I have a 94' Civic EX 5-speed that is black in color. The chassis has 170K on it but the engine is a JDM D16 that only has 50K on it. Engine has 5 months left on warranty. The cars interior is perfect. Exterior has a few marks (it is 11 years old). Car doesnt smoke at all! Engine compartment is...
Well thats good about the b16. I am not wanting an all out drag car. Something that can get me in the 14s and piss off these mustangs around my town :D
Wonder if it would be worth opting for the LSD on the b16?? What would have to be put on the b16 to get the tourqe up to the GSRs? If you...
well, i dont know any "cool" kids so thats not why im not considering it. I read everywhere that it is not a good swap and its too much work.. and its front heavy. Why would it be cheaper?
thanks for the reply. Only thing is... now the ive been thinking.. if i get complete swap $3500 + clutch+water pump+timing belt+header+custom exhaust man Im up over 4500 bucks.....that B16a SiRII or the B16a3 (del sol) is sounding better and better :( ..... for me, that much money isnt easy to...
so if i get the JDM GSR ,, i will have to buy a USDM GSR wiring harness? Where would I get that? sorry for all the n00b questions but I really appreciate your help.
also, i had considered the B16 SiR-II but everyone says i'll regret not going with the extra torque from the B18C1. All I know is...
So the only difference is power? I thought I had read that you have to do something with the wiring harness since the JDM is on the left instead of right or something along those lines.
thanks for the info. The reason I ask is, I am in contact with a local company that can do the swap and get the motor. They are local so I can avoid the big shipping fee associated with hmotorsonline.

I am calling around to different places for prices on B18C1s. They are asking me USDM or JDM. If I am correct , there are a few differences in the two such as wiring harness etc? any others?
also, if I go USDM, where do they get the engines from? Do the engines come out of crashed cars? Is it...
you guys are helping me out big time. :thankyousigna2:
Is there a good step by step book, or pictures on a swap somewhere? maybe an issue of some mag from the past?
Anyone recommend a place on the East Coast or Mid to get my B18C from?
92b16vx You rock!! :worthy:
Thanks for the info. As of right now, I have overwhelming response to go GSR route. Im making a list of things to get with it to replace (clutch, thermostat, etc). Think pulleys are worthy for a B18C?
wow... thanks for the quick responses!!!
1. As for the car, I dont think I want to run a turbo. My goal is to build a strong running car as a daily driver. I would like to be able to at least get the car to run in the 14.0 14.5 range.
2. I read on here about people getting GSRs and then...
Hello, Im new to the board and have a few questions.
Hope this is the right place to post this...
My friend and I are going to be doing a swap in my 94' civic EX soon. I honestly dont really want to do it myself since i've never done one, and he claims he knows how but i'm worried. Does...
