d16a1 integra motor in 85 crx

[Spider228]

i have an 85 crx and an 89 integra the body on the integra is wrecked but the body on the crx is in awsome condition. i want to put the integra motor in the crx. I know its a direct bolt in but the crx is an automatic and the integra is a 5spd. Will the shift linkage and clutch pedal from the integra swap right over into the crx.

Might have a problem with the shifter stabilizer, but everything else will swap right over. Let us know how it goes!

it'll swap perfect the civic/crx's are identical bodies even with auto or manual. and there all interchangeable with the integras. you should have about 5 hours worth of work on your hands if your speedy under the hood. if you need anything let me know i'm a 1st/2nd/3rd gen expert. (self proclaimed expert) i have owned pretty much every honda including cvcc, crx, civic, and a first edition crx (1983 civic 1500 s). my email is breezynutz1458@aim.com email about it.

make sure you aline the shifter and casing before you hook up the shift cables and everthing. and make sure to replace the push pin. because when you swap a motor it can be hectic on the pins.
