hi there. i am a new to the site and swapping Honda motors. not to Honda's tho. I have taken the time to read some threads. and let me tell you there is a lot of info. goods and bad, what to and what not, and so on. i do have to say it seams like every thing has been done before.
OK now on to my DA/ integra. i have a 93 integra. it had a b18a1 till i threw a rod at 8400 rpm with stock rods and arp rod bolts. Now i found and bought a b18c from japan^_^ The b18c it obd 1 as is my integra.
hear is what i have read and learned
it will be a bolt up and drop in with no problems except the motor mount, the three trans mounts should be good. maybe??
use my stock harness, with a obd 1 vtec subharness
have it run off a p73 or p72 obd 1 computer
use a GSR throttle cable and bracket. it has two cables now?! why??
if i am wrong or left something out tell me please.
I also have a question or two.
*if i want to get parts where and what ones do i get. i think i want to put a new oil pump, water pump, seals/gaskets, belt, and maybe spark pulge wires???
*why dose my b18c use two throttle cables??? and how do i fix that??
*The b18c is a automatic motor and a 5 speed is going on it. is that a problem??
*what USDM motor is it mostly like??? b18c5 i think???
*what cold air intake will i need??? the intake i odd.
*what oil filter??
and i will tell you now i am going to race this car ever weekend at a dirt track here in new york. the quad four cavilers are fast! my best finish was a third.
thanks
