93gsrhatchbrid

i'm a new member and am having a bit of trouble with my gsr swap. i was hoping somebody here could help me out.
i got a 96gsr engine for my 93 civic hatch. the problem i've run into is with the wiring harness and ecu.

to start things off, neither the ECU nor the wiring harness came with the engine as was originally agreed upon. however, i did not make it to the shop to see the engine unwrapped until two months later. it was too late for me to do anything about it. so i ordered a 96 gsr ecu on ebay...got it super cheap too. but, the mechanic told me that since he was using my old wiring harness which is obd1 that i needed to get another ecu that was obd1. i've not been able to find a reasonably priced ecu thus far. if anyone has a 94-95 gsr ecu please email me @ jonheartroy@gmail.com.

my questions is, "could i just as easily get a gsr wiring harness and avoid having to buy a new ecu?" i've been without my car for almost a month now and i need it back pronto. please let me know whatever helpful info you can. thanks.

The engine harness can be bought but will cost you more and being OBD2, it also throws a CEL a lot easier and is just generally more of a PITA. I would search here and fleabay for a P28 ecu out of a civic EX and just have it chipped to run a DOHC B18C. It will be a lot less headache and probably cheaper than a wiring harness as well. OBD1 is the way to go for sure.
