Ditto.. For a 91, it looks close to perfect!!

Is that an Accord in front of your car?

[STDHatchback91]

Thanks guys, as for mods right now, im just getting everything ready for the engine swap. I have quite a few other things, just haven't gotten them on due to snow. If you go to my website there's a list of things i have bought ( i know it's a little early for a website, i got bored). Adress is in my sig. The car is prety much in perfect condition, except if you look at the side view there's a little rust spot by the rear wheel, and the driver seat got eaten by a dog lol, nothing some corbeau's can't fix =). I hope to have the swap done, wheels, body kit, and paint by spring. I'll keep posted when i get more stuff done. Peace fella's, ad ladies =)

Oh and Accordman, thats a 94 civic hatch, it's my buddy's and the silver car is my eclipse (still have't sold it =\...)

ha ha


Cool.

Which engine did you say you were going with? I didnt see on your site..

:)

[STDHatchback91]

Im goin with the b16a. I was originally, but then i thought it might be to hard to do myself, so i was going to get the ZC, but after a few kids on this site convinced me (thank you) and further studying i decided it wouldn't be as hard as i thought. Me and my step father are doin it, he has an engine pulley, so it should't take long to do, but the wiring is where i might run into trouble. I have a good majoriy of the parts, i need the mounts, harness, and i am ordering the linkage tomorrow. I pretty much have the money for the engine and everything, ut i gotta wait so it doesn't clutter up the garage, because after i pull the stock engine, im gonna strip everything out and paint the engine bay. Hmmmm sorry i got into so much detail, im bored lol. Wish me luck guys. Peace

if i were you......id pick up at LEAST a chiltons Import Car manual, like $30 but a nice investment. Of course a Helms manual for your car and the donor car would be even better, but those are about $65 a piece......but they help immensely!

[STDHatchback91]

I got a chilton's manual, got it off ebay for $10 =)
I pretty much have the idea of how to do it, i've been studying ALOT. I'll prolly need help with a few things, but that's what hondastyle is for right? I'm sure someone on here will be able to help me =). The only thing is i heard you need to replace the MAP sensor, i never knew about that til the other day. I guess i can use one from a 90-93 integra, i'll find out tho. It's still gonna be a while, i'm gonna order EVERYTHING i need first, plus i gotta wait out the snow. My garage isn't tall enough to lift the engine, so i gotta do it outside. Thanks for the info tho, peace

Thats good..

the b16a is well worth it..

The ZC isnt that cool IMO, but it can handle a good amount of boost.

[Whtehnda93DXSdn]

very ncie purchase..it's not bad for a starting point at all..

I want to see some pic of that swap once you get it done..it should haul some ass then..especially being light..

Thask for sharing and look forward to seeing more of it in the future..;) ;)

[KwikR6]

Good luck yo.....b16 going to make that car FAST!!!!
Are you going all go and no show?

[STDHatchback91]

I'm going show too. Right now it's engine tho. I wanna get the swap, pulleys, cam gears, DC header, AEM cold air, plugs, wires etc... maybe some internal stuff, then shw, and when im satisfied, it's internals and greddy turbo kit =).

[KwikR6]

Sounds good to me yo!!!!
Nice werk.

[FeelMyRide]

I'm a total idiot compared to this guy.. I'm proud of you I wish I knew what I wanted & how to do it!!

[Racing Rice]

I think youll like the B16a too, Itll make your little car move..:yes:

[slowEJ6]
