Nice comeback. I guess it makes you feel better then something civil like "Oops, I'm sorry" or "Yeah, I am just a stupid noob who has never touced anything bigger then my stock D16Z6"

If you don't beleive me, fine. Walk around a junkyard or a used car lot and just try to find a '92 or '93 Integra with a factory installed B18B1. Maybe when you discover that that is impossible, you can feel a little more apologetic.

Hell, I'll make it easier for you. Go to www.g2ic.com, the second generation Integra message board, and ask over there.

I guess i just dont have as much free time to waste on the net as some people. I do know that alot of engine swap guides have them listed wrong then. Like this one http://tech.hybridgarage.com/tech/specs.htm

You were right, this time.

I'm sure your 87' is pretty fast

Yes, hybridgarage is wrong on this one.

I guess it's a good thing my Si was a temporary beater that hasn't left the driveway in over a year. In fact, it's for sale.

I had an FC, I sold it to buy a VW :doh: I'm back to the Honda's now.

Anyway, back on topic, put that in your car. You can make that work for cheaper than you can get a B18B swap for around here.

Thread jacking is common these days, but I tolerate it. I'll have the car towed to the shop some time next week, and I'll check it for sure. For the record, it's a '93 GS. 1.8L, DOHC. The owner told me it was a B18B1, and he's a friend of mine, but that doesn't necessarily mean he knew what he was talking about. There seems to be a huge grey area and a lot of conflicting info about this car everywhere. That's why I asked about it, I was sure it would start a debate.

I just hope I can put it in my hatch without having to spend $500 on mounts. My civic has solid shift linkage. Couldn't I just mount the cable shifter in place of my civic shifter? That shouldn't be that hard to do should it? I don't see why that wouldn't work if I have a donor car. I have a TIG welder at the shop.

Yup. You DO. (for now :snicker: ) That's damn impressive, really. Your car is fast as hell.

That's going to look incredible in your engine bay if you can squeeze it in somewhere. It isn't small. Have you pulled your evaporative emissions crap yet? There's room there for it if you haven't Right around where the charcoal canister "used to be".

Which cars? The DSMs? or the Civic? or the Integra?

I don't have pics of the Integra yet. I have pictures of the Honda, but they're nothing to brag about. I posted one in someone's thread once, and it killed the thread. That's okay, that thread needed to die. When the Integra gets to the shop next week, I'll get pics of it.

I have tons of pics of my DSMs. The GS was murdered in '01, but the GSX lives on... well... sort of. It's in a thousand pieces right now, but for its own good. Here's a pic of them side-by-side. If you want to see more of them, say so. I don't know how well received DSMs are in a Honda-Acura forum. Before the GS died, I swapped a bunch of parts off of it to make the GSX look sleepy. I hated the 95-96 OEM 16" wheels on the turbo models. I like the GS wheels a lot better.
