Installation notes

Yes — the J32A3 V6 and 6-speed manual from a 2004-2008 TL (UA6) fits a 1992-1995 Civic (EG) with a J-series swap mount kit, engine bay modifications and V6-specific wiring, axles and cooling. Hasport sells EGJ1 and EGJ2 kits for J-series swaps into the 92-95 Civic, del Sol and 94-01 Integra. Innovative sells a matching EG/DC J-series manual-transmission kit. The J32A3 is a 3.2 L SOHC VTEC V6 rated at 270 hp (2004-2005) or 258 hp under the later SAE method (2006-2008).

Required modifications

Engine mounts: Hasport EGJ1 (fixed height) or EGJ2 (dual height, lets the very tall J-series sit under the hood), or Innovative 80150/80151 (with or without an alternator relocator). Hasport says engine bay modifications are needed before the kit becomes bolt-in. Transmission: Hybrid Racing's listing pairs the Hasport kits with the 6-speed manuals from the 03-07 Accord V6 and 04-08 TL, and notes some engine/transmission combinations need modification. Also wiring/ECU, axles, shifter, cooling, fuel and exhaust sized for a V6.

Caution

Important caveats

  • Wikipedia notes the 2007-2008 TL J32A3 has a revised bellhousing; confirm engine and transmission years match.
  • Hasport says engine bay modifications are required before the J-series kit bolts in.
  • The J-series is very tall; Hasport's EGJ2 dual-height kit exists to fit it under the hood.
  • The 2007-2008 TL Type-S used the 3.5 L J35A8, not the J32A3.
