What T Bracket do I need???
I have been having one hell of time finding the correct T Bracket for my swap. I've got a 94 civic coupe that I put a B18 A1 LS swap in. I have bought several T bracket's based on what people are telling me I need and after 5 still do not have the right one. So please if anyone has done this swap in a OBD1 car what T bracket did you end up having to use. It is a GSR hydro tranny if that helps any. Thanx. I've been told a 94-00 integra 5 spd t bracket would work and a 99-00 SI B16 one would work as well and I've been told that is wrong 2. I bought a so called 99-00 SI bracket and the bottom bolt holes line up as well as where it goes around the tranny but it's like 3 inches to short at the firewall. The 94-00 integra one I believe is an automatic cuz the bolt holes are to short. The measurements I came up with roughly are 2 1/2 inches center to center on the bottom holes and around 9 5/8 center to center on the top holes.

if the integra one isnt working try one out of a del sol vtec....the one that came with a b16.
a quick google search however told me that the 94-00 integra bracket should work no problems:/

Re: What T Bracket do I need???
yea I saw that as well in about 3 different forums and bought one and it won't fit. That's why I was trying to find someone that has done this in this car so I can be certain. These things are 70 dollars a pop and like I said I've got 5 now and none will work.

Yes you need the bracket off of a dc2 integra. The 1st image I found on google shows your problem of being too far from the firewall.

Re: What T Bracket do I need???
once again I have not found the correct T bracket. I just bought another gsr 94-00 t bracket and the bolt holes don't line up not far enough apart and it's 2 short. I've got 3 now and 2 99-00 si b16 t brackets. the bolt holes do line up but it's way to short. I put a B18a1 motor in the car with a GSR tranny not clear on what year the tranny is out of. However the bottom bolt holes are 2 1/2 inches center to center and all the 94-00 integra t brackets are 2 1/4 center to center. Please someone point me in the right direction???

You probably need the t bracket out of a da integra considering that's what your motor came out of
Edit: scratch that, I doubt the da bracket would work. The 94-01 integra bracket one should work just fine considering the subframe of an eg and dc are almost identical

yea I have heard that it should work fine but it does not. The bolt holes on the bottom of the bracket don't line up with the transmission, and the it won't reach the mount on the firewall.
