Re:new project what do you think?
you have the 92 so your engine harness should be the same as the Si (unless you have none or someone swapped them), so it won't be too hard to swap in a vtec motor. That's a plud for you. Why don't you tell us exactly what you have to work with.

and you will still have to wire it for Vtec.
might this be of a help to you...

yeah I read it, to my knowledge all the 92's came with the same wiring harness as the Si. And if it needed to have a vtec wire I think it was one or two. I don't remember, I gave up on gathering information about the 92-95 when I found my 91 hatch at like a third of the price.

and yes, if you have a 91, this changes everything. i think you need to search www.honda-tech.com, and this site, and the other link i give you and then ask questions buddy.

off topic, but I am just reminded of a chance for me to buy a 93 si in nice shape for a grand. Reason why I couldn't I had to pay rent the week before. Fucken ----. I'm still mad about it. And before someone asks, yes it has been sold.

Re:new project what do you think?
ya, i think i am gonna stick with the d16z6 i am just not sure on what kind of motifications i will have to do to make it fit. Also unsure if the d16's tranny is cable or hydraulic, i don't feel like switching over to hydraulic.
Hopefully i will pick this engine up on sat for 150, and start building it.

I am looking to get some pretty high number. I goal is to have about 300 whp for daily driving and for the track run as much as possible.

I guess it all depends on where you live. Around here full LS swaps go for $500. I picked up a full D16z6 for $83.00 at the u-pull-it. ---- there was even an LS there, but it was automatic. The motor was good, I can get that for you for $80 also
