Black R

I got my project done a little bit before nopi, and took it there.

I didn't pop the hood and didn't try to attract too much attention other than the burnout contest.

Here's the pics:


(I initially tried to go with the itr hydro clutch pedal and assembly, but the firewall was flexing too much... in the interest of saving time, I ended up getting one of the first hasport hydro tranny to cable pedal conversions.)



ABS installed.



Overall shot of the 5-lug and engine bay.



Closer pic of the engine bay.



.....what people who try to race me see.

chassis - 1991 si (black)
motor - b18c5 from a 2000 itr (15k miles on motor)
tranny - hydro itr from a 2001 itr

OMG

What booster did you use? Good thing you got the ABS in there, those brakes are overkill on an EG, I hate to think about the lockup on an EF. Awesome project

That Tranny mount looks like a prototype or something or was that HASPORT's actual first release of the Hydro kit, because mine is all billet. How come in that picture you are still using the hydraulic lines? I dont see any of the HASPORT cable to hydro LINKAGE.

I need to get some pics of my ITR swap on here.

My JDM B18c ( no # after C ) TYPE R motor with 4.7 Final Drive put down 196hp at the wheels running 16in ROTA Circuit 8's, Hondata S200, and the small *** AEM cold air intake made for the stock CRX engine. ( I had to use a coupler to have it fit the bigger ITR throttle body. The bottom end is stock and the head has never been off. I just added Skunk2 springs, retainers, and Stage 2 cams.

Props to you for installing ABS and 5-lug on a 4th gen. That booster and master cylinder makes my 3rd gen Prelude master cylinder upgrade on my CRX look puny! Hey at least Im running the JDM SIR front spindle and brake set-up. Your car must brake on a dime!!!

I'm sure you can pull higher HP numbers using a Hondata system instead of that V-afc.

Good Job!

I've got some 16" Prelude wheels for sale CHEAP that would look REALLY sweet on the 5 lug on your hatch...

CRV Steelies... that's just.... funny.

Nice work. I like it.

virginia_dude

I like it too, mine will never see that because it isn't clean enough to start with and I don't have the funds for that sweet motor either. Sitting here green with envy.

Wow, ABS on a 91, that is nuts. Nice clean swap.

RobbieG35

SICK! This is exactly what a Hybrid should be like, everything done right! How hard was it to make everything work?

4drEF

That's AWESOME! The ABS really works? REALLY?

What did you have to do to get that to work? Correct me if I'm worng, but don't you have to have the correct axles with the little speed sensors on them AND the knuckles with the speed sensor? How did you do this?

cursED

Very clean!

I've been following your swap for awhile. Interested to see how your guage cluster came out.

bseriesboosted

Looking sweet man. did you get that done at Raceworks

Loaded Butane

Damn thats some nice work. Me likes.

John McClane

you are my idol.

johnzm

OMG im shitting so many briks i can ubild a house with them!


ABS., OBD2, 5 lug AND a ITR swap?

u are crazy man, totally crazy

YumVTEC

black R, you are my idol. i wanted to do ABS in my EK when I did my b18c5 swap and 5-lug conversion, but everyone told me I was smoking crack and that it would never work. then when I did my b17a swap into my wife's EF from the wrecked 92 gs-r I bought, I thought the same thing, and again I wussed out 'cause everyone told me I was stupid.

major props to you from me on having the cojones to accomplish a project like that.

oh, and how's your ground clearance with that 1.8 block and what looks like a JDM ITR 4-1 header?

temp

could you go into detail about the ABS changeover?
