Just got me a 92 hatch cx
 
Yep I got me a 1992 it is Phantom Gray Pearl. It still has the massive 70 horses under the hood. I have already stripped out the whole inside except the dash and
2 seats. It is already wired for a complete bolt-in vtec b-series swap because it is
Canadian.

Anyway the one question that I have got is that my friend he owns his own shop. There he has a d16. I was wondering if you can switch the intake manifold and head off of it onto my d15. I heard you can swap stuff off of differ motors as long as they are in the same "family" such as the d series.

Forget the small time stuff man! Go H22!!!

I'm going to later. The lady I bought it from just put 1600.00 into rebuilding the motor not 2 long ago.

dude if u are going to put a H22 in it later why not just do that first instead of wasteing money on other motors? just a thought

That is what I plan on doing, 93 hatchback with a h22! 200hp stock! DAMN THAT IS BAD![IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

Why not just put the B18 with 180 hp and then you wont have the problem of the motor weighing alot more then the stock one. Thats my plan, I just have to find the right hatchback first.

dude you never buy something that had $1600 put into it! if I wanted a 92 hatch, I would find the one with the worst possible engine (i.e. BARELY running) but still with the best possible chassis and suspension. if you're gonna swap anyway, who needs a well-running d15?

Yea go right for the swap... with 70hp i'd say its a total waste of money to touch the stock engine. I never knew that car was so weak

dude, you dont buy a freakin cx without the intention to do a swap... how much did you pay for it?

id go with the b18c1, that leaves you with the option to turbo later... mmmm... 11s...

JoeyTStyleS 08-08-2002 11:59 AM

that was my whoelplan thing is im still lookin for a b18c to find and also a hatch damn there hard to find them hatches but yea hope everything goes well with it
h22 would prob be a little heavy so id stick with tthe b18c and kik some a$$ with aturbo in there
