hey guys need some help with this.
I just bought a b16a2 motor today but i'm not 100% sure of what year civic this motor came out of.
wouldn't want to put it into my car if i cant if i cant get it registered. I've got a 98 ek civic ...
engine number is b16a21502541.. i appreciate any help guys.
ek4? 96-98 model ? something along those lines
1996-1998 EK4
1999-2000 EM1 the last of B16a2 motors
yeah i was wandering if anyone would be able to tell what year , i didnt wanna go thur the trouble of putting it in then find out i cant get blueslip for my car
Im pretty sure u can give ur engine number to ur local RTA or vic roads and they can find out what car an model it came from, if im not mistaken
1996 - 1998 but i think he wants a correct month of manufacture as he wants to get adjustment of records to his ek, if motor is older then vehicle he won't be able to register his car
Regardless of the year of the engine if the b16a2 was sold in a 98 ek then you will be able to register is because the engine is 93-98 not a specific year I know this because my engine is a 93 and my car is a 94 model but on the books the engine was offered between 93-98 so your sweet
Hope it helps
so are you trying to say a gen 1 b16 89 model is registerable in ek 98 , because they offer the b16 from 89 to 2000 or whatever it is
umm not sure about the gen 1s but i know that gen 2s are covered 100%
ill do some research and get bak 2 u
thanks champ. cause b16s date back to ls's and crx's
gen 1 b16's are only b16a, so i don't think you will be able to register it to a 98 ek, but regardless of the year of the b16a2 it was offered till 2000 so you can register it with no problems.
just to help you outQuote:
