Gearbox will feel stiff because the gearbox in your civic is very soft. Had the same thing when I went from my EK to my DC2. Now the DC2 gearbox feels like my civics did because im used to it.
Ahh ok!
Btw, I am gonna be doing a '98+ spec JDM B18C Type R engine and box conversion. Just waiting for the seller to get his K swap ready.
I just realised that the '98+ spec JDM DC2R's drive shaft/hub size is 36mm. (while AUDM and '96 spec JDM are 32mm)
Cbf looking for 32mm axle outers, or crv hubs, since I need to replace the current brake pads and maybe rotors anyway, so
I might as well upgrade to JDM '98+ brake/5 stud conversion, and of course the brake booster/ master cylinder. Am I missing anything else regarding dc2r brake conversion?
Also, would the stock Eg exhaust bolt up to the JDM B18C header with a 2.5" collector? (Just temporarily)
The thing is, I thought this engine came with the stock P73-013 ecu. I didn't know that you need other ecus like the P28 to use Hondata. Yes, the seller ran Hondata S300. I decided not to buy from him. He already sold the Hondata. Silly me. Now I have a P28 ecu without Hondata. I need to find a ECU for my motor. Can I use AUDM DC2R's ecu? I want to eventually run S300, when I get all the mods that I want to be done. To save some money, yea.
I did this swap a few weeks back dude. Would have to buy an obd1-2 harness from jdmyard, or do like I did and make one yourself (taking a big risk tho). The exhaust from the d series won't fit a b series from memory. And finally mine wouldn't start, then found out as mentioned you have to remove the immobiliser, which can be searched here on the forums (takes 10 mins to remove)
Sorry for da slow progress peeps. I wanted to get the EG resprayed properly in Honda sxc red again + car parts + to fix up body damage, so I needed to save. $3500 quoted at my local spray and repair shop. This includes taking out the windows out, painting from scratch, 'polishing behind the doors and 'polishing' the engine bay.
Hopefully will start the in the next week or so... pull out the blown D16, then off to the spray and repair shop!
Just to show you guys some of the stuff I acquired:
$418.** shipping fee though with DHL, to be exact. =/ Wanna guess what's in the box?
Can anybody translate?
My recent order from Password JDM:
Arrived in 5 business days from the U.S.A!
DC2R 5 stud conversion, with a few extras. Got them off a fellow Ozhondie.
EG6 Power folding mirrors! I'm over the rice-y M3 style mirrors. Spoons mirrors are wayy too common. Hence, the stock mirrors, JDM ones! ;D
I might as well start somewhere, need to get my sh!t started.
PWJDM V2 oil cap:
Wanna guess which is the real and fake carbon fibre cover? I paided US$90 for just for that light-as-a-feather piece, just over $100 in today's low exchange rate!
