Obd2 dizzy to obd1
Hey guys i have a 1992 civic hatch and i just bought a 1997 gsr swap and its going to be my first swap, so the whole motor is obd2 and the guy that sold it to me gave me a obd1 ecu, but here is my question i have researched and got answers that i would need a obd1 dizzy and injectors? But i found this http://msdignition.com/Products/Acce...I_to_OBDI.aspx would this work and be able to complete the swap with this instead of by a new dizzy? And if i can use this is this all i would need? Thanks

What kind of harness are you running...I have a gsr obd2 swap in my 92 eg and I'm running an obd2 harness and dizzy w obd1 gsr ecu w no prob the only thing I really had to do was run a tach wire from dizzy to the driver side body harness

save yourself a ton of time and wiring by getting an obd2 integra engine harness

Re: Obd2 dizzy to obd1
did you read over the link i posted? it pretty much explains exactly what you need to do to put an obd2 engine in your obd1 car. including why you should use an obd2 integra engine wiring harness

Re: Obd2 dizzy to obd1
I Read it but it doesnt talk about anything of getting a obd1 dizzy for the gsr motor so i wont need to get one? Because im very confused because i googled everuthing before i asked the question and when i googled about this i got many information that i need to get obd1 dizzy injectors and alternator

^^^beat me to it
with the obd2 integra harness you do not need to convert anything on the engine to obd1. the harness will plug right up to the dizzy, alt, etc. while still being plug and play with your obd1 chassis harness

Re: Obd2 dizzy to obd1
Okay thanks guys and i was wondering about the radiator would i use the one that it has in the car already or the one from the gsr the guy gave that to me also and would i lose A/C? The gsr motor has the A/C compressor

Re: Obd2 dizzy to obd1
As for the A/C use a '94 - '95 Del Sol VTEC A/C bracket or one from a '97 - '01 CR-V. Do not use the Integra compressor. Using the brackets I just mentioned will allow you to keep the original Civic A/C compressor (you don't even need to disconnect the lines, simply swing the compressor out of the way and tie it up with some wire or ty wraps while doing the engine swap)

Re: Obd2 dizzy to obd1
would this radiator be good for it
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/93-94...#ht_5324wt_958
and is there a website where i can get the a/c bracket because i can't seem to find anything and i already put a "Want to buy" for the a/c bracket

Re: Obd2 dizzy to obd1
Besides the radator would it be better to just take everything from the power steering off of the gsr motor since my eg doesnt have power steering

Yes. The Integra rack is quicker than the Civic P/S rack anyway, you'll also need the Integra subframe and the lower universal joint from the steering column.

Re: Obd2 dizzy to obd1
That rad is just a normal civic rad, it's got the small inlets. I'd keep the rad you have (unless it's really bad) or hold out for something better.

Re: Obd2 dizzy to obd1
vtec wiring is already run from the ECU to the shock tower plugs on '92 only civics, so if you used an engine harness from a car with vtec you wont need to wire it, you will need to wire knock and IABs though.
