Would this not be a bit cheaper then the b16a2. Why don't more people do it?

Well an OBDI B16A is a B16A3 I think. I guess it would be cheaper depending on mileage, but you'd have to mess with wiring.

Isnt he talking about the cable clutch?
The difference is that the OBD1 b16 is cable
and the OBD2 is hydrolic like yours.
It is cheaper because most people want to keep
it similar to what they already have.

Re: Got a question.. (d15dude)

i believe the main question is why is it cheaper, and its cause the cable and hydro differences. you'd end up spendin almost the same amount to do the conversion anyways.
