motor swap pics (ZC)
well my DOHC ZC swap into my hatch is finally DONE i'm sooo happy with it... parts are as folows... stock DOHC ZC, 90 Si tranny stock header with aftermarket muffler, stock air box, DX harness modified to a MPFI harness (used Si plugs and ecu pins) wireing looks stock like, Si throtle cable, new si axles, 93 teg knuckles painted blue, 90 teg steel wheels!!
here is the storry... my 89 4d LX got totalled  after i put a ZC in it i even had a Zc PS pump installed i did the swap myself along with the teg disk setup the car moved fast BUT i had the stock tranny (just a side note when u do a ZC swap DO NOT use the dx std or HF tranny the FD and input shaft bearing are MUCH smaller and will wear out VERY quick also use ONLY honda MT fluid) so i stripped the 4d and went out looking for a hatch i found one MY white one (91 std) it was very poorly taken care of .. no carpet seats all tore up springs cut 1 windshield wiper no atena....ect i only paid $1000 but the guy said it wont pass smog i said NO problem i got a almost new motor sitting in a 4d that only had 129miles after the swap so i drove it around ti'll this week when i started the swap on monday so TUE rolls around and i goto the shop and the car threw a rod and imbedd'd the rod in the block so i HAD to put in the motor then... so my ZC was cleaned up mated to a Si tranny that i pulled out of a junk yard Si ($175) and i started well everything went pretty smooth the engine pop'd right in and its done the hardest part was the wiring since i TOOK apart the stock DX harness to install all the MPFI plugs and what not cuz i wanted a factory looking harness! non of this hooky shade tree honda ricer crap install's here i did it right the first time all my wires were solder'd and wrap'd and wireloomed so it looks BONE stock like the ZC came in my car and DAM what a freeking differece the Si tranny made i should of bought one the FIRST time that stupid DX tranny was lame well here are the pics i promised
