I have two civics at the house. One 2002 with the D17A2 that has been wrecked (major unibody/frame damage.) The other is a 1996 coupe with engine damage. The family is in need of another daily driver and I'm wondering about the feasibility of swapping in the newer engine.
Conditions that make this more interesting.
The D17A2 is coming off of an automatic transmission.
The 96 coupe has a 5speed manual transmission in it.
The cars are sitting 20 feet from each other, so I can safely assume that any other parts that need to come from the donor should be readily available.
So, bottom line, is this doable? Like I mentioned, we just need a DD, so things like AC would be nice but not necessary. Getting to work is infinitely more important.
Thanks,
Kick
