Now the shitty thing about the spindles are too small so the b series axels do not go in but some 1990-93 integra spindles will fix that and give him a larger brake upgrade

okay, sorry that i haven't updated this thread but heres the updates of my hatch, once the swap was in all we was waiting for was the wiring harness, being made by 1988rt, also the jumper harness to convert my wires from od0 - od1, that took weeks to come in the mail. so the wire harness was finshished, looks OEM :OD and got everything plugged in, also the jumper harness. the ECU we used was a chipped p05, running a base map on LS vtec, with two step on 3500 and check light on 8000 and rev limiter on 8500. once we got it started we notice there was a couple problems. there was a major radiator fluid leak coming somewhere from the motor and a seal from the transmissions had also an oil leak. we got that taken cared of, ordered a new seal from honda and replaced the gasket for the water pump and took care of the leaks. the day i was going to take it home, we took it for a test drive and notice that once we step on the gas and go pass 3000 rpm's the car would bog out, we thought it could be the speed sensor that was in my transmission due to the fact it wasn't working on my gauge cluster. the next we did the same test and realized it was the fuel pump, we still used the oem dx fuel pump and what we needed to used was a 91-93 integra fuel pump. my stock one was not putting enough fuel to the motor so when it reached an high rpm the fuel would cut out, i'm still debating if i should just go the the pull n part yard and get one there or ordered a new one witch cost me $140, ill let you guys know once i decided
