What up people!! i'm new to this side of HAN.
I'm in the process of buying a beat up 92 Civic dx bubble, as my project car.
First thing on my list before I do anything at all, is to swap that beat up engine which has 182k on it.
Heres my question...
What can i fit into that little itty bitty engine bay without giving me a headache.
I'm ganna be doing this myself so if you guys have any sites or great instructions with PICTURES...lolz
Hook me up!!

 

Put a Gsr swap in it. It will be really easy to do if you are buying a 92 hatch because it is already wired for Vtec.

 

Are you going to go N/A or FI?

 

cool welcome to the game, and you've come ot one of hte better sites out there

 

The most popular swaps are the Si motor (B16a), the Teg GSR motor (B18c1), the Teg LS motor (B18b) as well as the b20, H22, along with many others...

B-series bolt right in, while the H-series requires some fabrication...

hih

- Dubs


*EDIT* o yea, almost forgot...goto www.hmotorsonline.com they have a great selection and lots of info on Honda Motors...

 

If you feel sentimental toward your Accord's engine, you can fit an F22A into the Civic. :chuckles:

BTW, I prefer to call the 5G hatchback the "Jellybean"

 

welcome to the jellybean squad

 

Good lookin fellas..
you guys are on point.
What abot the wiring harness, do i have to get any additional wiring or does the b18 series plug right in?
For those of you with hybrids did you run into any problems with the swap?

 

Congratulations on the HATCHBACK.

 

something remindes me of that one funny guy with the red civic coupe who posted a few times and was run off.....

maybe its the rican flag....

oh yeah, don't paint your interior.
