shoklid

what motor ?

im not sure. are d16z6 in a del sol? im buying a p28 today and the guy says its obd2a p28 ecu

kp

P28 is obd1. They came in the 92-95 Civic Si.

ek coupe

there not just in si. P28: 92-95 OBD-1 Civic Si/Ex. im just wondering cause this guy im buying the p28 off of say his p28 is obd2a that its a special thing from being a del sol

kp

Si/EX = Same thing. Canada/US.

What year of Del Sol is this from?

ek coupe

he says its a 96-97 del sol si

kp

This is OBD2A. VV





This is OBD1. VV

yes i know what a obd2a and obd1 ecu are.

kp

Then what the heck? You know the P28 comes from the 92-95 Civic Si/Ex. These years are OBD1. You also know what the different style ecu plugs look like, but yet you created a thread asking what ecu comes in the 96 del sol.

What did I miss?

im just wondering cause this guy that im buying the p28 from say the ecu is obd2a and he says its something special from being a del sol so thats why the p28 is obd2a

Is this ECU being shipped to you? If you're picking it up, just go look at it and if it's the one you need then buy it.

Tell the guy to take pictures of it if you're so paranoid.

ek coupe

no im going to pick it up.

kp

Well best of luck, hopefully you don't get ripped.

Only your teeth will be kicked. You should know exactly what you're looking for now.

If you are asking whether or not a P28 OBD2A ecu actually exists, then yes, it does, it's uber rare, but it does exist. And it comes out of guess what? a 96-97 del sol.

HiProfile

99.99% of the time, the ecu corresponds to the engine, NOT chassis/trim. The p28 from a 92 SI was the same as a 92 EX, for instance.

The "P28" from the 96+ del sol would probably be an UNMODIFIABLE odb2a P2E. All the guy is saying is he knows little about Hondas, but knows this ecu has vtec.

is there anything weird about them or they just like a normal p28?

You can't chip and reprogram the ecu as easily as you can an OBD1 P28. It's possible, just much more of a hassle:

can you chip a obd2a p28?

Look at the link in my previous post, I said you can, but it's a hassle. Don't expect to be able to run Hondata, Neptune, Crome, or any other OBDI type software.

if i were to turn around and sell it how much do you think i could get for it?
