Default For B18C1 & 92-95 Civic owners

Alright. I'm planning on swapping this Saturday (Can't Wait). My brothers friend can supposely get me all the stuff I need for a real great deal. However, he was telling me some stuff I wasn't expecting. He was telling me about having to change the lower controling arms because of the axles:eekno: . I wasn't expecting that. I was thinking something like this


B18C 94-95 (GSR) Motor, Tranny, ECU
- Motor
- Hydraulic Tranny (S80, Y80)
- ECU (P72)
- Axles with Half Shaft
- Shift Linkage
- Hasport High Horsepower upgraded motor mount kit
- Alternator
- Starter
- Clutch
- Flywheel
- Intake Manifold
- Exhaust Manifold
- Fuel Rail
- Injectors
- Distributor
- Engine Harness
- Comes With All Sensors Needed
- LSD Tranny (Optional +$300)

This is suppose to be the complete swap. For those who have done the swap before. Have you guys ever encounter any things that might of been left out of this list. Please let me know. BTW, I will keep you guys posted because he is going to be updating me. I would appreciate your guys help. I just don't want this guy to get me stuff I don't really need.

your brothers friend is an idiot. everything you need is on the list except for fluids, 94+ integra throttle cable, 94+ integra fuel line from the fuel filter to the fuel rail, new 8mm dowl pin for the shift linkage, few other random extras........but as far as swapping out LCAs or any garbage like that, kick your bros friend in the sac.

agreed^

theres no need to be chaning the lower control arms & what not & the axle splines will match right up without fail.

Tear it up man, we'll be here for questeions if needed.. only suggestion is search around here & read everything u can on the swap. It will help u out a lot.

Alright, I am going to purchase my JDM B18C1 (higher compression) tomorrow and picking it up around noon from homotorsonline. I wasn't able to get it with an LSD since I was getting a 94-95, Steve said that I can get the 96 and he will give me the OBDI harness but I will just have to change something about the distributor and the fuel connection to the fuel rail. Since this is my first swap and I really just want to keep things simple, I went without the LSD. I figured I will swap the transmission from another B-series engine later. I can do that right? (I think I read that as long as it's B-series tranny, you're fine). Well I will update you guys tomorrow.

He should put the motor in first to see if the belt and pump even need replacing.

its a good idea just to do so anyways, u should be able to tell if its bad by a quick glance... not 100 percent of course lol but why make it harder for urself?

i replace the clutch, pump, etc... when i did a swap just so its done
