Forgot to add, the car must be able to pass emissions.

You 2 options.
(1) 96-98 B-series VTEC ecu (ITR ecu comes to mind, kind of a rare find tho)
or
(2) 99-00 Si ecu which you will need an OBD2a to OBD2b jumper harness adapter in order to use.

You should be able to pass with either ecu but you will need to performe the CKF trick if your LS block has an OBD1 oil pump which does not have a CKF sensor.

Hey Katman, when I ran my '97 F20b with a 93 civic si harness, what options do you have for controlling a 3 wire engine IAC with a OBD1 2 wire harness? Sorry for the kinda off topic inquiry

The 99-00 si ecu looks for a second o2 and a knock sensor right? Cuz I have a chipped p28 right now that has them both disabled. If so I'll have to install them both.

..as does a 96-98 b-series vtec ecu! So, yes you will have to wire in a 2nd 02 and the knock.

hmm...good question.
I don't have an answer for you as I am not an F20/H-series guru.

Can you swap a 2-wire IACV over to the F20B, maybe?

You can't. The bolt pattern of a obd1 h22 IAC is completely different. I guess your only option would be to run a h22 I/M

thats right, but then the F20B ecu would still be looking for a 3-wire IACV, no?

I was running a chipped p28 so it would be controlling a 2 wire sensor, just like the d16z6 had

okay, i have read a plethora of info and my brain is hurting lol, i have some quick questions! i have a 1998 hb with a d16y7, and i am planning on swapping in a b16a obd1 w/ a p28 (hondata) my question is on wiring vtec, what side of the jumper harness do we add the wires, on the obd1 side (pins VTEC Pressure Switch pin D6, VEC Solenoid pin A4 ) or on the obd2a side (pins VTEC Pressure Switch pin C15, VTEC Solenoid pin A8 ) thanks

Oh ok, I was under the impression you were using the F20B ecu. good luck then

You add wires to the OBD2a side.
The OBD2-1 jumper harness will already have the VTEC, knock, etc, taken care of, but if the connection isn't met on the OBD2a side you won't have working VTEC, knock, etc.

Hello, Im brand new here(first post). Kat... wow man, just wow!! Quick question for you. Or any other gurus...

I have a 00 Civic Hatch. My son blew the engine(n00b). I have a 96-97 EX motor/ecu.
Will the wiring for this work at all?

If so, I know I have to do the 3-wire to 2-wire IACV and the VTEC wiring. Would there be anything else?

If not, what would you suggest?

Appreciate your help.

welcome..

You'll have to reuse your 00 engine harness on the 96-97 (OBD2a) EX D16Y8 engine. If the 96-97 Y8 engine comes with an engine harness, you will have to swap the dizzy plug over to your 00 harness. 99-00 civics use a smaller dizzy plug.

To use the OBD2a EX ecu, you'll need to purchase an OBD2b-OBD2a ecu jumper harness adapter (which i sell ).

one more question.

If I got ahold of an obd2b ecu would that cause any other problems?

00 Civic, 00 wiring harness, 99-00 ecu, 97 D16Y8 is what I am looking at.

I would just ask you all this in IM's but I guess I cant IM right now.

no it wouldn't; it would actually save you $$ on having to buy OBD2b-&gt;OBD2a jumper harness converter. OBD2a and OBD2b ecu's are compatible with all OBD1, 2a/b distributors, injectors, alternators, sensors etc.

Apologies, I saw on your OP that you were in the works with Rywire and didnt realize you didn't go that route.


Appreciate the help.

Hi Katman,

running into some problems...

1. the hard clutch line from my 96 civic does not fit the line coming from the GSR clutch slave cylinder...any ideas?

2. for the fuel line from fuel filter to the GSR fuel rail, do I have to use the GSR fuel line? It seem slike the D series will not work.
