Hey guys and gals,

I thought i'd start a thread and see if there are any members out here that have sweapped a B16A into their 3G civics!

I am serious into doing this for next summer, and would like to know any members that have done it to help me out for reference, parts, idea's, etc.

I know you can always search on the internet, and figure out things as you go along, but it is all that much easier if you have someone you can talk to that knows how to do it right and can help save money as well...

so if there's any members out there, just give a shout out in this thread! If you want post some pictures, and mods done to your car.

I know the jist of what is needed, but since I'm also going from Carb to FI, the wiring will be my biggest task.

So again, all comments and suggestions welcome!

Do some searching on this site. This has been covered a half dozen times or so in the last few months. To get you started though, check out www.hasport.com
You will need their engine mount kit and they list all the parts you will need to get things done.

thanks man!

How's your CRX running? Your car is more or less my inspiration to do this, and a few other assholes in my city that need a good ass whipping

I know there's the usual torsion bar upgrade, integra braking system upgrade, hasport mounts and wiring harness kit (any other ways?), Zdyne ECU setup, etc.

Well, my engine is undergoing a rebuild and it's moving from the Si into my HF in a couple months.

You can use an Si harness and just add the wires you need. No need for the ZDyne.

There are a few of us on here with the B16 transplant. Check out the galleries to see some of them.

Hi.
I have also a B16A swap in my CRX. It woth the effort and $$$$. I did the swap by myself so I didnt have to spend $$ paying someone to make the install.

My CRX was Carb so I have to make it FI. Here the parts I used on my swap.

-91 JDM B16A and S1 Tranny
-ZDYne one wire ECU ( Used first a chipped PR3 ECU so I used a 91 CRX VSS)
-Hasport engine mount kit and Axles
-87 CRX Si complete wiring harness and resistor box
-91 CRX MAP sensor
-87 CRX Si inlet fuel line
-87 CRX Si fuel tank
-89 Integra front and rear disk brakes conversion
-etc

If any Info you need feel free to ask.

Here some pics of my CRX when I got it home and started reconstruction of it.

U can go Hasport everything and spend $$$$ on quality shibby

Or fabricate soma it, like linkage for example.....

But some corners can be cut smooth, some not so smooth
