What motor are you going to swap in? Whatever you decide on, go with a complete front cut to get everything you will need. Add in the cost of an EFi fuel pump and a surge tank, auto electrician etc. Best bet is a ZC from a JDM CRX as a cut or a SOHC VTEC front cut. Both go straight in as long as you have all the parts.

Don't bother trying to change the existing motor to EFi itself - there's no point.

How would you change the d15 to efi? swap the head and fuel tank and lines? Then there'd be ecu aswell? That all?

That's why I said "It's not worth it".:confused::confused::confused:

It isn't worth it at all with that motor - I used to own an ED6.

you can get a set of carbs from the wreckers for about $100. I doubt you could do the conversion for anywhere near that.

I have a twin carb 92 Civi Model just wondering what is the cheapest way of increasing power?

Do a search man. there is a thread in the articles section about twin carb mods. Or check out this thread: http://www.d-series.org/forums/showthread.php?t=1416 There are some free/very cheap mods you can do to the carbs. Apart from these it gets more expensive.

if you just looked at the build threads section there are 2 detailed threads (including mine) on doing this conversion and multiple threads about carby to EFI. I swear there are about 3 posts about this a week, whether it be for ED or EG.
use SEARCH and read other threads before posting....

yeah they do include parts + labor + blue slip and everything you need to engineer your car. 6k is including engine and etc. And they choose the best condition engines, not some dodgy ones

Im doing a swap now,from d15b4 dual carby to a b18cr.got quoted 6500 for b16a or 8800 for jdm b18cr with 5 stud conversion. Depending on your funds, b series will be the way to go, i could only afford b16a but an extra 2k to get type r and 5 stud, i saved abit more

if its around 6k for b16 conversion for gl

how much would be for h22a vtec conversion?
