please give me tips on wat to rewire or a brief diagram will help very much, i didnt know wat kind of keywords to search for, and i also used the Faq but i didnt find and thread on rewiring, thanks






ill keep posted

 

finally got started on the car!!! and finished too! only two days! wed/thurs

we (me and bro) got the wires/hose unplugged dropped the motor out from beneath because we dont have a cherry picker at the time, got the motor sitting aside. prepped the B20b motor, got the mounts on there, tranny on there..we got the L bracket on along with the rear mount. we pounded the side of the frame for clearance for the alternator. we dragged the b20b under the car to swap it cause again no cherry picker.. had the car on a jack very high, dropped the car and tamper with motor to get it in place, and so we did. got everything put back together like radiator all hoses etc.. then came the rewire the Dx to a Si wire harness.. got it done started that mother up and **** its loud like a bitch, open headers cause the type r header doesnt line up with the stock exhaust, heres some pix

Your off to a good start! You'll love the torque of that engine. What tranny are you using?

 

my car is in my sig, that wago is my brothers car ( the guy in the engine bay) we are both using a b16 tranny, we are putting in a b16 head on tomorrow (Fri).. that **** is hella gonna pull, cause we had a stock b20bvtec in our crx (selling to a friend tomorrow as well) and it ran a 12.7 all day with bolt ons/full interior/slicks 191hp/151trq so yea i bet it will pull hard with the b20 alone!

 

engine swap with no cherry picker.. that is going to be in my future.. nice job.. you might need a shocker sticker to go on the back window.. lol

 

k the muffler we solved the problem. we cut the stock piping about 3 inches off were its near the shifter..we used a rubber piece along with like 8 clamps..slapped it on the car tonight and ran it on the highway...man that shitty 2 inche pipe is cloggin the power..as we came back for another round the fucken second pipe (towards the rear muffler) came off and we was running like open headers. its was so damn loud, but ****... the power kicked in so hard.!!!!! bro is waiting on his tax to come in and hes going to put on a 2 1/2 pipe all the way back like my sedan.. stay tune for b16 head going on sunday with new rims as well!

enjoy the pix!

his car (LT) and my sedan (RT)


the pipe that we cut off





the rubber piece and clamps



thats how it sits



oh and this is my brother (his wago-van)

 

got new shoes to roll on. some Drag rims like gt3s in bronze. b16 head is coming on tues and is going into the car as well. heres some pix, we traded my bros crx shell (complete w/ everything) for the new rims and new tires and b16 head complete. we'll miss that crx (spent 7 years on it) enjoy






here is some fog lights off my dads subarban (truck) who need read jdm fogs wen a look a like works the same? in the process of installing these

 

Did you sell this car, I was talking to a guy at a shell station in Murrieta last night who was driving it, or at least i believe it was the same car (with carseat in back and all)?

YEA, ftw..it even matches the cars color!

 

the crx is gone after 7 years me and my bro worked on it. complete shell with no motor. wat my bro got out of it is a clean set of rims (pix above) and a complete b16 head. yesterday (tues) his friend finally delievered the had to my brother.

a complete 00 b16a2 head with itr manifold vtec kit etc.

motor is probably going on sunday because we still need to clean a little more and need to get a head gasket.







STR cams



cleaned, still needa clean more.



this moster sleeper is coming together really nice. 2 days swap and running. and waited 3-4 days for head to come in. and it will be only 1 day for us to switch heads. we still need arp or gsr head bolts and gasket then the work is on, enjoy!

 

i would rather get arp head studs

 

good luck with the b20/vtec hers a site might help you out on parts!

Looking good gee, tell you bro I say wzup. Going to be ready for CMI in April? If you need wire diagram PM your email address and I hook you up.

 

most likely we are gonna be ready for track

 

NO affense. but dont you think you should have cleaned the bay when you removed the d15? and possibly just waited too put the vtec head on?

Nonetheless, cool project.

 

no why clean it when its gonna get dirty again anyways you know..

everything we do is legitly done btw. may take us 2 hours or 2 days, but everything will be perfect, can you believe we've had this b20 (in the wago) for 2 years now? it was a 12 second engine before we sold the last b16 head on it. now its back and running in a new shell..the Wago-Van...

 

I like the honda civic wagon engine swap nice. I wish others with honda civic wagons would sport the wagon too. Nice job on the wagon!!!

 

luv wagonvans and this project! keep up the good work.
Gotta luv your Sedan to
