wr0ng. obviously the mech. has never done a conversion before.
vti = sohc d16y
vtir = dohc b-series
d seriies mounts wont fit b-series engines.

^^ what mounts are needed then? and how much are they?
for your car, ek4 mounts will fit in b16a, b18c itr/vti-r
thanks a bunch, if you bought a half cut of a integra vtir or r are the brakes going to work with my drums at the rear or will i have to do a conversion there aswell?

or if you bought an integra type r half cut then you can swap over the crossmember. this will eliminate the need to purchase the rear bracket. once again this is for the EK swap.
if you are getting an integra half cut and putting that into an EG then you dont need to buy any mounts the integra mounts will fit.
if you are going to replace you drums with disc brakes. then you will have to upgrade your master cylinder as the brake pedal will become slushy if you dont.
AVPCRX r u reading this hhehe :D see the b18c is better overall over the h22a :P
No, that means he was right, doesn't it? I meant I wasn't sure which one he said, I think it was ek4, which is vtir. :) I think he's done engine transfers before, he was tellin me about a twin turbo civic he was workin on a while ago...Quote:

B18C1 - US spec GSR (VTi-R)
B18C2 - AUS spec VTi-R
B18C3 - Spoon SiR-G / JDM
B18C4 - UK spec VTi
B18C5 - US spec ITR / some sources refer to exist as JDM as well
B18C6 - Euro spec ITR
B18C7 - AUS spec ITR
B18C - JDM ITR and JDM SiR-G/VTi-R only way to tell is if you look at the head and inlet manifold
Lots of different variants as you can see
what about hybrids(i think that is the right term) like a b20b with a b16a head? any special mounts needed for those or will ek4 mounts be all that is needed because its b series
