B18a
 

I have an oppertunity to buy a b18a out of a G2 integra for $150 bucks CAD

it runs liek crap but it runs, i wanna put it into my 95 civic 4 door, i know i have sawp to a cable clutch pedel and stuff, but is this motor OBD1? can i use the stock ECU and chip it?

i know this is a dumb question but i really dont understand too well, i know i can use all my same mounts except the rear mount? and i can use stock axles?

Re: B18a
 

What year?
90-91 = OBD-0/pre OBD
92-93 = OBD-1

Re: B18a
 

Yea those tegs are the odd ones when it comes to models and OBD types.

G2 tegs can have Obd0 or OBD1;
G3 tegs can have OBD1 or OBD2

Find out which year it's from. sumpin-91=OBD0 or pre-OBD, 92-95=OBD1, 96+=something you'll want to convert back to OBD1.

Re: B18a
 

yeah teh cars a 92 so it will be OBD1, thats the same as my civic so it should be a pretty easy swap other than the clutch problem, it doent coem with teh tranny so i might just try and find a b16 tranny for it


can i use the stock ECU with teh b18a? i know it would probably run the motor but will it give me enough fuel?

Re: B18a
 

if u have a p06 or p28 just chip it and run the appropriate map
contact minor threat for the ecu service since your in canada

Re: B18a
 

Yes you are set, everything should drop in, it will be better to get a hydro tranny, sell the cable to someone with an older civic.
The ECU will run the car, but not to it's best potential, but like was said before, you can just have it chipped and go, or if you are getting the ECU from the Integra it will plug right in.


By the way, wrong forum :-*

yeah i realized it was wrong forum after i posted it :l

thanks for all the help guys, but i decided to not go with the motor, it needs all new bearings, rings and a tranny

im gonna hold out untill a good working one comes along they go for like 400 complete here everyday so i will hold out for that, but thanks to you guys i now know what to look for and i understand what i gotta do to put the engine in the car

im gonna go b18b tranny when i do swap anyways to have hydro and still have higher gears
