Hi guys, I'm after abit of help.

Me n my mate r goin 2put a D16Z6 in2 my civic. its a non-vtec 1.5 as standard.

Thing is, were not exactly sure of wot we need 2do this swap.

We no we need the engine, gearbox & ecu. I also no that we need sum wiring looms, but which 1s? We have access 2the whole car, so gettin everythin isn't a problem.

I'm guessin that we'll need the engine 2ecu harness. Is there any other bits we'd need?

cheers.

i would grab everything like the ecu, tranny, motor, shift linkage, axles, exhaust manifold, intake manifold, wiring harness, distributor, alternator, etc. I think there's something you need to do to the wirings (someone else correct me) to make it VTEC-capable considering yours didn't come with VTEC, unless it's a 1992 civic hatchback CX which was wired for vtec.

btw, what car are you swapping this into..?

What car do you have? A 92-95DX? I believe all you have to do other than put the engine, ECU and tranny in is run a wire for vtec from the ECU. You need to state what car you have other than 1.5L

YEah if its just a DX you only going to need to run a wire for Vtec.....very easy.

No i beleive only the 92's were all "prewired" for vtec

the car is a UKDM LSi(D15B2)

i no weve gotta run the wire 4the vtec. jus don't no if we need the harness that goes 2the clocks?

You dont NEED the tranny, but your stocker will hurt performance. But if you have access to a parts car, i would grab it and the engine harness too.
