Installation notes

Yes — the J32A2 V6 from a 2001-2003 Acura CL Type-S (YA4) fits a 1994-2001 Acura Integra (DC2) using the EG-chassis J-swap kits (Hasport EGJ1/EGJ2 or Innovative Mounts 80150/80151) plus J-swap axles. The DC2 Integra and EG Civic share the front subframe layout these kits are built around, so Hasport and Innovative list one kit for both. Innovative's kit includes an alternator relocator because accessory clearance is the main packaging problem. Expect the same wiring, cooling and exhaust fabrication as an EG J-swap.

Required modifications

Swap mounts: the same kits as the EG Civic — Hasport EGJ1 or EGJ2 (both listed for 94-01 Integra) or Innovative Mounts 80150 (with alternator relocator) / 80151 (without), which Innovative lists for the 94-01 Integra DC2 with a manual transmission. Axles: Hasport HP-EGJ1AX, listed for 92-00 Civic / 94-01 Integra J-swaps using the J-series automatic intermediate shaft. Hasport states some engine bay modification is required. Also needed: manual J-series transmission, engine harness and ECU solution, custom cooling, exhaust, and A/C delete or custom lines; protect the low J-series oil pan (Hasport DJ-SKID skid plate, which can also carry a relocated 92-00 Civic D-series alternator).

Caution

Important caveats

  • Hasport notes that some engine bay modification is required before the EGJ kits bolt in.
  • Only the EGJ2 kit is described by Hasport as fitting the J-series under the hood.
  • Hasport's matching J-swap axles assume the J-series automatic intermediate shaft; ask Hasport if using a manual intermediate shaft.
  • Innovative lists its kit for the J32; J35/J37 builds should confirm fitment with the vendor.
