Would this be the same as trying to make a Legend (1991) engine and auto fit?
has that been done? would be cheap as to fid one of those as a half

i think J series swap is just for drags, loads of toque at low rpm conpair to k series or b series
with the right setup chassis/suspension, light weight and few engine mods(ecu, custom intake and header) you could easy see a 11sec or 10sec time
i say go for it and do some more research and not list to these non believes
i know of a j seres in civic in qld i see if i can get some info from him
I disagree with the J series swap.
I think it's too much. Business getting out of hand and turning dangerous.
The front end has too much loading in this case and the rear of the civic has nothing. Weight distribution come to mind? Can this even be engineered?
sry double post
i think its sweet by far the craziest swap to put into a car.
its alot of work for sure and the big prob i can see is getting the manual box.
i was real keen to have a go at this swap but that was the only problem i could see, the engines themselves out of the accords were quite cheap. for around $800
dont forget about the custom j-swap header. and 3' piping which may cost you around 1k.
about wiring thing it will pain you really much mate. im not sure there is wiring conversion harness for J series.
rywire make conversion harness's there quite reasonably priced for the quality and the headache you wont get from doing it yourself.
as for headers it dont matter what swap you do you will need to modify the exhaust somehow. weather you but a b18c into an eg, k series etc. etc.
i believe if you were going all out in spending cash on custom driveshafts, ecus, wiring, suspension (because these engines will make a eg sag), etc. etc. y not do the exhaust you will only bottle neck the hp with a d series exhaust.
anyone selling any J-series motors ?!?!
Any wrecker that has Legends.....Quote:

While this thread may appear old.
I had found making the switch over to the J right here in Aus ;)
