Hey guys, i have been searching the internet for ever now. I need to know how to wire up the b18 in to my 89 civic DX hatch. I have a 90 integra parts car with 5 speed. But i just bought a new engine out of a 94 integra. What kind of wiring am i going to have to do to make this all work??

Any help will be usefull. I already have mounts, shift linkage, ect.

you're gonna have to wire over to MPFI and get a resistor box from a mpfi car. Ami's website has a write up on it www.4thgenerationcivic.com (http://www.4thgenerationcivic.com), and www.fourthgenhatch.com (http://www.fourthgenhatch.com) has I write up to, but im not sure if his page is up anymore.

I would just use the 90 integra engine but it is blown. So i have a 94 engine.

yeah do the mpfi swap, swap the dist and intake mani over to the 94 motor and plug in the pr4 ecu and your all set as far as wiring. you might have some trouble with the dist

yeah and you will need the 90 teg ecu and i think that everything will be plug and play once you convert it to MPFI....

since its a obd1 motor, you might have trouble with the dist. try and swap the dist first and see how it works out before you do anything else.
