You can't make that swap. If you swap an engine it MUST be the same age or newer than your car. Since you're driving an EG, which weren't made before 1992, you'll need a newer engine unless you use a different bottom-end like I mentioned earlier.
Otherwise, just check the Parts for Sale section - there's always a couple going around. Or make a Want to Buy thread in that section.
It's a bit of a pity because the original B16A is often considered to be the strongest, but because it's so old it's not easy/legal to get it swapped into newer cars.
So use a B16A2 or if you can get a cheap one (like Beeza's) get a B18C2.
na there the same both have 118kw but gen 2 b16a have 125kwQuote:

And the JDM B16A with 158HP is considered by many builders to be the 'strongest' of the B16's, in terms of toughness, not power output.

wikipedia extract
It's quite obvious to me that a B16A in MT OR AT does NOT make 125kw standard. How is the above correct? On an engine dyno, more than likely though.
Someone might want to edit that article.
why so much confusion? the wiki article is correct. The figures are at the engine.
Jdm b16a gen1 motors make 160hp
Jdm b16a gen2 motors make 170hp
Audm b16a2 gen2 motors make 160hp.
Simple
Isnt it flywheel Hp? not from a dyno atw
exactly all specs are from flywheelQuote:

Engineering point of view states that the engine swapped into the chassis can be older but it will have to meet emissions standards of the chassis year. IE; B16 must meet the emissions of the 1992 EG. Which is very easy to do, Honda motors are very clean.
If the EG was released in Australia with a B16, we could use ANY year model B16 since it is the same platform engine, regardless of 1989 or 1996 for example.
All in all;
- If the car is released with that engine in it standard, the swap is legal and does NOT need engineering.
- If the car is receiving an engine that is older than the chassis and not part of the OEM engine line up for that car, an emissions test is in order to clarify the legality of the swap.
ye i think your right i got a 93 del sol sir engine in my 94 vti and the conversion was done just over a year agoQuote:

Though I think you're right, the B16A2 makes 160 HP and I was confused with the B16A II lol
But the alleged figures from the information you provided don't even give accurate power conversions from HP to KW. 1 HP = 0.7457 KW.
Therefore:
158 HP = 117.8206 KW
160 HP = 119.3120 KW
170 HP = 126.7690 KW
The figure from your quote that I have put in bold has also been edited (by you?) from the original text on Wikipedia - this is because Wikipedia states the following:
"Power: MT: 170ps (118.kW) @ 7,800rpm & 16.0kgm (156.91 Nm) @ 7,300rpm (AT: 160ps (114.0 kW) @ 7,300rpm & 15.6kgm (152.98 Nm) @ 6,500rpm)"
So, according to Wikipedia, the 'B16A second generation' makes 170PS/118KW? The figures don't even match up on that BS site.
Honestly I think there are also several more variants of the 'B16A' according to different sources that make either 158HP, 160HP, 168HP or 170HP. We need to find a more reliable source...

This is all that VicRoads has on their site:
Change of engine
1. Replacement engine is identical to the original engine, or is an option allowed by the manufacturer for the same model vehicle
The optional engine must be offered in Australia by the vehicle manufacturer as an option for that vehicle (or certified variants). The change of engine may be recorded by VicRoads provided that the registered operator or a motor mechanic, or dealer in that make of vehicle or an Automotive Engineer signs a declaration certifying the engine is optional for the vehicle model, and that all modifications made by the manufacturer for the same vehicle model with that optional engine have been completed.
You will need to attend a VicRoads Customer Service Centre to have the vehicle's engine inspected to confirm the new engine details. No appointment is required. You will also need to complete a Change of Vehicle Description form.
2. Replacement engine is not of a type offered by the vehicle manufacturer as an option for that vehicle or where alterations, or changes to the vehicle's frame or structure are made, and/or specially fabricated supports or structures are used
You will need to attend a VicRoads Customer Service Centre for an inspection of the vehicle to confirm the new engine details. You will also need to complete a Change of Vehicle Description form and provide VicRoads with:
* a VASS Approval Certificate from a VicRoads Vehicle Assessment Signatory
* an original receipt for the purchase of the engine as proof of ownership of the engine
I know that with the VASS (engineering certificate) they check all kinds of bullshit...noise pollution, emissions, ride height, suspension stiffness, brake effectiveness etc.
But if you're right that would be really nice because maybe then I could stick an older B16A into my EH9 :D
Ring your local engineer, he should tell you its fine as long as you pass emissions.
Think R32/33/34,S13, S14 with big rb30det's in them tstusdtusutusutuuu lol
way to much letters lol
Somehow i dont think this guy plans on engineering an engine conversion... I wouldnt bother, so why would he?
It's not the point if you can't be bothered or not, it's information for the general to know, right or wrong.
Someone might want to transplant an older engine for a reason I don't know and read some false information and throw the idea in the bin when it was infact possible, in NSW anyway.
You don't award correct marks for something you answered wrong because you won't apply it in your life, facts are facts.
nice signature by the way
I'm sure your insurance company won't cover you if you forget to mention that you've done an engine conversion, or if you mention it but don't tell them that it's not registered with that engine.
Either way, best to play it safe and just do it the proper/legal way.
I know you may not, and 99% of people on this forum wont agree with me, But I dont get my facts from any internet forums. If i need to find something out I go to people with the knowledge im after and speak to them face to face. Id never do anything or ask any question on any forum because for all i know the person that replies is a 15 year old who knows how to google/wiki for the information... I can do that myself if I want.Quote:

As for my sig, If you like it, then you will know who wrote it. If you dont, then you are one of those stupid people I laugh at.
