    Default Just a little help please

    So, I'm looking into picking up a decent little 93 del sol on saturday. The only thing I need to know is where are good sites and places to get parts, and what all is interchangeable between that and the civics?

    Thanks.

    all suspension parts swap over. all engine parts but if you go B series you will need a Del Sol VTEC shift linkage.

    I'm glad you mentioned that. I plan on going up to a b18 when this motor gives way, now as far as that swap goes what all do I need?

    I was thinking: motor, tranny, axels, wiring, ecu, and now i guess the shift linkage

    When I swapped my old Del Sol, it consisted of...

    B20, Y21 B16 tranny, Del Sol VTEC shift linkage ( $187 at Honda ), hydro integra LS mounts, axles, and ECU. Stock wiring harness was used. In your case, if it's an S model it came with the D15B7 non-vtec but since it has a D16Z6 swap, you have VTEC ( we assume it's wired up anyways ). If you have VTEC wired up, cool. If not, it isn't that hard to wire. I used my stock Del Sol transmission mount and a CRV A/C bracket. Never got around to hooking the PS back up. It's a straight forward swap just like any other Honda.

    You CAN modify your stock shift linkage by cutting the transmission end off and welding part of an Integra linkage in but I refuse to do such a thing. I went ahead and dropped the money on the exact part that I needed from Honda.

    I appreciate all the info, that is about everything I need to know.
