any1 know where u can get a fog light switch for DAs
im just using a demister switch :) works just fine
also, if you get the second fog light, you will have to rewire them separately coz the second one wont work.
A-man
22-08-2008, 08:31 PM
u could just wire it in and use the blanks in the dash

yeh i looked in my manual the other day and the fog lights r an option on the american ones so u can use those switchs they look like the demister switch and will bolt straight in...
as for the centre console just check items for sale on g2ic but im in the process of getting one... and a coin holder near the steering wheel ive never had one WTF with that

hey, question about main fuse box in engine bay?
if i disconnect that fuse box for 30min maybe, will anything happen to the timing or general running of the car? i want to disconnect it in order of relocating it.
what u think?

No problems at all, you may have to reset your clock and radio stations, as you should disconnect your battery too.
A-man
27-08-2008, 07:31 PM
y do u wana relocate it????
that doesnt make sense....
every setting on ur car is determined by some point of the engine wether it be timing, ignition valve timing everything
even in new cars theres something somewhere to work tdc etc. out
so saying this its not gonna do anything wether u take the battery out remove a few fuses or anything... u can reset ur ecu.. but thats different
im chasing a DA9 thermo fan relay if anyone has one let me know please
tseesinngwailo
27-08-2008, 07:52 PM
disconnecting that should reset your ECU I would think, best to start car and let idle for 10 mins to allow it to set itself up again, this is needed if you have headers/cold intake etc

29-08-2008, 01:06 AM
is this the same for us in Vic for engineering a new or diff motor to a car?
"as long as its from the same age or newer chassis , and is within 15 % capacity increase there is NO need to get it engineered. You only need to re assign the new engine number to your car , with an "adjustment of records" from the RTA. $32 or so.
easy."

do i just need the long block, ecu, ecu harness, dizzy, vtec solenoid? to get everything up and running? would i have to change any belts, manifolds blah blah blah? hope someone gets bakc to me soon. also. how much would it costed me if i registered it with the rta?

07-09-2008, 11:03 AM
if i get the b16a, do i need to get new wiring looms or can i use the same ones?
and if i get new looms do i still need a ecu conversion harness to get to OBD1 as i am OBD0??
or
if i get new looms i can just go straight to OBD1 without a harness?
cheers.
DA9B18C
07-09-2008, 01:24 PM
u wont need new looms if u get a harness, thats the point of the harness. if ure serious, let me know i have an obdo to obd1 harness i bought for my conversion that i never ended up using. i got it from edgeautomotive

FR33K
07-09-2008, 02:10 PM
you dont need to convert to obd1 for a b16a
use existing loom and add the 4 wires for vtec solenoid, oil pressure switch, knock sensor, and the 2nd o2 sensor (i think)
DA9B18C
07-09-2008, 03:18 PM
but the original ecu wont be vtec? just wires to run vtec?!
are'nt non-vtec ecu's and vtec ecu's diff???
FR33K
07-09-2008, 05:03 PM
use obd0 vtec ecu i.e PR3
mooshie
07-09-2008, 05:05 PM
you have to change the ECU, but if you have an OBD-0 B16a then you can do just as FR33K says, no need to change the entire loom.

offset looks a lil too low...
bit of camber might fix that though!
A-man
16-09-2008, 11:56 PM
offset cant be changed by camber... if u changed the camber on those wheels to fit em in them wheel arches u wouldnt have any tread on the rd it would b riding on sidewall :P
ok chillax...
ok leave the camber..... flare the poop out of your guards and slam it!!!
stand back and fap..... or get in drive around and watch everyone else fap;)
or you could try and find p1s in a more suitable offset like +35...
obviously the more mature and sensible option out of the two...
but then again, you have the rest of your life to be sensible!

A-man
17-09-2008, 06:59 PM
APPARENTLY u can use the later model civic wipers and make them backwards u know how the civic works like / \ and move away from each other... all u need is the motor off the later civic and then it works its on g2ic it sounds alrite
yeh no one wants to be sensible....
theres a few people who have done them... but i think u should justify the cost of a b18c and the conversion coz i looked at it and the work... u need to know ur stuff to be able to do it...
i priced frnt cuts cheapest i could find for dc2 vtir was 2700
now when i went to just get PARTS to do a conversion it was 800-1k for a head
200 to 600 for a ecu
gasket kit for 200-400
new seals
weld oil gallery up..
etc. it was alot of work for what it was... and then its just easier to put a new motor in...

Building it is the fun of it though :)
You would also need a fair few other bits n pieces...
head studs
rod bolts
bearings
fluids, oil and gasket sealer etc
labour costs for outsourcing
various specialty tools needed
+ more most likely
Sounds like quiet an expensive swap. I wonder what performance vs. a vtir b18c would be like.
Wonder what the cost would end up looking like if you were do go an ls vtec build using new aftermarket pistons, camshafts etc in the process
If the price is similar to a vtir halfcut in the end, then with this swap at least you have a freshly built engine... thats depending on how you view the reliability arguments of this swap.

18-09-2008, 01:50 PM
i considered it a few yrs ago when the engine on my old da was on its way out...
i remember speaking to a few people about getting it done, then realised it would b alot better to do a straight b18c conversion, and just work on that.
but u seem like the kinda guy who enjoys the work and the challenge of it all... so i wouldnt put the whole thing past ya. let us know what you decide

yeh but most people i know who are associated with hondas arent mechanicly minded and arent into DIY this is why a conversion is easier.... and for me i can do that stuff but i wouldnt because of the cost....
it also makes it a 'bastard' engine.... its got bits from everywhere....
and heads r expensive and as hard to find as a frnt cut...

You are right.
I find it a hobbie and a challenge. I guess thats why i'm an aprentice mechanic. I think if i hadnt had a few years experience and done all the schooling i have i would never even consider an engine build, even an engine swap would be a difficult option as i dont think i would have had the confidence in doing such a thing. I'm just looking into it at the moment as i have other things to finish first, not to mention the cost involved.
It can cost upto and around $7000+ from the research ive been doing to get all the components you need. Thats including the cost of a head and pretty much everything internal brand new... pistons, rods, cams, valves, valve springs, retainers, cam gears, outsourced block and head for work, all new gaskets and belts, fluids/gasket maker etc, bearings, studs/bolts, new pumps, injectors, plugs, new IM and TB, headers ECU etc etc..
Thats a pretty much all out build which would make a brand new engine built by yourself.
It could cost a hell of a lot cheaper if you dont want to upgrade the cams/valvetrain and use the LS rods and get cheaper pistons etc etc.. You could definately come close to halving that cost by using cheaper parts.

I have a 1991 DA9 Integra with a B16A, complete with the JDM wiring looms, and I believe, a OBD1 ECU, can anyone tell me where the plug is that needs to be shorted so that I can check/adjust the timing? it's never been done since my conversion, and I just want to check.
Thanks

tseesin what timing are u talking about??? ignition??? or cam? both of these can be done with either the timing marks on the pulleys or with the dizzy and a timing light....
the only timing controlled by the ecu is ignition timing... and the advance for the ignition..
but the plugs r under the glove box.
the ecu is under the carpet on the same side.
a bit of constructive critism on the laps.. u shouldnt back off the throttle on and off mid way around a corner dnt let the throttle on til u know u wont have to get back off it....
just somethin to think about

guys what do you thinkg about reseting springs? im thinking of resetting(compress) my king springs lows (rears)cause i just called up a place($60 bucks for rears) and they said its not such a good idea because its FWD. What do you all think?
A-man
30-09-2008, 08:52 PM
how much r new ones??? i dont think theres anything wrong with it.. is that 60 bucks removed reset and then refitted? thats not a bad price but i thought a set of springs were only a little more then that fitted... i know the tyre places around in perth charge around 300 350 for new springs.... and fitted
kikxz
30-09-2008, 11:08 PM
oh nah ive already got king spring lows in my car but im not to happy with my rear height. Thats $60 for me to take out my rear springs and to hand it over the the guys and then they reset the spring rate or whatever they do. If they took it out reset it etc and done it again it would be around 120ish

Cheers, Tseesinn
plug you were looking for is the gray plug near the heater blower its got a grreen and white wire and a brown wire.
if you car is a genuine xsi it should be obd0 (look for the pr3 code on the ecu)
the only 1st gen b16a in the integra was the b17a which only the americans had. that motor was obd1, but even then that was pretty rare.

got a quick one for you guys...
need new brake pads (front and rear), im looking at the bendix range, ultimate for rear and heavy duty for the front.
im not quite in the know when it comes to brake pads... has anyone tried any that they would recomend?
keep in mind the car is driven normally most of the time with the occassional spirited run every now and then.

05-10-2008, 09:47 PM
i got bendix and i dont look back
very good pads done a track day in em and there not badly priced...
when i buy new ones im gonna get the ones off ebay.. (check them out cross drilled and slotted brembo rotors with pbr pads) for 280 bucks
each to there own just seems cheap for me
im using iridium plugs and i got cheap 10.2mm leads off ebay
otherwise factory honda ones r good to.
the reason i buy things like 10.2mm leads and shit is that its cheaper from the states, i got msd external coil so its a little stronger aswell.. the plugs were because im lazy... thats all otherwise id use honda ones
thescotty
05-10-2008, 10:01 PM

yeh ill find the link
i think stock leads r bout 6mm... but i cant member off the top of my head i know when i put em on i went FARK there huge u know...
nah iridiums r good for 100,000kms stock spark plugs r only good for 10-20,000kms
i didnt get any diff from the iriduims but like i said im lazy.. (must b coz im a mechanic or somethin :P)
ill grab the link now... its up to u i find my bendix pads r alrite with brake dust but i only had em on for a few months and i kept the car clean even if it dnt look like it atm :P

hey, will a h4 HID kit fit our headlights? i think someone fitted a h4 bulb and said it worked.
is this right?
thescotty
06-10-2008, 10:23 PM
yeh i had h4 bulbs the bracket thing u clip over the globes to hold them in place wont work though, but they still worked!
lo0se3r
07-10-2008, 07:40 AM
We use H4H bulbs, similar to the H4 only 2 of the 3 arms are smaller.
thescotty
07-10-2008, 08:37 AM
but the H4 still work :P
thescotty
07-10-2008, 02:00 PM

07-10-2008, 05:13 PM
H4 will work... i put them in a couple of yrs ago, but i had to modify the head light casing to allow them to fit correctly. ill c if i can dig up sum old pics of the results. pm me if u want them
A-man
07-10-2008, 07:01 PM
yeh thats all good man u should make sure the valve will move in the housing... but thats a good site the one i was thinking to
do HID produce heat??? if so u may wana make sure if h4 and h4h arnt to close to the lens because it may melt it
i know for a fact the vt commodores with the aftermarket headlights u can melt them if u dont have them aligned properly
DA9B18C
07-10-2008, 09:53 PM
wicked-for the HID question, now to a more serious one!
how can i clean my oil sump if it somehow got water in it while off the engine?
will straight degreaser and elbow grease work or will the water just evaporate with the heat from the oil while the engine is running?
im not talking alot of water but maybe a 1/2 cup max?
A-man
07-10-2008, 11:25 PM
can u get a robowash???
coz it heats em up to 80 degrees and then itll dry up....
coz otherwise its not alot of water... just empty it then put it on....
its not a huge problem the water will evaporate and leave out ur pcv anyways... its not aot of water...

nah its not i just havent had time to lower it... the shocks r stuffed to so its not the best handling car either

damn A-Man thats a clean ride congrats
string
09-10-2008, 09:37 AM
I wouldn't have expected it to handle well even with good shocks. RWD does not mean good handling, it means the power drives the rear wheels lol
A-man
09-10-2008, 06:44 PM
i never said it would handle better.. but stuffed v good shocks is a big difference... plus the car has wider then stock tyres..

For those that know me, I have been talking about this for 3 years, finally some action..
New parts from the US and here-
10133
Turbo installed, had to slightly trim the block but it got in there beautifully. Dont mind my leaking cam cap, got a replacement, just gotta fit it!
10136
Oil return, nice and short, and straight too.
10137
The install is complete now, but I don't have any pics of the completed setup yet.
Thanks to the guys down at Performance Exhaust at Northmead for a beautiful job and in a short timeframe too. your efforts are much appreciated guys!
Car is currently getting the fuelling and management side of things sorted out and we will be ready to go!
A-man
10-10-2008, 10:26 PM
where did the parts come from who in the states? from spoolin?
i love it u get to keep a/c except if it was me i wouldve used my intercooler... but each to there own hey
love the gauges i wanted to do that to mine but i couldnt get the din the right size to fit... u get that none the less very good man what size exhaust have u got????
i could only fit a 2inch til the sump then 2.5 inch
mooshie
11-10-2008, 12:14 PM
manifold is second hand bought here, for the life of me I cant remember who makes it. Turbo is locally sourced GT2860RS all the little bits and pieces ate from ATP Turbo.
Your intercooler is a nice setup, but I didn't want to fluff around with the radiator etc.
DIN panel is just a metal item from Just Jap, had to trim the metal sleeve that the radio fits into and shaved a bit of the plastic at the top and bottom of the hole it all fits into. not too much of a hassle and it fits nicely. Gauges are 52mm (I think) not the more common 60mm.
After the cat at the moment I am running 2.25 to the muffler with twin 2" outlets. I want to change the bodykit so will do all this to 2.5" then.
mooshie
11-10-2008, 12:20 PM
BTW on the air con fan in our cars, the smaller one on the passenger side, which is the positive wire and wich is negative? I would assume blue is positive, but assuming can make a mess sometimes... Can someone check it for me? I can't access the car at the moment to do it myself.

11-10-2008, 12:29 PM
hey does anyone here have a white da with side skirts,lip and rear skirts, altezza lights and very clean?? was down on beach road blackrock today???
A-man
12-10-2008, 02:13 AM
it doesnt matter.. because the windings in the fan will determine the direction not the polarity of the wires but easiest way to check is check continuety between both of them...
so connect one to the car body or neg terminal and one to the wire, then if u get continuety then thats the negitive... u can double check this by doin the same but change it to volts and one will give u volts the other wont..
otherwise tmrw ill check for u the wiring.. and let u know

jforsta
14-10-2008, 03:52 PM
Nah bought it from a young family in Malvern who only had it for a couple of weeks before they realised they had over-extended themselves finacially.
Rear was damaged when I bought it and 92 rears are frigg'n expensive to buy so I put on a different one (and ended up paying more LOL). Think it was called "extreme-bar" . Kinda bit much but it's grown on me lol. Plus the line worked with my sides so that was cool.
