A couple things I noticed which I thought I could chime in on: In my EK B20 swap I used a 94-01 Integra shift linkage and had no issues You can use all your stock single cam mounts so long as you use a 2 bolt post mount, make sure it's the short one! Thanks again for the excellent video as usual Dana!
@@adventureswithbuna6207 I retained my AC with a CRV P7J AC bracket and just bolted my single cam ac compressor to that bracket. Power steering is a little more tricky
My son and I are building a 96 hatch. We started with the B18 swap but had a boat anchor for a motor. Got a JDM B20 and poked it in. Edelbrock intake manifold, Skunk2 Alpha header, AEM dual chamber intake. Car actually moves pretty good! Car also has every suspension bushing replaced along with various Skunk2/Meghan Racing components. Just needs body/paint although it is still presentable. I tell anyone who wants to work on a car for the first time to buy a Honda, so nice to work on and very affordable. This is the first car I've actually built from the ground up having put my dirty mitts on literally every bolt in the car. Awesome video, sorry for the rant.
Hey yo it’s the guy with the Civic with the pony decal on it when we met. I just wanna say it was awesome seeing you at Honda Acura Mornings and I can’t wait to see you in the next one when I get back from the Philippines BTW hoping to get a B series in my Civic soon
I wanna do this with my 96 DX but had no idea where to start or what to do. This video was extremely helpful by giving me an idea of what I'll need and the work that would need to be done. Don't think I'll be able to do this since I have zero experience but at least I'm aware now, lmao.
Wow wow wow excellent video! I love the fact that no shortcut was done so I hope this video spreads out like wildfire Me I gotta show this to future customers or inquirers as you explain a lot and completely in less than 15minutes what I’d end up talking in redundant paragraphs 😂 Clean clean conversion “beer” bump to you man :)
I've done a lot of B series swaps. You can use the D series motor mounts all of them. All you need is that t bracket and the driver side engine post mount. The Integra shift linkage works great if you get the one from a Type R it's usually gold or the GSR. It works way better than the EM1 shift linkage for sure.
yes finally, I've been waiting for this video for a long time. Greeting from Puerto Rico. your content is great and i learned a lot from everything you have done.🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷
Dam beautiful work. I know for a fact 96-98 civics have a hard time staying alive. Also fa5 civic will always be lost. Idk why but those years always develop a problem being crash or motor blow out. I think those years are cursed.
if you follow the wires on the jumper harness, you'll see most jumper harnesses merge the a12 and a14 so that you don't have to do the iacv conversion on the ecu side. I noticed this on my harness after I did the conversion
Mad respect bro been wanting to buy a eg again and do a swap. Like that's broo might have to take to u I'm in east San Jose much love brotha keep pushing these videos out 💯💯💯💯💯
@@noobatnothing my mistake- dc4- b to k integra. Like what could be kept on harness if anything, what needs extended/changed, what needs done with shift linkage ect.
Awesome vid bro. I have a 97 hx coupe and as soon as the current d motor in it dies, I'll be putting in a b series. I was most worried about the wire harness compatibility but this helped quite a bit. Good stuff.
@@SamslamminCars I have beat the shit out of it for years, I'm starting to think the same. Maybe one week I'll forget to fill her up with more oil. She sure likes to drink lmao
Bro I like your videos, salute you! I have a 05 Honda Accord ex that I’m putting together, but I can’t get my steering together, I change the pump twice, and it’s still hard now I change the rack and it’s still hard, someone told he to change the pump again because it might have got burn out again!💯🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
Judging from the headlights it's a 96, I don't think the 98 had the bubble on the corner, but I could be wrong and the smoother headlight was on a 99. I've owned like 20 Civics since 2004 but somehow now I mess with v8 Mustangs but still love my Hondas and have tons of knowledge.. Fastest I ever dropped a b20 into a DC Teg was 45 minutes but that was without taking out the old engine however I used a shift linkage I got from a buddy and the shifter sat to high forward in the console so I might of had a non b series one...nice job man
NICE WORK IM ABOUT TO B20B VTEC MY 91 CRX SI WOULD LIKE A LITTLE INSIGHT SHOULD I DO OBD0 OR OBD1 THE 90-91 INTEGRA LS ECU LS TRANS THE EXPENSIVE TUCK HARNESS THE CPR COIL KIT HONDATA V3 OR S300 IM GOING TO BUILD AND BOOST A FEW TIPS ON WHATS BEST WOULD BE APPRECIATED KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK AND CONTENT 💯🍻
If you use the harness from the Y7 Good luck with the Idle air control valve wiring conversion its a pain in the ass converting it at the ecu and having it work properly
Hopefully someone replies cause it’s been fat problem. I swapped my stock 5 speed transmission to a LS but I still haven’t been able to figure out how to bypass or find the compatibility wiring. I get no response at all anymore. The dash lights won’t turn on or head light
So if I crashed my car and it had a VTEC build I can’t use that same hairness for example Integra to civic if it’s the same motor. Just so I know what I need to possibly buy
Hell yeah bro my brother is doing the same exact swap on a 96 ex coupe I, I have a question though, what parts would I need to upgrade if I can my daily 96 ex it has the 16i8 non vtec
I'm doing a b20b swap on my 99 ek hatch and I was using the stock crv intake manifold (short one with plenum) and I can't seem to find the plug for the IAT sensor on my harness but I see the sensor on the opposite side of the intake manifold. Wasn't quite sure what to do there 😅
You use a eg or integra engine mount motor side ek are different your engine Will sit a little bit lower and you Will be not able to install the lower torque mount
Hey man I was wondering if you would ever do a video talking about how to actually own a modified car. With smog laws And such for example this car. How it pass smog ? Is the smog tech gonna realize it not the stock motor do you do paper work to make the swap legit ? So on and so on. Cause I want to modify my car but I don't even think it's possible living in CA or you guy just jnow how to navigate that
Hey as for your ? You can swap any b series jdm swap in ek sedan or hatch but you'll need us 🇺🇸 oil pump for crank sensor to work with wiring harness in us 🇺🇸 and integra charcoal vacuum pump to be bard legal if I'm not mistaken 😉
its probably the secondary o2 sensor i didn't see you tucking that up anywhere which is usually the route i did leave for a few minutes tho so maybe i missed it .
@@javziovaldez3024 But if the K swap is more reliable with boost and the k24 is a cheap swap if you search and pull all the parts yourself…except for mounts. VTEC b swap is more expensive then a K now. And H is Super Rare now. 👍🏼
You used the stock dx ECU? If I got a b20 engine with the ecu, I could just use it with the wiring and no have an issue? I’m new to the Honda game. I got a free 97 dx and looking for either a b20 to later put a b16 head or a small turbo on the b20. I have my eyes on a 98crv 5 speed with some miles for free as well. It’s in New York so she’s all rotted……. Awesome video! More interested on the wiring job……… I’ve done LS swaps in my trucks so I’m not scared on the wiring. I just haven’t really looked on it much in forums as I don’t have the engine yet and still finishing my 91 burb.
Yo what’s up everyone does anyone know how the vacuum lines go on when doing this swap. I’m stuck and need a little help knowing where they go. Thanks for all the helpful videos brotha they have helped a ton.
Ever have a d16 throw a p0301 p0302 and a p1300 on a 96 ex? Been trying to get this thing to last till I can put in a b series. Did the plugs and wires
I did the hybrid racing front bushing and rear as well on my hybrid shifter. Sucks bro the sold stuff Rattles And broke my shift linkage front front mount
What brand are those engine mounts? I can verify that Hasport bushings fits like a glove on Sickspeed B swap mounts. I had Sickspeed 100A mounts on my 97 Civic with a y7 to B16 swap. I later replaced the bushing with Hasport 65A and the vibration sounds are now almost gone.
My bro have a 96 Honda Civic lx or ls something like that. He wanna engine swap with something with a more powerful engine. Can you please help me figure out what type of replacement engine i should get and what other parts he needs and is it worth it. Thanks 🙏🏽 enjoy your content.
So im not a honda guy but my daughter has a 2000 civic dx w/auto trans. I can buy a 96 4 door integra w/auto trans for cheap. I know there are the obd2a and b differences. My question is should i just buy the integra for the trans,suspension,and rear disc brake stuff and wait to find a 99-01 crv and then use the harness,mounts,and engine for a obd2b b-series engine w/auto trans swap?
Love seeing videos like this. Keep the younger generation and new enthusiasts interested by showing them the way

my ek swapped b20b doesnt want to stay turned on it starts strong and then dies off immediately after
@@dior9962have you checked timing your idle air control valve or any leaks in the intake system? I would also check for fuel.
Took me two weeks as well. Came down to crv p/s bracket and the passenger side axle. Otherwise I had everything else from an Ls integra 😂🎉
I'm having issues also bogging when I take off and when it's sitting and I rev sounds good any idea

Use the torque mounts on an Ek. If you don’t the driver side mount bolt holes on the frame tend to rip off if you don’t.
Appreciate the effort and detail you put into the videos! This video is gonna help me a lot in the future for sure

I did the hybrid racing front bushing and rear as well on my hybrid shifter.

Man can I get a full part list like you sent this guy …
But for a 98 sedan to b18B both non vtec motors
going from a 97 d16y8 vtec to a 97 b20b non vtec. will the wire harnesses match? if not what's needed to make this swap happen?
What brand are those engine mounts? I can verify that Hasport bushings fits like a glove on Sickspeed B swap mounts. I had Sickspeed 100A mounts on my 97 Civic with a y7 to B16 swap. I later replaced the bushing with Hasport 65A and the vibration sounds are now almost gone.
