ok im new here and been picking up things here and there and now im just getting pissed off...

ok short story i bought a 94 integra it has a b18a1 in it and a cable trans..
i just bought a obd-1 harness cause the one in the car is hacked to hell but now i just figured out that its a obd-0 harness should i buy a new obd-0 harness and attempt this wiring hack job or should i sell the 2 b18a1 motors i have here now and just set it all up like a b18b1? and im new to this all but im pretty sure that the dist.is not suuposed to be wired all together is it? all the wires are stripped and taped together not even taped apart from each other..i know some of these are stupid questions and im a complete noob but i cant figure this out and im going crazy...i been trying to figure it out on my own but now i just want to set it on fire ..also whoever did the wire job messed up the lights brakes and blinkers...i dont think this car was a good idea for my first honda/acura attempt..

so anyone out there that can help me?
i just want the car to run and move
pics would help!
the vaccum lines are all messed up on this thing to...
or if theres anyone in the WI area that could help me get it going would be awsome!

 

A 94 integra should not come with a b18a1 and cable trans. Instead of getting a b18b, save yourself the time of swapping the motor and use the b18a and trans. I beleive the previous guy used a obd0 harness, but converted it to obd1. Since you have the engine harness, use that one, and be sure to get the obd1 components like the dizzy, o2 sensor, and etc... You might want to change out he intake manifold to the b18a if it's obd0. Can you post some pics of the hack job?

 

ok i got a bunch of pics for ya..see the problem is the white harnesses go into the car and my obd-1 harness is grey so everything in the car is wrong so im taking it i need all that wiring to?
also that vaccum thing on top of the tranny is cracked and have no idea where to hook it up wheres that supposed to go?

this harness runs into the passenger side...

this one runs into the driver side and up along the fire wall...

this is under the driver dash..

this is my harness and the white one runs into the the car next to it..

this is the mess thats up front behind the driver headlight..

this is the computer thats in it...

heres where the distributor is wired up..with the harness...

heres the cracked tranny thing...

heres the fuse box thats under the hood..


any help with this will be appreciated..thanks

 

Its a mess thats for sure! the guy converted everything back to obd0 (that dumbass). You will need to convert everything back to obd1. From what it seems like he yanked the whole engine bay-to-ecu wiring harness from an obd0 and used that. You would have to get the whole engine bay-to-ecu harness, 94+ integra LS distributor, obd1 fuse box, and obd1 LS ecu, if you want to go back to obd1. The cracked vacuum thing is a cable transmission VSS. I dont think it will work with yours cuz the cluster gauge uses an electronic vss instead of a cable one. You could try to used the obd0 wire harness, but it going to require alot or rewiring from the looks of the pictures.

 

I have never seen any one go form obd1 to obd0. There is no point in it. If ya want it to be right you would have to swap in a b18b obd1 and change the engine harness wit another obd1. If ya need a good book on the wire harness call the nearest acura dealership and they should let you borrow one. Trust me it saves alot of time

 

Thats junk you need to pull it all and get a whole new harness for the car or scrap it one

 

i have a 94 service manual i can give you for free, and i have a couple harnesses for sale if you need them, just shoot me a pm and i can send you all the info.
