Hi guys,
I'm not on this site too often, but thought i'll pass on a tip you might like. As you may know, the JDM ignition system is a little different to what we have here. In the sense that we have an ignitor on the distrubutor and not on the fire wall. Here is what to do when you install this JDM motor in your USDM 3gAccord or 2gLude. Scrap the jdm distributor and cam angle sensor.
get the distruibutor and cam angle sensor off of a usdm 87-88
Integra (your better off to stick with the 87, cause i think halfway through 88 they made some revisions to electrical system). All you have to do is plug and play. That how mine is setup and it works great. Oh yeah, use your O.E wiring harness, as long as it was from a fi car.
btw there seem to be quite a few of you doing this swap and i know what you mean when i hear complaints about finding parts. What are you guys using for replacement altenators, i think the 1990 Civic 1.6L altenator is very close.
Would anyone be interested in Delrin bushings for the Front Suspension?? Delrin is simmilar to Polyurethane ,but has better properties.
