im looking to do this swap this weekend if at all posible and im woundering if i can use the ecu from the d15b

also can i use the injectors from the d15

and will the harness have to be moded for the obd2 engine to run on a obd1 ecu and harness??


any info would be help full but im thinking that every thing should be fine as is as long as we dont try to go with a obd2 ecu

I'm not 100% sure on all this but it should help a bit.

D15B = OBD1 2pc engine/cabin harness.
D16Y& = OBD2 1 pc engine/cabin harness, diff dist/inj plugs/TB iacv

Use your D15B engine harness on the Y7. Not sure if your D15 dist will fit the Y7 head (bolt pattern) but you should swap that over and your injectors. I believe the D15 uses a 2 wire IACV vs. the 3 wire Y7. That means you should swap your TB too.

Not sure if that is all right but someone else should be able to confirm.

the motor were picking up currently comes with a y8 intake manifold and a b18 tb im not sure what year that b18tb is from though what kind of mods usealy have to be done to use a b18 tb on a civic harness??

you gotta get the Obd2 dizzy plug, to splice on you dizzy. your gonna have to figure out somthing with your CFS crank fluctuation sensor. the D16Ys have them down on the crank, the obd1 D15s have them in the dizzy. i cant think of any other problems

aarontrini85

ok i guess tomorrow ill hit up the junk yard for the dizzy harness

as far as the cfs any one have a solution for that??

Why would he put an obd2 dist plug on an obd1 dist, when he has to reuse his obd1 engine harness?

aarontrini85

he is saying that i will have to use an obd2 dizzy so i would need the obd2 plut on the obd1 harness (i think that is what he is saying)

I just swapped by d16y7 for a b16 i prob have most of the parts you want including the obd2 dizzy and a plug (you'll have to solder it together but i can help w/ that). Let me know if you need any other parts, right now its just taking up space

In that case, you'll have two wires left over for the crank sensor on the obd1 harness. Just run those to the sensor by the crank pulley.

man i wish you were in IL but this is sort of an emergancy thing lol my buddys block is messed up on the d15 so we are just doing this swap becouse right now its going to be cheaper then a new d15 or so it seems lol


any one know if the d15 tranny can mate up to the d16??

aarontrini85

d15 tranny does mate up to a d16 so i think im all good then thanks again for all the help and ill probly take some pics and let every one know how it goes

b16_DIM

good luck

aarontrini85

took longer then i thought since the motor mounts were messed up but were getting new ones today


the distributer fits fine though the tranny there are no issues with except were picking up a new clutch and fly wheel at the end of this week


also the intake manifold fits fine on the y7 so does the b18tb and the tb postion sensor hooks up fine to the harnness (im new to hondas but i do like this all being universal thing lol)

next up is hunting down a si tranny before this thing gets shoved back in friday night


way off topic but has any one used a dsm 14b on a d before?? does it spool to slow? becouse my buddy got a 20g and im doing his intercooler piping and he is giving me the 14b for free so i figured i might as well throw it on this d since it already has a good headgasket and arp head studs
