B20 Swap
 

I have a 1999 Accord I am trying to sell right now to buy a cheap 92' to 95' coupe or a EK Hatch and i wanted to know is it hard to do a B20B swap. No GS-R head or anything, just want to do a B20. Will the ECU Plug in or will i have to modify it? And what kind or transmission will i need, will a GSR, LS, or CTR, or ITR. Will any of those work? Thanks

RE: B20 Swap
 

youll have to find a OBD1 LS ecu, not to sure about the upper driver side mount, any of those transmissions will work(hydrolic)

LS trans will have the best gears for that motor, but if you can get hold of a type r trans, grab it. they come with LSD, and so the too-short gear ratios would be worth it. oh, and if you can get the b20z, it makes more power, and if you arent doing a vtec head or boost, its way better.

B16A transmission will have the best gearing

i am also trying to do a B20 non-vtec swap into my EG8 4door, the car im getting the engine from is an 87 prelude si, is the OBD the same or what?? and can i use my D15 tranny, and finally will it even be worth it?

the old B20's out of the old ludes are not worth the time nor the money to swap them in.

im also tryin to get a b20 swap done. da best way to go is a type-r tranny n a type-r head or b-16 head. u need da v-tec if doinb20. since dey com non-vtec. i mean it will still roll wit da torque kickin in betta den most b series. the close ratio gears from the type-r will be more then enough. of course the type-r tranny is a lot betta den da gsr n da b16 tranny.all depends on wat u want. if u do a type-r tranny do a type-r head. b-16 tranny n a b-16 head. betta den mixin dem. put in som type-r cams. u will kick som A$$!
