Hello,

Im new to using these forums but i wouldnt mind double checking something with the others. I have a 98 Civic si, with a d16y8. The motor is at 389,000 km's and im running into a lot of problems now. I have a friend who has a d15b motor (no tranny). If i take the motor and literally just swap it, it should be all interchangeable correct? I was sure that ecu, tranny, mounts, axles etc. were the same and now im starting to doubt. It was the 96 model of civic that had the d15? im getting mixed up and in need of advice!

Thanks very much

Brennan

thank you!

 

Yeah your fine, but use your existing electronics and just dump the motor in and you'll be fine.
