I have a d and want a b

By Coplies
- Fri Oct 16, 2009 6:32 pm #151251 So i have a stock d15 in my eg8 and i am looking to do a swap when i get the money. I want to get a b18c and i have a few questions. First, do the b series engines support a/c, cruise control and power steering? Second, would a 6 speed tranny fit/ would it be worth doing? I was wondering if the 6 speed would allow me to get better mileage or if it just makes the gears closer together. Last, does anyone have a link to a good diy on a b swap?

Thanks guys

- Wed Oct 28, 2009 7:14 pm #153377 ya you need axels, half shaft, shift linkage, throttle cable( when i did my b18b swap i was old to use my stock cable witch was way to short so i had to use the teg one),ecu, motor mounts, harness. if you get the full swap online then it should come with every thing you will need...
