Ok, I"m very frustrated about my swap. I have a '99 civic hatch. I bought a '94 B18C. I also have the B18C ECU that goes with it. AND I have a full GSR main wiring harness ( the interior one that goes through the firewall and connects to the engine harness and to the ECU). Now everything is done. Engine is IN, everythings connected, blah blah blah.... but I CANNOT figure out how to get this thing wired up. All I want to know is how I can make the motor ( B18C) run correctly, using the gsr main harness and using that ecu ( P72).
I don't want to get a skunk 2 manifold.
I don't have money to get a 99- 00 Si wiring harness and add wires to it.
I dont' want to have to use an ecu jumper ( obd 2 to obd 1)

Is there ANY way to do this????
What NEEDS to be connected to make the car start... ?? ignition, ecu, motor, battery, etc .....?
I'm friggin lost....

and everyone keeps giving my links to that jspectuning, and honda hybrid perf.com and stuff like that , but jspectunning show's how to swap a obd 2 motor into a obd 2 car... and hybid perf show 's not enough..

someone...........
please....

In order to do this you need to "hack" into the original '99 harness (take out the OBDII plugs that fit into the '99 ECU). You can do this by removing the pins from the plugs. Then swap over the '99 wiring into the OBD I P72 plugs that came with the new harness. Not every wire will have a home, and you'll need to run a new wire for the IAB valve. It's a pain, but it can be done, and of course you'll need the pinout fro the OBD I P72, and the '99 OBD II ECU, as the purge valve (EVAP) and Knock wires are different (I think)


'94 B18C1 -> Motor Harness -X '99 Civic body harness X- OBD I Plugs ->P72 ECU

Get it?
