B16A1 swap

Okay I just bought a CRX and I heard a B16A1 dropped right in. Well I was told wrong. I was wondering if I could get a list of everything i need to do this swap.

This questions been asked quite a few times....do a search on it.

Here's the short answer, but do a search for more complete details:
Engine
Tranny
Mounts
Shift linkage
Intermediate shaft
Axles
ECU


There are other things, too, and they are out there in the old threads, also, if you visit some websites like www.hybrid.honda-perf.org you can get some good answers.

Let me solve your problem by buying my WHOLE COMPLETE swap for 1700 with axles, hcp 4 mount kit and hasport shift linkage. :)

okay sounds good to me.

Reason im asking this is because im confused ove been getting a grip of advice but alot of it is diff. Thanks for your advice people.

just get a b18b, then when you get enough money build an ls-vtec setup. or save for the gsr. ls-vtec is pretty expensive but an ls by itself does have a lot of potential. something to think about.

I think you can use the one from the 2nd gen tegs, 90-93. Not totally sure, though. However, 1700 for everything is killer!

uh b16a1 and b16a2 are the same internally.


Yea I know they are the same...just the a1 is a lil more work and the a2 is a lil more expensive BUT its woth it cause it already comes with the hydraulic conversion kit and motor mount kit..

NO its not both generations are the same thing. there should be no extra work for the A1. trust me I know.

everything comes with the swap besides the engine and tranny right?

It comes with motor/trans/ecu/hcp 4mount kit/hasport shift linkage/ axles and intermediate shaft. All u need is just the wiring and your set:) Aim me at hot2defsubonic . Let me know if you're interested. Thanks

well then you should forget what you think you know, the first gen b16a (which is what he is talking about, i know of NO ONE who sells an EDM B16a1 stateside) would require EXTENSIVE work to make it work in his EK, first part is the wiring, next part is the tranny, catch my drift? and internally the first gen and second gen are DIFFERENT there is a .2 compression point difference as well as a different intake manifold and cams on the second gen, he should get the second gen b16a because he can get it OBD-2, Hydraulic transmission, etc......


edit: please dont go around telling people you know when you make a post about a b16a not dropping right into a CRX, because obviously you need to do more reading (not a bad thing)

Are u sayin that he should go with a2 instead of first gen?? Either eay i would just get teh first gen NON OBD . ITs less work and first gen is better than second gen anyways. .2 compression doesn't make a world of difference.

i am saying that if you have an OBD-0 vehicle, get an OBD-0 motor, if you have an OBD-1 vehicle get an OBD-1 motor, etc.....unless you want to be california smog legal, then for a b16a you will need to do an OBD-1 conversion.....

Yeh i get you now.
