SWAP Complete
Target car: 1990 Honda Civic LX 4 door
Goal: b16a SiR Gen1 Motor PW0 5spd ecu Y1 LSD transmission Parts(besides engine, tranny,etc.) 1.Mounts- I bought AZ race and Machine ones. $200 bucks of ebay, they are like the billet AL. copies of HAsport. 2.Shiftlinkage. Im using modifies 90-93 Integra. Cost: 10bucks vs.110bucks. All i did was cut of about 3in of each rod and bingo!! 3.Drivers side mount bracket and rear mount bracket off a 90-93 teg. 4.Exhaust bolted up fine. 5.New Honda p30 timing belt for a 99si 6. New clutch for a 90 integra 7. 2 gallons of oil (8 quarts, yeah extra) 8. Oil filter 9.Radiator fluid 50/50 mix, 2 gallons 10. 5th gen Slim radiator, Full Alluminum core and tanks Well i was cheap, didnt want to make or buy an a/c bracket, so i scrapped the air, wasnt cold anyway. Then i looked at the p/s, All i had was a gen 2 p/s pump and crank pulley, and a gen1 alternator and crank pulley. I didnt want to have to get anothe alternator or p/s pump. So... i made a sacrifice and got rid of that also! Started at about 10am....Yeah i know i skipped school to finish it! The old engine took a while to get out. I spent like 1hr breaking the fricking ball joints to get the axles out. Had the old motor out by 1pm. Had fun beating the crap out of the rear X-member. These mounts need more clearance than hasports. Put the new one in. I have never put an engine in from the top. Im always a bottom person. It wasnt that bad either. After i got it in i hooked it all up getting ready to test it out. I was just in a hurry to hear it. Plugged in the ECU, and it started right up! Well sorta, It threw like 5 CEL's but it started. I still have to get a new speed sensor, FI o-rings, etc. Ok are the pictures below..... These pictures are also kinda old... I took them last night and i did some cleanup on vac lines and wiring this morning. p/s is pictured but it is gone!  Look short radiator, hmm wonder why, whats going in the other place?  Front view w/o radiator  Yep i got VTECH PHONE inside!  Tools required: Or mess made!  and  Currently running a modded 90-91 Teg dizzy, works fine...  Okay i give up, Here is all the room i have when i attempt to turbo another one of my cars again....  And to finish it up. Here is a pic of the 500K vaccum lines that i had to get capped or moved around! oh well you get the idea. BTW they are all cleaned up much nicely now!  Thanks for looking. Andrew

Re: SWAP Complete
LOL i wanted to see how many people noticed that. I put it in there while i was spraying some cleaner to get all of the crap on the TB so it would open easier.

Re: SWAP Complete
Looks good i thought about taking off my bumper and everything but i didn't. Looks like it makes things easier to get to so i may have to go ahead and take mine off too. I need to do some brace work to it anyways cause the bumpers a little loose.

Re: SWAP Complete
Thanks for the comments.
I had to take the bumper off because my hood latch snapped. Thats why the cable is cut off. The short radiator. Well the one i got is an aftermarket one. All i have it is placed in there. Im setting it up by cutting a little of the radiator support so i can have it sit up straight, otherwise it would have to set on an angle. Ill post pics when im done modding the radiator. No havent drove it yet. I want to get all of the wiring done, cleanup finished, bumper and radiator, and a fan in also. Need to get the drivers axle on. As well as finish exhaust and get a speed sensor. I was going to get it today but i ficking overslept! So i will have to wait until tuesday to go to the junkyard. Oh well! The swap was the easiest i have ever done. Mainly because of that air compressor! Ahh where would i be without it!
