yes that is correct, i got a half cut of ada6 when i did my conversion and changed the front crossmember over. i am pretty sure the back one was the same as the b18a mount.
Thanks hey when u did your conversion was it a difficult process
If you're going to put a B16 in it, get the proper JDM b16 that came in the DA's if you can. Just my 2c.
Yeah im planning to but its going to involve another trip to japan to get the side moulding and mugen kit and engine ive already got the gauge cluster that goes in nxt week
or look for an old/wrecked EF?
standard da9 engine mount will not fit b16a.better off get a da6 front cut, everything bolt on,and youll get the nice jdm climate control and 8000rpm dash.
9500rpm
but i would suggest stick with the audm aircon...the climate control sks..
me old one

yer it was a bit as i had to change over the entire front harness to have everything plug and play. pulling the whole dash out and changing the gear over was the most time consuming.did it in a weekend with help from a mate. he did the mechanical part and i did the electricals.
note that the extractor flange that bolts to the exhaust is the oposite way to the da9. will need to change the cat if over if the bolts arent rusted on.
my advise though..honestly..get b18c...the 1.6 is fun..but not quite enough
by the way...if u r new u probably havent heard of this www.dacrew-au.com
Ive heard of it but havnt checked it out i will though
I want the 1.6 after i drove A DA6 in japan
what i mean is redline at 8000rpm instead of 7000.i dont really like the normal ac knob,thats why i swaped the whole thing over.Quote:
