Yes i have the ITR motor in my car, but the code it b18c (they dont use numbers in japan just to let you know)
but anyway.. I LOVE IT! I ordered the complete 1999 JDM ITR motor and lsd tranny swap from Honda Motors Online and recieved it with in a week. I was sooo excited! EXCEPT - Steve sent me a 97' itr instead of the 99... which really sucked because now we had to do more wiring.. 96-97 are obd2a 98-2001 is obd2b (i think) .. my civic was obd2b SO IT WOULD have been easier to of had him send me the correct s**t! but anyway
So, since the mounts that came with the engine wouldnt work, i ordered 99-00 tranny, drivers side and some other bracket mount in order for it to bolt in.
I really cant say much about the wiring because i had one of the guys i work with do all of it cuz he knows his s**t.
We also converted it to manual transmission since it was automatic......
The motor is clean as hell.. the tranny has no grinds, no leaks, didnt throw ANY codes.. and.. it just looks like it was made for the car
And let me tell you.... it hauls ass. when vtec hits, it f**kin pulls hard! god i love it..
UGH id write more but i gotta get to bed! hehehe...
maybe if anyone has questions, feel free to ask.. cuz alot went into the swap (but it wasnt too difficult) and.. yeah
