if you are building an engine like that, and have no idea about a simple swap, you dont deserve what you have or are getting.


the engine and trans will bolt in using 94 and up integra mounts along with the axles, shiflinkage, you should get a custom ecu and a gsr wiring harness or modify your existing wiring harness.

Is your engine harness the JDM or USDM one? If it is the one that came on the car, it is 'backwards' -- connectors on the opposite side. Since you have a JDM ecu, the sensor differences shouldn't be a problem, but adapting a USDM harness will take a little studying (or experience). Nothing you can't handle.

Ask me in another month or so... The experience should be fresh by then.

Does the 14000 include the cost of the engine? Even if it does, what in the hell are you spending 14000 on?

hahahaha, that's got to be the funniest thing i read all day....thanks for the laugh..cause your a joke....14,000 on a b18c "r"......

i know its hard to find but there is a search button around here somewhere..... also, if you are trying to put that engine in your car its about the same as gsr minus the butterflies on the intake mani..use an obd1 computer and obd1 gsr distributer. modify your stock harness...its a piece of cake and shuld take no more than 2 hours to modify it and have it lookin all pretty

WOAH watch out..terror on the streets... HA HA HA

im shure you are the only one that has ever done a c5 in a del sol

you my friend (and your dad who prob bought it) are paveing the way to new heights of import proformance of which lesser foke such as me and other's on honda tech would never be able to understand. thank you for the humor of putting "14 grand" into a c5 and putting it in a uglyass 4000lb car such as the honda del sol im shure the red shien of the valve cover will clash nicely with the sparkeling altezzas

No, but the chassis is about as stiff as one of those big wheels cars (you know the ones with the red body and yellow top)

First, no one cares if you have the "almighty type r" motor in that del sol, there are shitloads of people on these boards that have em. Second, you must be another one of those trolls.
Post pics of reciepts and prove to us you really are spending 14k. Third, you do NOT deserve a motor like that if you are gonna do ricer flybys on the freeway.
