B18C2 into EK1

[1996ek1]

Hey just wondering what i would need for this conversion, i think i know most of them, please tell me what im missing....

Engine
Gearbox
Wiring loom
ECU
B series mounts
Driveshafts
Shift linkages
Custom wiring loom adaptor
and some sort of ECU connector harness

Am i missing anything here ?

Then to be legal i would need a brake upgrade too.

So i would need VTi-R front brakes or larger, rear brake conversion, and a larger brake MC, correct?

I think that should be it, just remember to budget a few hundred extra for other small things which will pop up. You'll need header as well but if you get a halfcut they should be included

If you need someone to put it together for you drop me a pm

have to get a motor later then 1996

you should just get a half cut seriously.... saves a lot of time and effort

but stuff u need

1) u dont need b series mounts u need the brackets

- front tranny bracket
- rear engine bracket
- timing belt side engine bracket ( u can mod but heck just buy it )

2) ps/ac pump unless ur not going to run it

3) u cant use the loom from the integra half cut... unless im mistaken stick to a obdIIa one plug thingo.. ek4 harness is good or a civic vti one is nice but u got to mod it i had bad experience there lol.. going to be hard to find a ek4 wiring loom... but yes ecu and dizzy should be the same from the engine

4) o2 sensor

5) throttle body + intake manifold and intake arm and some filter or stock intake thing

6) ur missing all the sensors for the throttle body etc map, iat and the rest...

7) injectors ( better be part of the engine)

8) header!! lol i doubt ek1 one will ever fit the b18c

9) spark plug leads

10) mayb a new fuel pump is good

hmmm... i think i managed to pick up the random stuff missing... and hope that helps

WPN.22R - Im going to be doing this myself (hope it works out)

[ricer] - Already know that one, but thanks

&

scyt7e - I was going to buy a complete running motor, which would have included TB + ITM + Dizzy + Leads + headers + injectors + sensors.

But you gave me few things to think about.

Altho the person isnt selling the motor anymore, change of plans. So im looking for a halfcut again.... just cant seem to find one


And thanks for the help guys

Contact AKMotorworks - they should be able to source you one.

You will also need to get the rest of the exhaust system (from the headers back) and when you do the brakes I would suggest also upgrading the proportioning valve (since you are already there anyway) and you will need, brake lines, e-brake cables (if you are doing the rear), pads, discs, master cylinder (which you mentioned), brake booster and hubs.

Thanks for that, ill write all this down.

And i did contact AKMotorworks, first they said 3650$, then they said that was a special, and it will be $4000+ postage, and postage was quoted $200-$500 which is a very large gap, even tho i mentioned i live in sydney.

I then if they could find one and tell me a definate price for it, and they never got back to me.....

They have been super busy, so drop him another line and he will get back to you I am sure

i got a complete b18c7 for sale...u will need to change the block bracket on the timing belt side to a b16a bracket and u can use your ek1 loom and buy the conversion harness from edge automotive that convert it to a vtec obd2 loom and also a ek4 rear mount bracket

[scyt7e]

you dont necessarily need exhaust from the headers back but it would be a nice thing to have i guess... just go aftermarket after brakes wise u can still run stock setup temporarily and go from there if you get a half cut anyway u should get the brakes as well and i think a teg ones can be swapped over..... mayb
