[ROM30S]

hey guys im planning on buying an 91 ed6 civic with the sock carbi motor now i used to have a gen 2 crx with the d16 twin cam, cars wrote off but motor runs beutifully i just wanted to know can i drop the d16 straight in and use the d15 gearbox or will i have trouble if anyone can help me out it would be sweet

[R_RaTeD]

i dont think you would be able to use a d15 box ...
its a sohc
the motor ur using is a twincam yeh ?
i doubt u can use the box ...
just get a box out of an eg si or something ?

In reality tts probably just the same if not more efficent and easier to just swap the gearbox over from the Crx to the Civic.

i got the box but i think its crushed or sumthing coz i can only start the car wid the clutch in, also do i need to change engine mounts or fuel lines i mean ive got every thing spare from the crx i just need to know every spare part i need from the crx to put on the civic, does anyone have a link to a project one that somebody else has done before that i could research, thnx every one for there help.

is the d15b gearbox a s20 ? If so will bolt up to your d16a motor

[ROM30S]

that would work out perfectley if it is a s20 the civic is a 91 so what ever gearboxes they come with.

[NTQUIK]

you gearbox code on your gearbox would be on a sticker by your front mount it should fit thou as d16a / d15b use same motor casing just different bore holes

if you are changing from the D15 carby to the D16A EFi you will need to change the fuel lines, and fuel tank for EFI. I thought about doing the same think as i have an ED at home and just got a 90 CRX, but really, SO much work to do to convert it. hope that helps and doesnt dull your spirit :) have fun the little ED would go awesome with the D16 in it

[ROM30S]

well ive got heaps of spare from the crx hopefully there is enough so that i can pretty much just swap em over n not have to buy any extra parts, but this little puppy will be a good project car probly will take some time but ill c how i go, thnks heaps

[EDracer]

yeah that will be awesome, you should be able to with no problem change the fuel tank and lines over from the CRX as they are the same floorpan and same dimentions. should be really good, let us know who it goes.

also it your keen on turning it you could use ZC Pistons or D16a9 Piston's to bump up the compression ill double check on that for you if you want anymore info you can pmd me thou
