Default 94 1.5L into 96 DX

OK, done the search, cant find what i need. I blew the stock 96 dx motor a couple months ago and I got a very good deal on a 94 dx motor. Can I use my stock ECU? Tranny? Wiring harness? Anything else I might need to know?

If you live somewhere that you have to get the car inspected, I would just get another 96 motor, as you can't pass the new OBD testing with the OBD1 motor/ecu. If you do plan on doing this, you need the motor and ecu, and also a OBD2 to OBD1 conversion harness.

ok, so youre saying that the d15b will plug into my 96 dx (not sure of the nomenclature) ecu? if so, will it run fine? i live in washington and ive never heard of anyone getting their vehicle inspected that thoroughly, so if all it is is a check mark on some inspectors notebook, i think i can live with that.

To the original poster, why not just pick up another 96 dx motor?? You could get a longblock for less than 300 bucks I'm sure. It will cause you less headaches and end up costing you less to just do that.

Hell post it up here...people will sometimes just give away the D series blocks once they swap.
