as im considering a B18 swap for my EK1 CXi i thought id ask a few questions

1. does the D series radiator fit a B series engine or would i have to find an EK4 radiator too?
2. are the engine mounts for the EK4 and EK1 compatible/swapable so i can fit the B series engine?
3. same above for EK4 gear box?

ive been told not to bother and i just mite not but im curious so there :p

1. SHOULD be compatible - simply hook up the inlet and outlet for the fluid - the thermo fan and switch MAY be different though...

2. D series moutsn are different to B series. Pick up a full set of B series mounts from a EK4 or EM1 vtir...that should be fine for the b18.

3....you mean ek4 b16a gearbox will fit onto b18 ? It will....
or if u are asking , will a deseriesgbox fit a b series engine- it wont.

you will also need to change the ecu to engine bay wiring loom. depending on the year of your car
