For one you will need to convert to EFI as your car is carby. Use a VTi fuel tank or something similar. Have you searched the forums? This has been covered heaps of times

Eg: I think Danny did a diy article on it and I know there are a number of EG's running around on this forum with B16's in them

EG6 harness I believe is the loom (the wires that connects to ECU, the cluster, aircond unit etc etc). You need a fuel pump as well. If you look around for front cuts, you can get some decent ones for under $2500 where they dont strip anything other than the panels on the outside. This includes everything under the bonnet. Stuff like aluminium radiator, stock struct bar, front lip, cluster, climate control unit, ABS unit (if you find an SIR II). If you're lucky, you may also get the front brakes + stock sussy which are bigger than the standard EG civics such as the Si or VTi. And if you're really lucky, you may also get the rear brakes for free..

fuel pump

**dcii_sir** · 08-10-2005 10:06 AM

I think its a bit expensive for a non front cut and the postage is $350 as well. I dunno what else you need coz I got everything off front cut ...

**timmya2** · 08-10-2005 10:30 AM

true i would rather just get a front cut, danny's writeup specified that eg6 frontcuts are around 2600..

i cant find any in this price range.. if someone finds one please please please shoot me the number.

cheers

Yanks are buying up the B16 market, which makes it really hard.
If your really having trouble finding a front cut, you could sell your current car and buy the real thing?? Add in the total cost of a conversion and the real thing can suddenly become a much cheaper proposition...

There are also a lot of other motors that would be good in your Civic: AUDM D16 VTEC or JDM D15B VTEC, then there is always the H series...
