You have 92 and up throttle body. Yours has the map sensor on it. The throttle body you received is an older one and is used on cars with map sensors on the firewall. You CAN use it but you'll need an external map sensor from an 88-91 Civic or something.

Any point in scrwing around to use it? I have an ITR motor so will this 65mm make any difference?

Actually that TB in the pic cam from a 92-95 EG B16A2.

you can you your original map sensor if you still have just get a piece of vacume hose and put it on your map sensor and then plug it into the one on the throttle body,
have you mic the throttle body yet, because of the pic you have it doesn't really look that big, and if i am wrong the older throttle bodys can only get bore to maybe 62mm because they are not that thick but i could be wrong

Thanks, so what your saying is the map sensor from mine - take it off, plug a hose into it and plug the other end of the hose onto that pipe where the red circle is, on my piture?

How big are ITR throttle bodies anyway?

And how d'you get your TB so shiny?!?
