hey im looking for some information i have a 1995 honda civic with a d15 and i want to swap engines i have a 2.2 will it fit and bolt up to the stock motor mounts and will i have to use the 2.2 tranny or will the 1.5 tranny work

This has been covered before and no to none of that to what you said. Swapping is not that easy. What motor is it, I am either thinking its the h22 or the f22. They are both slow motors but its whatever you want. You need wire harness, ecu, motor mounts and some other things.

and a tranny that matchs the larger engines.

You won't get much out of a 2.2, doesn't matter if its an f or an h. Try selling it and doing a b16 or b18 swap. There is also a much larger selection of aftermarket parts for the b series motors. I'm currently building a b18c1 myself. Going to love the final result...

If he wants real power from a honda he wouldnt bother with any motor except the k series. K series beats them all day.

mac25

we can make a rap ...all day, every day, don't buy a d, buy a k... lol

Wrong. The LS series beats them all.

Civic's don't go fast. I say invest $ elsewhere, like in a FR/AWD car or else cheaper cars are going to do circles around you. Just my .02

02civicsi02

ya ok. Built K always beats a built B.

Mad Dog Tannen

You are right, but that's the equivilent of comparing a go-ped and a moped.

Sure the moped is going to win but they are both losers.

MindBomber

Sorry, but you guys are all wrong. C motor ftw! lol

02civicsi02

Ya but thats a 6 cylinder.

Deviant117

For what it will cost you and how easy they are to find, get a b16 or b18. The motor is small enough that you'll still have plenty of room to work and everybody has parts for them. Will save you money in the long run.

MindBomber

No one said, it had to be a 4 cylinder.

6 cylinder swaps are rare, but hardly new. I know a guy local to me who swapped a c30a motor into an ek hatch, of course with what hes invested in the car he could prob have actually bought an nsx..

Mad Dog Tannen

LS1 swap into RX7 FTW!

MindBomber

I see your LS1 rx7, and raise you a Hayabusa Smart lol
