I have been making a few phone calls and reading up on some stuff, and apparently my 2000 civic ex coupe's distributor is one of a kind, all 2000 ex's are different than any other car and only work with each other. I have a B-Series swap in the car right now, but the only thing i need to get it running is a different distributor b/c the B series plug won't connect with mine, 1 too many wires. Do you all suggest replacing the entire engine harness, hot-wiring it so they connect but just have 1 usless wire, or what? What B series distributor would match up with my car? ANY SUGGESTIONS ARE HELPFUL THANKS

I know there are plenty of you all with 2000 Ex's with B-Series swaps..whats your setup, i really just don't want to have to cut anything...let me know what you all think please.

ReDHaTcHyGuy

you need a 99-00 Si engine harness , for some reason honda changed the plugs on the obd2b dizzy's and wiring ... there was just another thread on this

The guy who had the motor before me, had it in his '98 ex coupe and everything hooked up fine...but you think a 99-00 Si Engine Harness will plug up with an 01 B18c5?

btw..what if i wanna go to OBD1 to use a hondata system? what you would reccomend?

ReDHaTcHyGuy

they changed they style of the dizzy plugs after 98.. thats why your haveing trouble.. yea the Si harness will work fine. if you wanna use the hondata u have to get a obd2b-obd1 conversion harness..

yea, ok, well thanks for the info, i'll have to look into this
