That car was my pride and joy! 1990 generation 2 integra. 5 speed lowered 2.5" on skunk2 lowering springs with skunk2 upper control arms on gold Azul rims. Flowmaster axle back exhaust with the series 40 muffler. 6k HIDs. AEM short ram intake. It's got a 1.8l DOHC on a body that's lighter than any civic or third gen integra with an engine that's the same size or bigger.
Unfortunately, my family can't afford insurance on two cars. I'm going to college so I need a car that can carry a good amount of crap around sooooo the POS cherokee takes the place of my integra

Does the 4.0 bolt right in?
I have the same XJ '85 with the carbed 2.8 V6.
Or is there a more cost-effective and easier swap?
Maybe even the 2.5 4 banger.
Im looking at making it my daily driver.
Any help would be appreciated.
