How to manual swap Honda Civic Integra EG EK DC2 DC4

[@mast3rglobe]

Congrats on the swap. I recommend you get that auto brake pedal changed out for a manual one. Most believe you have to change the entire brake and gas pedal assembly to do it, but you can really get away with changing out the brake pedal only and keeping the same gas pedal. I did it that way and it wasn't bad at all, and i've never had problems with doing it that way

[@forcarssake]

Cool! Thank you so much for the tip. I'll try that out

[@Mike-ry4ti]

Get the grinder out and cut it.

Thank you for taking the time to make this video. Great info.

Excellent job, man, respect, keep on rolling your videos, greetings from Ukraine

[@forcarssake]

Thanks man! I really appreciate it!

[@kelvpoon]

I can only dream of doing this some day - I can’t even wrap let alone swap!

[@forcarssake]

Just got to try bro! Hope the video helped

[@raph0renzoo]

Do you also need a manual intake manifold and throttle body? Really good stuff mate!

[@zenith9671]

hey man great video it helped me do mine this weekend im almost finished. Do i need to get a manual ECU or is the auto one fine to run? Are you driving with the auto and its fine?

[@paulinarosarioalers2081]

Question, for the reverse light wiring, where did you get the plug that goes into the hatch dome light wire?

[@forcarssake]

@@paulinarosarioalers2081 great question. I grabbed from a parts car (similar era Civic) the ceiling light wiring.

[@thatwhite_ek]

Hey bro I got a question did u use the auto ecu and auto harness? Cause you have check engine light?

[@forcarssake]

I used the auto ecu and harness, the engine light was because the air intake wasn't installed, and the air flow sensor caused the error.

[@ivanjulce1102]

Hi my I ask do I need to change my ECU too if I do A/T to M/T swap?

[@forcarssake]

@@ivanjulce1102 in this case, no

[@volodymyrforos1031]

Hey, man, how is it going with your upgraded beauty? Hope you enjoy it in the full) greetings from Ukraine!

[@forcarssake]

Have ran into issues recently bud! New video should come out tonight!

[@civicstar982]

Oi I got a question I watched this whole video to see how you handled that upper trans mount. Are you running without it? I have this project coming up for a friends 97 ek and it’s also an HX. So we got the frame Mount piece from the junkyard and then we will drill the frame and put in the nut inserts so it’s like the every other ek chasis. Hopefully 🤞

[@forcarssake]

Yeah, that's one way to do it. I am still making the bracket right now.

[@civicstar982]

@@forcarssake I just did it and that is the cleanest way and it preps you for other swaps like if you go B series 👍🏾

[@forcarssake]

@@civicstar982 all the best with the swap!

[@milocaboose8396]

I have a question, man; I am planning on doing a b series and manual swap in my Ek at the same time. I was wondering about the mounts for the transmission. Would I still need to get the torque mount and top mount for a manual? I am assuming I need to get the top mount and torque mount from the b series transmission or do the d series manual mounts (top mount and Torque Mounts) fits the b series transmission.

[@forcarssake]

B and d series have different mount all together. So you need all the brackets

[@pixelgaming4603]

Do i have to wire reverse light when I put an manual ecu in my b16a2 swap? The car was an auto all that was done was the clutch pedal and gearshift fabrication. The reverse lights worked but all the sudden dont, got volts on fuse on both pins but absolutely no voltage anywhere for the yellow wire in engine loom to reverse switch. None of the honda lads are bothering to help me out so I'm stuck here

[@forcarssake]

@pixelgaming4603 sorry man, but I'm not 100% sure what is causing it to not work in your case

[@themohiru]

HereaaH! NeaaH! GeaaH! Made my day! 😂

[@JakeKwon_01]

do i need to change the driveshaft mate?

[@forcarssake]

No mate

[@allmotorpete]

Hello I’m swapping my Vi ferió from CVT auto to 5 speed. And I’m having trouble with the transmission mount. Which one did you use? Since our chasis are different from regular automatic Eks.

[@forcarssake]

@@allmotorpete there are two options. Make a mount or use the manual mount and add rivet nut inserts

[@allmotorpete]

@ ok cool, thanks. I ended up buying a bracket and mount from Innovative Mounts.

[@allmotorpete]

@@forcarssakeanother question, how does your car idle and did you change the intake manifold ? Mine is surging while idling thinking to might be the manifold/iac.

[@forcarssake]

@allmotorpete yeah check the IAC

[@xxkillerjoker3496]

did you not need to swap ecu from a manual car?

[@forcarssake]

No mate, still running the auto ecu

[@JakeKwon_01]

@@forcarssakeso auto ecu works fine?

[@forcarssake]

@JakeKwon_01 yes it's working just fine on my car

[@jovo21]

Can this be done on an 04 civic with the same swap kit?

[@forcarssake]

Hi mate, 04 is a completely different car so I wouldn't know... sorry

[@kelvpoon]

How many hours?

[@forcarssake]

It took me about a month in total, ut I did run into weird problems such as the T bracket from the CVT was different, my S20 some how ran B series drive shafts, the gearbox mount is also different.

[@xxkillerjoker3496]

did you have too swap your ecu?

[@forcarssake]

No I kept the auto ecu. In Australia we also have immobiliser so a change of ecu will be quite a lot more work

What about EJ8 same shit right?

Should be the same mate

Thanks for the feedback mate, I'll keep it in mind on the next one
