Add to that a h2o pump, thermostat/gasket, new timing belt and a cap/rotor. Once it is running you can determine if it needs other things. Pretty much, you can count on a new ignitor if the tach jumps and some new o2 sensors for good measure. Check the motor over very carefully for broken sensors and whatnot on the back side. Now would be a VERY good time to do an intake manifold swap as they are a royal PITA once the motor is in the car. I know from first hand experiance.

 

check the cam seal too after you get it in running, i know both my b16's had bad cam seals and leaked some oil.

and i have a pr3 ecu that would be a perfect canidate to chip if youre interested at all

 

you may want to bend the little sectionof the rear cross member down. the rear tranny mount will hit it and make your car viberate like hell. i had to pull my engine out twice to figure it out.

 

SHIT u have a mount kit nevermind

 

Hahah.

 

Thanks everyone, I will prob get a top and bottom gasket kit also just for maintenance.

I might want that pr3 later since i got (screwde) with the pow

 

32 mm for the axles change your brake pads more power needs new brakes while your doing all this be careful of the tps sensor not to stretch the wires while your pulling the old motor and installing the new one. good advice on checking the sensors completely hook up your harness while the motor is out so all you have to do is the top connections. str makes a good cam seal. if the motor has not been rebuilt or anything all you should have to do is change it once its in and run it. good luck have fun and take your time if you get frustrated walk away and take a break dont rush it. where are you located at get someones number that is close to you in case you need some last minute help.

why did you make a sub harness for? the o2 sensor 4 wire?
