going back to VX roots from D15B soch vtec

[Nden]

mims, u'd need the motor, egr -black box mounted to firewall, IM, ecu, and 5-wire 0xygen sensor -$90ish if u look on net. U can use same motor mounts but if its that old i'd recommend some Innovative polyurethane ones the red 60A softest rated $269 ebay. Due to wear your stock ones are shot and you prolly need to replace the 2 torque mounts too(under and to the front). The Vx wire harness ofcourse unless somebody here knows how to modify yours. In fact, I don't think anybody makes polyurethane torque mounts so i may just try using silicone caulk to fill in some new oem ones. Plus the Innovative ones are billet and look nice.

Damn, that's rough dude. Makes me somewhat glad that my Civic looks like a hooptie on the exterior and stripped out on the interior. Nothing worth value other than my rims, scan gauge and catalytic converter.

my cx only has 35,XXX miles on it. So i think I can get away with the same motor mounts thanks for the information

wow nice low miles. Forgot to mention at the top; I changed the piping to 2" from cat up to the new2me magnaflow muffler -thanks ecology $25.
I wonder if it will hamper new goal of 45mpg after I swap a D15Z1 back in ...hope it don't hurt mpg. If so i'll probly go back to the oem 1.75" diamter piping.

oh ya btw, since yours is a 92, it is pre-wired for vtec from the ecu to the engine bay (4 big connectors) near the passenger-side shock tower. You'll also need a control box which on the VX is mounted on the firewall sort of in the middle, the VX IM w/EGR. U won't have to tap or connect so many wires if you get a VX wire-harness. double-check for a 5-wire connector at one end for the wide-band o2 sensor. Not sure if i got all my vacuum hoses connected properly as i'm almost done with my VX re-install. but no CEL showing up anymore.
