ok, the old motor is out and we have started using the wireing harness that came with the '97 coupe. one problem we have run into is the crank angle sensor has a 2 wire plug on the B16 and the OBD2 wireing harness we're using has a 3 wire plug. im sure if i splice 2 of the 3 wires together it will work i just dont know which 2 to use because the colors dont match up. by the way, we are going with the jdm type R ecu. any other wireing problems you guys can think of feel free to enlighten me on because this thing is goin in tomorrow around noon. thanks.

if there is a shield over the wires cut it off and then match up the 2 wires that match in color and tape off the 3rd. that is how i did the wiring on my 00 B16 swap into 96 ek.

what wiring harness are you using? a EX wiring harness should plug right up

two of the colors are the same they just dont have a stripe on them on the '00 Si crank angle sensor. so ill match thoes two up. we are using the '96 wireing harness for the swap, the B16 harness was too butchered thanks for the help guys.

You cant use a 99-00 Harness in a 96-98 civic anyway....
