I will be dropping a B18 into a 90 dx hatch, and I will need some help with it. I am going to be renting a garage to get it done, so anyone that would like to help out, I will supply the booze and food. It will be at Clayton's house (Airjockey). This is my first swap, but hopefully not my last.
To make a long story short, I bought an integra from a buddy I work with. It had a few bugs with the motor, but I wanted to put it into my civic...I got ripped off by some kid that was originally going to do it. He took $500, half the money he wanted to do the swap, and only yanked the motor...the he blew me off. And it brings me to where I am now.
As far as the motor goes, it has a surging idle...between 1000 and 2500 rpm. Once in a while, it gave me a hard time when I tried to start it...but that was few and far between. Everything that was under the hood came out when the kid yanked it; axels, ECU, the whole nine. I have motor mounts to do the swap, and I bought a new clutch for it...
Where I go from here is a good question...I have the place and the tools to get it done, I just need some help executing it...So if anyone is up for some free food and booze, let me know and I will tell you when the swap will get done...
A few other things I should mention in case someone might sense a problem or whatever...
We yanked the power steering and A/C out...
As far as aftermarket parts, I don't know what was done to the internals of the motor, but it's got a CAI, 4-2-1 headers, Hi-flow cat, and 2.25 cat back exhaust...I know the exhaust will have to be fitted to the hatch, but I just want to get it running...I can worry about that later.
Anyone that knows anything about re-wiring harnesses, feel free to speak out...I don't know anything about it. I know I will have to change some stuff, but what exactly it entales is beyond me.
Other than that, I am not sure I could tell you much more...any questions, just ask...
Thanks in advance...
