I am currently putting a first gen jdm b16a in a 95 ex coupe. I have a few questions about the obd1 to non obd wireing. I will be using a rechiped p28 ecu and ex wireing harness. If it matters, i will also be using a 2000 si tranny. The questions are:

1) Can i use the sensors that came on the b16a or will i have to use the d16 sensors?

2) If i can use the sensors, can i just cut the plugs from the b16 harness and sorder them on the d16 harness in there correct location? (since the plugs don't seem to be the same)

3) since i'm using the d16 wireing harness, will the 4 wire o2 sensor from the d16 work properlyin the b16?

4)Can i still use the distributor that came with the b16 or will i have to get one that is obd1.

5) Does anyone know a site on the web that has a diagram or clear explaniation of the swap i'm doing?

There are probably some things that i'm forgetting but i'll clear those issues once i can get this strait. Any info will be greatly appreciated. Thanks

yes the sensors that are on the motor right now will work. which sensors don't look the same? they should all clip together.

I would save some time and find myself a OBDI header just use the o2 sensor from your single cam.

you'll need to get a new distributor.

also you'll need a new thermostat housing because the first gens don't have the ECT sensor on it.

i knew the distributor plug wasn't the same but you said i'm going to have to replace that anyway. The vtec wire plug didn't look lik it fit either. I'm going to have to go back an take another look. Thanks for the advice. Anyone else???

the clip doesn't need to be soldered. just change the plug on the harness. pull the pin out and switch it

Will the d series distrubutor work? (my guess is no)

No it won't work you will need a non-OBD SiR distributor or a 90-91 Integra LS and cut one of the mount legs off - ghetto but it works.

OK, i'm really confused. Could someone please clarify. Why can't I us an obd1 distributor and if i'm going to use a non obd distributor, why not use the one i have that came with the swap.

you cannot use your obdI single cam distributor, you can mod a LS distributor to fit but one of the legs needs to be cut off to fit. I say just find yourself a 92-95 gsr distributor or a 2 gen B16 distributor. My buddy has a few spares if you want one.
