If you see the damaged door? it was a kids that made dose. :(

[shepherd79]

where are you getting B21 from? I never heard of that engine?
what car is it from?

[reanimator420]

lol haha

[smufguy]

if the B21 is out of the Prelude, then no it wont fit. its like tryin to fit a b20A5 out of the 3rd gen lude and its not the same block, even tho the B20A shares the same appearance.

Ill take ur tail lights tho :)

[MessyHonda]

:welcome: to the site...the only engine that will bolt in will be the b20 that came in the accord...i bet you can find them in NZ(i think you are from there) anyways your car is nice. i like the 2 tone thing that is going on.

[Tomisimo]

B21A1 2.1 16V DOHC PGM-FI 2056 140hp@5800rpm 135tq@3500rpm 90-91 Prelude Si

This is the motor that i found on the skrapyard...
and no i'm from Norway. not from NZ - NewZeland

just for the note - Mi english is pore. speak bether than tipe.

[Tomisimo]

If you can se, i'm been in the crash acident last winter :( whole pasanger side was damaged. I repared all mi self, you can still see the lightblu fender. Car gona be painted after the bodykit is in place.

Whut do you think peaple?

[ghettogeddy]

scra[ the b21 and look for a b20 out of the same year accord or prelude as long as its a b20a not a b20a1, the b20a will swap right in

[mkymonkey]

ill tell you what i think as soon as you show me the kit youre going to put on

[2ndGenGuy]

Cool headlight wipers! Yeah!!!

[Tomisimo]

Cool headlight wipers! Yeah!!!

They are ugly... !!! i'm gona remove those :) as soon a body kit arives.

[shepherd79]

way to go, make a rice out of the car.

[Tomisimo]

[2ndGenGuy]

What you're going to get rid of the wipers??? Those are a sacred thing... We don't have them here in the US. To get rid of them would be a tragedy! Ok, well at least sell me the motors and wiper arms, and the headlight wiper switch!

I can foud you headlights and you can have mine wipers for resinable price ;) if you want to... you can rebild your Accord... gona be onawa kind ride there in US... you will need new bonet...

[2ndGenGuy]

All I need are the JDM headlights. I've got a 2gee. No pop ups for me. No front end conversion necessary. I just need the grille from a 2gee with the wipers, the wipers themselves, motors, and lights. I'd be willing to bet the headlight wipers are the same from the 2gee to the 3gee.

yay nice to hear that...i think the 5th gen accord lip does look good on our cars...check out cheeseburgers car. i kinda liked the z24 sideskirts that ricer36 had....im not sure if they will fit a 4door but other than that it looks good....with all that money that you saved get the nicer engine and performance mods

Yess... new motor is on the way allready B20A to be exakt. with no trany :( he sold it, so i want to know, can i use 5speed i allready have , on b20 motor.
one more thing. they said to me that thet engine has being apart from body for about 6 years. can it be a problem? I gona rebuild it enyway. just to be sure.

[shepherd79]

first, your question about the tranny has been asked milliion times. you should use search buttom before you post it. answer to your question would be NO. You can't use A series tranny on B series motor. It has to be B20A tranny. No other tranny will bolt up to it.

second, since the engine has been sitting outside for 6 month, you may want to rebuild it before installing it.

yeah you should rebuild it....after you find the tranny it should be good to go....sounds like its going to be a fast car when you finish with it

[Tomisimo]

Is it any 6spd tranny for B20a? or its only 5 speed? coz i can se in database in junkyard nettwark. maybe i find some B18a trany there. in what car models this kind of tranny came with?

You gyes help me alot vith direkt info. i be happy to lern more about swap tricks.

[shepherd79]

1st: there are no 6 speed.
2nd. they came in 3g accord, 86, 87, 88. and 86-87 prelude
anything else will not fit or bolt up.

and please use search button. this has been asked many times.

[snoopyloopy]

thoes are more rare than the b20 tranny....lol
true, but if you stumble across one, you can use it. i was more just throwing that out there than giving the guy any real hope of finding one. :)

[Tomisimo]

No problem, i find tooday a tranny, the man said that he has rebuild it. i get it cheep. next on menu is pistons and rods.

[AccordB20A]
