for 450-500
sell obd0 dizzy 125-130, get obd1 dizzy or odb2 dizzy 150
buy obd1/obd2 injectors 50 a set
sell PR3/Pw0 125, get P06 ecu chipped for his spec of engine from Kenji 40 for ecu and 100 for chipping(140)
converter harness from jdmshit,boomslang,kenji,90blownhatch(78-150 shipped)
do your own custom wiring from your DX harness to DOHC VTEC(is easy), or i can do it for you for $60 shipped back to you.

not that bad to go OBD1, just watch out for obd2....BS CFK sensor

 

thanx

I'd never pair a B16A with a longer geared GS-R tranny.

 

gearing isn't that bad, if you have a Y1 cable tranny then your basically stuck with GS-r gears.
if you have an S1/J1 your going to lose some accelration.

WTF?

The JDM S1/J1 has THE shortest gears of all cable trannies except for the YS1 GS-R/JDM Xs-i tranny.

Where are you getting your specs from?
