Seriously man stop talkin' out of your ass.

i'm not sure on the b16's, but the b18c1 driver side mount (by the cam gears) is different from the D series motors. The tranny side mount may also be different not positive.

The stabilizer mounts on the D series are also different I believe.

If I remember correctly. The stabilizer mount for the d series uses 2 bolts to connect to the tranny, and 2 bolts to connect to the frame.

For the B series, it uses 3 bolts to bolt to the tranny, and 2 bolts to the frame.

If you wanna keep air conditioning you'll need a b16 ac mount, and for power steering you'll need an integra power steering pump... I believe....

The t bracket on the rear mount may also vary.

Point in short, yeah you need the motor mounts from the b series.
I'm not steppin' on toes here, but I just did this so it's pretty fresh in my mind:

Driver/upper: must be changed to the GSR mount (not what attaches to the block, but what attaches to the mount off the block)

Driver/lower (aka AC): GSR will work, but your AC won't bolt up. Also, in the '92-'95s there's a little plate that's spot welded to the frame that must be removed so that the mount will bolt flush to the subframe (both driver and pass sides) For this mount to work with your AC, you will need the mount from a '97 VTEC Del Sol (stamped P54 I believe)

Middle/Rear (aka Torque Mount): MUCH DIFFERENT! This mount bolts into the block in 2 spots and through the block into the tranny in another.

Passenger/Upper: The Civic one will work

Passenger/Lower: you will need the GSR one for this too because the triangle pattern on the trannies where the mount bolts up are very different.

Hope it helps.

I don't know who's toes you'd be stepping on. I think you and I said the same thing, you just wnet into more detail than I did.

whats funny is a stock s2000 ($32k running the 1/4 in 13.8/100.5) comes rather close to a stock viper ACR ($82k running the 1/4 in 12.2/119.2) for over half the price and over twice the cylinders (think: fuel efficiency)

all that, and the s2000 still goes 60-0 eight feet shorter than viper (113ft vs. 121 ft)

every time I see a viper on the road, I want to smack the driver on the back of the head. Sure, vipers are fast, and I'd love to drive one. But who would waste $82,000 on a dodge?
