I have a 1998 Honda Civic Dx (D16Y7) and just got a d16z6 complete with everything but the ECU. Im getting the ECU for it and the skunk2 OBD2 to OBD1 conversion harness. The only problem im having is the wiring harness on that engine wont plug into the plug by the fender wall going to the ECU. There is only one plug on the stock wiring but my enigine harness on the D16Z6 has 2 on each side. If there is a conversion available for this or if anyone could let me no how to accomplish this i would really appreciate it.

 

rule of swap

always use the harness off the stock car to run the engine

just use the harness off the engine u bought to obtain any xtra plugs u might need

 

If i do that then how will i do the vtec part. My engine was not a vtec and dont no what to do about that

you my friend need to take your car and drop it off... pay someone and pick it up running!!!

 

does ohio have the same rules as cali for the engine swap / obd rule? just wondering because if that would never pass smog requirements since your going from obd2 &gt; obd1...but if it's a race car who cares

 

yea ohio does have the same laws as cali. I cant bring it in anywhere because noone will do it because of that law
i jus need to no what i have to do to make the vtec work

 

use your wireharness and do alot of research on here...

go to hybrid-honda.com they ahve alot of stuff there and cspeedracing

alot of how to stuff... basicly what you have to do is...

just wire the vtec stuff up yourself

 

I need to no if you can help me with engine wiring diagrams for the d16z6 and the d16y7. If you could help me out with this i would really appreciate it.

 

first off migrate over to the hybrid section....

well yes and no

supposely u need to have an engine that is same year or newer than ur car

but here on ohio , on inspections and e checks they dont check that ****
all they do is pull the car on rollers, check the vin number...... and pay ur $19

they dont check the emision hardware and or check all the codes and crrap... to many people 96+ run OBD1

as far as the harness question... u take the VTEC plugs off the vtec harness and add it to ur exhisting harness
