well its illeagle to put a motor in thats a lower odb then what your car is now. EX: putting in a odb1 motor in a odb2 car. but it shouldnt be hard all u need to do is use a jumper harness i believe. depends on where you live. In NJ cops arent to bad with that stuff, but Cali on the other hand.. i wouldnt do it from what iv read

You will need to either build a hybrid distributor or buy a jumper harness, you will need to preform the CKF fix http://technet.ff-squad.com/ckftrick.htm you will also need to pick an IAT sensor, the D16Z6 has it in the intake manifold, the D16Y8 has it located in the intake piping, either will work fine. The biggest thing i'll warn you about is that supposedly due to timing differences between the D16Y8 and the D16Z6 it will never really run optimally on the Y8 ECU, i'm just not sure how far from optimal it is.

i need to know this too! i already have a d16z6 block/ head/ intake mani./ header in my garage, next to my ek with a blown stock motor (obd2)! so pretty much i have to do this swap! i know i need a vtec ecu n harness n dizzy, but which ones should i use? would 99 ex vtec work? what else would i need?

why not just get the wire harness and convert it to obd-1? they aren't that expensive plus you get alot more tuning capabilities

I was going to use the y8 intake manifold with the y8 injectors, throttle body,ect. bascialy use all the y8 **** on the z6 block and head

so if i get the obd1 harness, what else what i need to make my car run reliable with vtec?

Stock P28 ECU. Only thing is if you really are in california you'll never pass emissions. Both because of the ECU and the engine itself.

I have the jumper already just not the p28. my girl has a chipped one in her 95 Ex and when i tryed to test out the jumper with her ecu i blew the y8, (spun bearing) i think. My y8 didn't like the 8000rpm to much

'96typeR

im not worried about passing smog or anything right now, i just need my hatch going its my only car! but will i be able to use my stock distributer or do i need to change anything else?

beninitEk96

what if i just use the z6 block with the y8 head would that make thing eazier

D16SiHatch

that it would

speedooo

the p08 head has a different bolt pattern for the dist, all the sohc dists bolt up except the z6/obd1 d15b. you dont need to use the y8 head, just the y8 intake manifold. the the z6 block doesnt have a crank angle sensor

D16SiHatch

If he wants to use a p28 then he'll be fine. but if he wants to use the z6 head and the obd2 ecu i dont know what obd2 diz would bolt up to the z6. sounds like none will. not to mention the p2p ecu looks for the ckf. which you either have to swap the y8 oil pump assembly over to the z6, or do the ckf bypass.

ok go to http://www.streetlightz.com/OBD2B-to...mper-P128.aspx they have a few for sale for 65 bucks. good deal. hope this helps!!!!!

i put a d16z6 in my 96 everything hooks up but 2 plugs can anybody tell me is that how it pose 2 be i did everything y8 intake on z6 block and use the obd2 harness just waitn on the dizzy harness for obd 1 dizzy 2 obd2 harness.and yes i will run a p28 and have a jumper harness
