you're going to have just as much trouble with the 1.5 instead of getting a 1.6!
they looked at my ecu went i went to the ref to make sure it was for the same yr car and same motor.
good luck!

Re: cali smog/ pulling new motor/ putting back a mutt need help (wid326)
So is there any way to get away with the smog check in Cali? I have a JDM ITR motor and kinda worry when smog comes (altho not until 2 yrs from now) , but I still worry about it a lot. Anyone knows any way to get away with it?

1. You can't pass a JDM motor unless you put all US spec emission items on the motor.
2. without a BAR sticker for the d15, you wont pass. you need to have a d16.
3. ECU must be USDM and must match motor year.
am i leaving anything out? you could always pay someone off for your smog, if you know people.

Re: cali smog/ pulling new motor/ putting back a mutt need help (deviant1)
my B16A won't pass so was looking to get quick fix to my problem, so was thinking of buying a 97 lx motor 96 coupe wiring harness and i still have my stock ecu for my 98 hatch dx. hooking it all up and going to go smog it but if that is not going to then how else do you think i may try without rebuying all my orginal ****.
thanks for the help so far
