I have a 93 si hatch. I am thinking of getting a ls swap but i dont know what else to get for my motor. I am getting the motor and thats about it. What kinds of drive axles would i need, ecu, tranny? Motor mounts, wire harnesses??? Also i have a hydraulic clutch so what tranny would i have to get? Anyone out there wanna give me some info? Thanks guys
 
dont get a b18a1 if u can, ull have to change it to obd1, its also cable clutch and ull have to change that. get a 94+++ b18b, u will just need to get axels engine tranny and ecu, and ur good to go. maybe shift linkage if u dont wanna modify ur stock 1.

Let's just say goto a track and do a few runs.I've heard people running 17 in Colorado and with the same set up 14 or 15 in Cali. Sorry there are too many variables but if you want a guess 15.??-16.??
 
Dude my old B18a and I ran 14.56 with I/H/E clutch and lightened flywheel. i am no means the best driver, but as long as u get a good start without to much tire spin and a good light ull do fine. i believe i got a .658 or something close to that, i have the slip somewhere. I live in Vanouver BC Canada, so its a lot colder and closer to sea level than other areas.
 
ive seen a 93 hatch at the track run lik a 15.1 at best with a b18a or b im not sure which one, and i think he had sum mods, but he also had rims and that shit to weigh him down...
