I plan on doing a jdm integra type r swap into my 94 dx in the next few months. i was between a gsr and a type r but the more i think about it when im already spending that much i just need to suck it up and spend the little more and go with the C5. iv done a few swaps before but always but the same obd engine that the chasis is. i have 3 questions about this swap.
1. how complicated is it to put a obd2 type r motor into a obd1 chasis?
2. any real difference between the 96-97 and the 98+ type r motors? one is like 600 bucks more then the other but they are advitised as 210hp each with the same redline. is it really worth the extra 600?
3. can i use the jdm engine wire harness or do i need to get a usdm one. i have heard that you cant use the jdm one because the plugs that go up to the shock towers to plug into the chasis harness are on the opposite sides from what they need to be because the jdm version is set up opposite the usdm one. I cant find the true answer to this anywhere.
