ok thanks
and also, with the discussion of engine mounts (hasports, avid): is it not possible just to use the mounts from the half cut? or do they not fit in the eg?
is this swap more difficult if you start with an automatic rather than a manual?
what more is involved? (with the halfcut, you'd get everything you need for the manual conversion right?)
You need to change driver side mount (atach to the chassis rails) and weld on a manual one. Also drill 2 holes for the shift linkage. Thats about it i think.Quote:

in nsw you do not need an engineers certificate in putting it into an eg civic as it does not pass the 15% engine capacity eg going from 1.6L to 1.8L
i thought it was an increase of power more than 15%... i might be wrong...Quote:

I heard its hard to convert from carby engines to efi engines. Last time i asked its abt 5000 to convert to JDM B18c (55k kms engine) driveaway and ready to go.Quote:

^^ Ditto
That is VERY cheap for drive in drive out especially for a carby EG.
Hey guys,
Sorry i might be misleading you guys then sumwhere, well its best to check this guy out then. I guess this mechanic is a pro in Honda (i saw only hondas), hes located at Jandakot sumwhere..cant really remember the exact street, but apparently hes quite reasonable.
u are wasting your time and moneyQuote:

5-7 k for complete jdm itr conversion
1-2k for labour
really depends what u get and how much work u wanna do
greatr write up
seems pretty straight forward. might give it a go on the weekend..... hahahha not... wow that looks fukd up. cool to know what goes on though!! cheers fo a good write up
Not easy to do but this guy done a good work
B16A2 = $4500
B18C2 = $6000
B18C7 = $7000
All of that includes parts + labour preety much drive in drive out.
If it were injected, I would be looking at same options just minus $500.
Just some info for anyone that has a EG hatch that was curious on prices.
Those quotes were for a EG breeze which I went and got myself from Honbits here in Sydney.
Cheers
Hey ECU MAN i was just wondering other than the ITR front brake setup and rear disk setup were there any other brake/suspension etc upgrades you did to make the eg suitable for the conversion?
I want to put a b18 in my eg n i already have the rear discs since its a vti, but ive got about a year until i got my blacks so some time to save and have it ready to go, anything i might need?
having ITR front brake setup will give you better braking performange, Vti and Gli brake setup will bet hot and give you brake fade quicker
everything you will need for the intsall was covered int he DIY
cheers
ITR fronts gave me 100% improvement over my ek4 fronts
ok sweet thanks heaps ill look into that now, might start with new rotors and performance pads for the back and then get my hands on some integra fronts =]
bumping oldie but goodie thread. thanks for info.
nice write up man helping me alot :D
Maddddd setup. and LOLs at the ghetto exhaust linkage
In the process of planning for the conversion.. But have a few questions, as my car is EG GL (twin carb) - do I need to prepare anything first, given that I have the half cut already... Ie. Fuel Lines? Petrol tank? etc, some clarification would be awesome. And also, don't know if you had mentioned - but is it possible to hack the EG GL loom to work with the VTIR ECU? It wasn't EFI previously.. Or if I have the complete loom, is it better if I just used that?
I have PM'd you.
:thumbsup: for the DIY.
You'll need EFI lines + tank + other bits and bobs
is the EK swap very similar to this write up?
Yes and no.Quote:

This thread does help alot though.
so what else is need in a EK swap ? rear mount and EK4 hardness?
you also have to change the mount bracket on the front of the engine behind the timing belt covers.

Make sure it's an OBD2A engine and that you get an OBD2A P72 ECU
I've also heard that you need the B18C throttle cable and fuel return line but I haven't quite got to this stage yet so I can't confirm.
Cheers for that!
