Whats the deal...I need that article...I had it printed out somewhere I lost it a long time ago...anyone have this info to do this swap...I kinda know how...but just need it..lol help..TOM

i despise you

error 404.......

Fine, here you go.

Original link fixt.

is this swap info legit? ive been wanting to swap out the stock motor for something with a little more POWER!!! ne body have any good info on wiring? and possible some feedback on if this zc/d16a swap is worth the work...........my friend is getting rid of his stock 98ex motor and its up for grabs .............will this swap info also aply if i were to swap this in? obviously the hydro tranny conversion, but should wiring be similar and wut not.........any feedback is welcome.

The swap is very worth the effort. Sooo much power. You use the teg harness and the wiring should be just as simple. Good luck.

"This install article is mainly aimed at folks who have a programmed fuel injected (pgmfi) Si model 86-87 Civic or CRX."

huh, it doesn't work on the 85 CRX Si???

Yes, it does, the author made a mistake. There is nothing different enough about the 85 to invalidate the article.

great article..

on wiring I found the Kakabox's write up really helpful. can't find it now , anyone know where it is?
I found the wiring colors little different on my 87 CRX Si (Kakabox was Civic hatch)

according to the write up, 3 wires that need to be extended from the stock Civic/CRX FI harness are:
- red/white
- green/black
- black/yellow

on MY 87 CRX Si, the colors were:
- red/white
- yellow <---*********
- black/yellow

My yellow wire is in the same position as the Kakabox's green/black. so I just used that one(yellow wire) and followed the instruction as if it was the green/blk.

dude none of the links will work for me it will start to load the page then go to internet explorer cannot display this webpage, i even tried just going to technet.ff-squad.com and it wont work either idk what to do,

Great article, very informative. Thanks dude

sorry to bump this old thread, but I need a bit of clarification. I'm almost ready to drop in my motor, and I spent part of the morning sorting motor mounts.

according to Rear Engine Bracket section:
Fig.12-13 show design/shape differences between the civ/crx & integra rear brackets, and obviously, you need to stick with the civ/crx bracket in lieu of the compatibility factor.



does the 2 piece rear trans mount bracket not work at all? it seems more substantial, and it appears as it would work. I don't mind trying the old fashioned way, but if its known to not work at all, it'll save me a few steps.

thanks...

not that anyone is interested, but I made a simple jig and stacked the 2 mounts tonight. by my crude measurements, I can't see why the integra mount won't work. it looks beefier, and I don't have to build shims to space out the manifold brace. we'll see in about 2 weeks when I drop the motor in.

I used the CRX mount and the integra bracket, absolutely no problems, even with a built engine.
