98JDM_Type_R

Well I tried putting my 95 B18C swap into my 00cx yesterday, and ran into a whole load of different problems. My biggest problem is the distributor. I did a search but didn't find any that could help me.
I tried to repin my distributor, to find out that OBD2b D16y7 clip is no different than an OBD1 clip. So, I had to rewire my harness to fit the distributor. To my surprise the colors are not the same between the 00si harness and the OBD1 distributor harness.

Does anyone have the color codes for the distributor and the harness?

Also, for the extra plug on the distributor that has two wires. The SI harness only has the Black/Yellow wire, and does not have the Blue. Does this affect it in any way?

For those of you trying this swap, you will also need a GSR fuel line (not fuel rail) and throttle cable.

I did a search, but they all pretty much say the same thing.

Ex:
Just remove the two wires from the bottom and repin them.... That may be true for OBD2 distributors to OBD1, but I have OBD1 distributor to OBD2.

Another Ex:
They are all the same color... No they are not. The OBD2 harness has a lot of solid color variations while the OBD1 distributor has more multi-color variations.

why not just get the gsr harness and be done with? i have an extra gsr harness laying around if you want to buy it.

GSR harness won't fit into an EK.

that's not the only problem you will run into. you will need alternator, fuel injectors.

Injectors are covered... Just use the stock one off your SOHC and the alternator. You can even open up the alternator and switch out the regulators so that it will plug in.

There is another thing that you will need: GSR Throttle Cable

By the way, I already fixed the problem w/ the distributor. Now, I'm on the even more problems. I should've gotten a B16a2 outta a SI to save from the headaches.
