d16z6 swap in 92 cx
Ok im gonna be buying a 1995 D16Z6 swap from a del sol si.. I have a 92 CX with the stock 70 hp monster in it now. The d16z6 swap is just Engine and Trans. No wiring harness or ECU. I can find a P28 ECU here locally but the wiring harness is another story. I really dont want to have to pay 100-150 for a harness. So if I reuse my CX Harness Exactly what wires will I have to add to make it work?? Also what sensors does the D16 have that the CX doesnt??I know the O2 sensor on the D16 is 4 Wire compared to my 1 Wire so what do I do there?? And will all of my radiator/heater hoses ETC. work.. Im just trying to figure out if there will be any hidden costs in doing this swap. I know someone has to be able to answer a few of these questions for me.... THANKS

Re: d16z6 swap in 92 cx (BauleyCivic)
I WONT have the D16z6 harness. So im trying to see how to use my CX harness on the D16Z6.. Its a 92 so it is wired for vtec from the ECU to the shock towers.. I just need info on how to hook up the VTEC and what to do about the 4 wire O2 sensor since mine is 1 Wire...And if the d16z6 has any other sensors that my CX doesnat have?? I have searched and searched and i didnt find the info I need so that is why I Posted this.....

Your CX harness might work just fine, cause 92 Civics are wired to VTEC. The O2 wire is the only thing to get out of the way as far as I know.
I dropped a 92 SI in my old 93 CX.....went straight in, just had to wire VTEC.
BTW, with your 1.5 tranny you're gonna have some loooooong gears! 65/70mph in 1st if ya wanna try. You won't even need 5th until 65/70mph when on the freeway.

Re: d16z6 swap in 92 cx (D16Z6racing)
you wont need 4th gear either...cruise in third.......Your chassis is wired for vtec (its a 92 thing) So just get a ex/si harness it'll be easier and look cleaner. Plug and play
