Thanks alot. Ill keep my eye open for a D16 civic harness. I talked to a guy that said you can get the plugs from the acura dealership... but I havent checked yet.

Gotcha. Since vtec motors aren't very easy to find in a junkyard here in Idaho, could I even get a civic vtec harness (I think those are cheapest) for the vtec, pressure switch and knock sensor? ...basically are all vtec, pressure switch and knock sensor plugs the same on all vtec motors?

Good to know. So can you just get those plugs seperate? ...or I guess then I could get a cheap b18 nonvtec harness and cut the iacv, temp sensor, and purge valve? That would be sweet...

Im embarking on a gsr swap soon and im starting to gather my parts now. Im just buying the gsr long block for now (which doesnt include the ecu or the gsr harness). Anyway, im getting the obd1 jumper harness and vtec subharness. But id hate to buy an entire gsr harness just to chop it up for the...

Very good input. As far as the gsr swap goes, my parts list is as follows: gsr long block, p72 ecu, obd1 jumper w/vtec subharness and o2 sensor, gsr wiring harness, 92-up clutch kit since im using my ls trans still. That sound about right? Im might bet a new IM in order to use the ls throttle...

Im also curious what the 2 throttle cables are he is talking about? ... i thought one was for the cruise control?

So im bringing up the big heated discussion - B18C vs B16A in the DA. B18C with 180 hp and 128ft pounds vs the B16A 2nd Gen with 170 hp and 116 ft pounds. (10hp and 12ft pounds difference) drrrr Jdmtigerjapanese.com has the B16A 2nd Gen w/cable trans for $1751 which comes with the engine...

Hows this for a new epic DA integra problem?? On my way home from work I tried turning the heat on because its 23 degrees out and the fan switch will not spin, its stuck in the off position!! Has this happened to anyone? Any advice? I don't want to be cold!!

Also, I was doing some work on my car earlier, and was planning the swap. Basically with the information provided above, everything seems to be figured out. However, while looking at my motor and how the gsr will fit, I noticed all the friggin vacuum lines EVERYWHERE! Would I just be able to...

Wow, thanks for that info, that's good stuff. Im sure I could figure it out once I have everything but I like when things are elementary. Haha I was thinking the the alernators were fine as far as wiring? And you might as well post the remedy for the cel too Salvador. Haha

That's all goood stuff. So to make it sound even easier - 1.I get the obd1 conversion with vtec conversion, cut the vtec plugs off the gsr harness and solder them onto the vtec conversion wires? 2. I have to request the knock sensor, and iab sensor be added to the obd conversion from rywire...

There's another guy telling me to stay obd0 and just get a vtec conversion harness, and a pr3 ecu, he said likes the vtec crossover and the base maps better than the p72. Would this be a good idea? I just don't see how it would work with an obd1 engine... I would think it would have to be...

Im sure he meant the 1st gen of the DA generation. Haha I considered ls/v however I wanted missed my rpm range of my old gsr. Sure I could build the bottom to handle 8500+ rpm however by the time I get a good head, the the lsvtec conversion, pistons, ecu crap, etc. to make the ls bottom capable...

Hellooooo honda swap, im new to the site and thought id start with a new thread. I just recently sold my DC w/itr front end and itr motor (still regret it) haha Now im on to a new project. I picked up a mint 1990 integra awhile ago and miss my old itr's rpm range. Im looking into swapping a obd1...
