i need to renew my tags to 2008 and i only have 2 months to do it... and i have a 99 obd-2 gsr motor in my 90 crx... and i was wondering if i should take it to smog station and just pass the test or if i should take it to the state referee and make it pass? what are the advantage of getting my car bar'd? oh and one more thing how do you wire the evap soleniod valve from my firewall to the intake manifold? and you guys think that the ref will say something because im running the obd-2 gsr motor as obd-1? please help me out here thanks......

Smog station will not smog it unless you have Bar'd a swap...

ALLMOTOR CRX

i know someone who will.. hook ups...but i dont know if i should referee it or just smog it?

EF_LSVtec

you may have hook ups, but if you get pulled over and chp decides to pop your hood, then what??? Get it smogged first to buy you time, but ideally, you need to get your car BAR'd if you want to stay "legal".

yes i am thinking about getting it bar'd but i dont know if i have run as obd-2 or will it pass running as obd-1 my motor is orginaly 99 motor obd-2.. so going back to my questions.....

EF_LSVtec

if motor came from donor car that's obd2, then you should wire it obd2.

ALLMOTOR CRX

wire it as obd-2 more money dont you think? plus i dont think they make obd-0 to obd-1 to obd-2 hoppers do they? and wouldnt it be more difficult to pass as obd-2?

thesmogman

OBDII motor = OBDII ecu. They will check.

Have everything hooked up correctly or you will fail. Yes they check.

If your hook-up passes you and you get pulled over and sent to the ref the bar might look into your last smog and BUSTED.

Please do it right and then you don't have to worry about it again.

The vacuum lines go from IM to evap sol to vent on top. Then there is a bigger line that goes from the cannister to the TB. Also there is another line from the gas tank to the cannister.
Basically the evap sol uses vac to open the cannister vent so it will purge.

ALLMOTOR CRX

so you think that they will say fail obd-2 motor has to be running as obd-2 fail.....damn but who makes the hopers from obd-0 to obd-2a.. you dont think i will get check in engine lights? i mean i dont right now never have.. But they say that obd-2 ecu read everything for example crank angle sensor which i dont have hook up and i already got rid of the crank sensor? also the vacum tank obd-2 are diffrent they are also hook up to a pigtail which i dont have aswell... i think i just might smog it if i get pulled over i wont pop the hood car is not under my name. it is under my dads name. i dont have permission to pop the hood....not my ride!!

ALLMOTOR CRX

oh i know who makes the hopper rywire.com but for 165 bucks.. and i need a second o2 sensor.. how would i wired that?

thesmogman

Put the O2 Just like it is a 99 obdII. It might be in the cat or after it.

All OBDII cars are required to have a DLC connector (Diagnostic link connector) You need this working with the CEL (Check engine light)

And if you are driving and get asked to pop the hood and you don't. Well let's just say I hope you have your walking shoes on.

ALLMOTOR CRX

is this the same as the obd-1.. becauase i do have one and if something is wrong with and check engine light comes up.. i am able to check for codes and my check engine light does blink.. so is that it the dlc?

ALLMOTOR CRX

hey ef_lsvtec i saw that you passed state ref with a 97ls motor which is obd-2 did you run it as obd-2 or obd-1? did you had to connect the second o2 sensor?

thesmogman

OBDI does not have the DLC connector.

ALLMOTOR CRX

if i decide to take it to state ref im going in there as obd-1 and hopefully they dont check my block ill just tell them its a 95 gsr motor.. i mean gettin it to pass as obd-2 is going to be a bi tch!!!!!!!! probably have to be a wiring expert... and im not... if i get it ref im not going to no college im going to a gas station where they dont know much about hondas/acuras..

Wasn't it a 94? Anyway, like I said, all I did was upgrade my o2 sensor to a 4 wire and played dumb. I told em I took my car to a shop and they did all the work. I pretended to be surprised when he told me that I had a 94 LS (B18b) and I said, I paid for a B18A
But this was 5 years ago...If it helps, I went to the Fremont ref station on Mission blvd...inside an Automotive school (i forgot what its called) sorry.

baring takes time man, if you don't have it I suggest you go back to the D16. I guess I am a little jaded though, took me 5 times to get that freakin sticker! 2 of which I couldn't pass smog, but still....

ALLMOTOR CRX

you guys think i will pass as a 95 gsr motor? if i just tell them its a 95?

EF_LSVtec

I'd say go for it.

ALLMOTOR CRX

thanks for the support... so i have to be running a 95 gsr ecu aswell right? oh and do i need a pcv valve, connected and a evap purge seloniod valve, because right now i dont have them hooked up.... oh and one more thing if i dont pass will my car get reported or could i just go back to normal like i never took it to a ref station?

EF_LSVtec

yeah, if you dont pass, just keep trying...you wont be put in a list of "illegal swappers" in the country

B_CRUZ!

put a 95 GS-R intake manifold on it. <FONT SIZE="1">I have one for sale if you need it. PM me.</FONT>

Thats the only visual difference of the obd2 GS-R motors. Just like EF_LSvtec said, act surprised if they mention anything to you about the year. I reff'd 2 of my set ups 5 years ago as well. The first one was a obd1 USDM GS-R set up and the second one was for a obd2 JDM GS-R set up.

Everything has to be hooked up properly, vacuum lines, sensors and you can't have a CEL on. Also use a stock p72 ecu... no chipped bullshit.

ALLMOTOR CRX

yeah i wasw going to put the obd-2 gsr manifold but my brother has an obd-1 gsr motor ill will tell him to let me borrow it... so you think i will pass if they ask ill will just tell them its a 95 gsr motor right? i have some dc 4-1 headers they are for a gsr motor should i leave them on or change them? oh and should i buy anther o2 sensor a brand new one for better readings? i am going to buy a new cat right now i have a test pipe.... here check out my motor...
