forsure an OBD2 to OBD1 harness at least. I don't know if you can wire up an OBD1 wire harness to an OBD2 car though..

the integra harness is a 2-piece harness and the 96+ civics are one-piece. 92-95 civic and 94-01 integra use the same harness. NOT 96-00 civics. so use the civic one. the integra one will NOT work. use the integra's ECU too. use the integras axles. use the integras shift linkage. use the integra's front seats and rear disc brakes too lol.

Not without some modification. The harness wont work unless you use pretty much all of the wiring out of the integra, you'd have to spice the wires going back to the tailights. Its a very involved job, you'll basically have to strip the interiors of both cars down to nothing, dash, steering column, pedals, heater core, etc all have to be removed. Just use the civic harness and modify it, much less work.

The integras harness plugs into another harness, which then goes to the ecu. The civic harness goes from the engine straight to the ecu.

You will need the post mount from a 99-00 Civic Si. If you cant find one, get one from Honda. You will also need the rear T bracket from a 99-00 Civic Si.

From the integra, use the Engine, Trans, axles, shift linkage, halfshaft.

As for the harness, use the one from your civic. You MAY have to leghthen one or two plus and you may have an extra one as well. But I could be wrong about that.

What year is the integra? Due to being in Canada things could be different as well with the wiring...

Hope this helps some.

No ELD over here so the alternator plug is different (3 pin oval instead of 4 pin square for OBD2) other than that its the same.

okay, u misread all the things i said. i said u cant use the integra harness in the 1998 civic u have. (well, without heavy modification etc. would be completely unnecessary x1000)

again try www.google.com

so go ahead and try to perform the swap with the integra harness and get back to me when u have completed it, if u do indeed complete it...

so you have the b16 tranny and the ecu and the wiring harness for a b18 I think the harness matters I could be wrong but you will also need new axles the spindol on the drivers side is a lil bit longer than yours
