Default need help '92 cx + '00 B16A2(with the '00 Si ECU)

ok Picked up my hatch saturday and have my B16 sitting all nicely waiting to be dropped in I do have some ?'s though.
Need to run my list of what is needed by you guys and make sure it is correct and complete.
I would like a engine harness I can plug right into the engine and into the under hood plugs with as few splices as possible what will work?
(OBDI DOHC Vtec Del Sol engine harness maybe?)
What shift linkage will I need to get for this swap? the 99-00 Si's? (that is what the engine was out of)
The OBDI --> OBDII conversion harness for the ecu connection
O2 sim (I made one but I need to test it still) or 'custom' cat *cough* testpipe w/o2 bung *cough *
Also since the CX has only 1 airbag and the Si had 2 will this cause any problems (I know SRS has it's own control system but did not know if the two(ECU and SRS Unit) 'talked')
What axles will I need, will the stock '00 Si's work?
I have the HalfShaft out of the Si and the axles but both axles are shot.
Is there anything I am forgetting?

Some non engine swap ?'s
anyone know if I can Bolt up the Si's Front calipers to the CX and then upgrade the front rotors(bigger ones...)
If I do the rear end/brake conversion with the stuff from a '00 Si (have the whole rear suspension minus spings/shocks) what problems might I encounter (Currently planning on leaving Stock CX Master Cylinder/Brake Booster and proportioning Valve any big issues with doing this?)

Some stuff just for the hell of it
these are only if ppl are feelign REALLY nice today
I want to add the rear wiper what stuff would I need to get the CX did not even have this as an option.
Anyone have a rear hatch cover from a hatch with Grey Interior that they would want to sell?
Thanks guys any help would be greatly appriciated.

If you are going OBD2, you are goign to have to change the distributor wiring around a little bit and using the p2t ecu with the air bag i don't believe communicate at all.

they are 2 completely systems and have their own ecu's.

if you wanna save yourself some headaches, get a obd1 p30 ecu (del sol vtec) and all you need to add is knock sensor.

just my input.

96-97 DEL SOL DOHC engine harness or 97-98 ITR harness.

What shift linkage will I need to get for this swap? the 99-00 Si's? (that is what the engine was out of)
99-00 SI will work fine.

The OBDI --> OBDII conversion harness for the ecu connection
O2 sim (I made one but I need to test it still) or 'custom' cat *cough* testpipe w/o2 bung *cough *
i dont like messin with the wiring crap id find a OBD1 DOHC DEL SOL ECU (mentioned earlier P30)

Also since the CX has only 1 airbag and the Si had 2 will this cause any problems (I know SRS has it's own control system but did not know if the two(ECU and SRS Unit) 'talked')
no they dont "talk"

What axles will I need, will the stock '00 Si's work?
any 94-01 integra axles, 94-97 DOHC DEL SOL axles, or 99-00 SI axles.

Is there anything I am forgetting?
yes, u need the 94-01 integra rear tranny mount, u need a 94-01 integra drivers side upper mount.

anyone know if I can Bolt up the Si's Front calipers to the CX and then upgrade the front rotors(bigger ones...)
u cant bolt them up unless u have the SI calipers, if i remember right u will need the entire SI knuckle assembly.

If I do the rear end/brake conversion with the stuff from a '00 Si (have the whole rear suspension minus spings/shocks) what problems might I encounter (Currently planning on leaving Stock CX Master Cylinder/Brake Booster and proportioning Valve any big issues with doing this?)
u shouldnt have any problems at all, i heard that the rear A arm is different but i cant verify. u also need the E brake cable from the SI.

for some reason i thought he needed the GSR shift linkage, but I could very well be wrong!

hope all goes well!

GSR/SI same thing.

I did the same swap into a 95 si. I just got a 94-97 gsr harness and used a p30 ecu. That way all the plugs into the motor fit no problem and also the plugs for the ecu were no problem. Just had to hook up the knock sensor wire. I sold my 00 si ecu and bought a p30. 00 si axles worked on mine. Also the shift linkages. Good luck.

bzzz partly wrong answer. i already did the guy the favor of answering almost all questions he asked then u go throw that into this. the harness used WITHOUT CUTTING was a 94-95 which is OBD1. OBD2 is 96+ so that EXCLUDES the 96,97 model yrs. the P30 does plug into the cx but its also OBD1, big differences.
dont partake in answering questions u dont have the answer to. it just makes it messy for the rest of us to clean up.

calm down there buddy, you have a good point in saying the 96 97 gsr is obd2, my mistake. So why didn't you tell him that in the first place? You said use a del sol vtec harness, but the 94-95 gsr does the job also, without cutting. Anway no use going back and forth. Quick question though, is a 97 98 itr obd1? You say that he can use a 94-97 del sol vtec harness or a 97-98 itr harness, so I'm just wondering.

its ok, ill let it slide.

So why didn't you tell him that in the first place?
i listed specific yrs of harnesses and parts etc, i believe that covered the whole realm of problems.

You said use a del sol vtec harness, but the 94-95 gsr does the job also, without cutting
this is partly true also. use a DEL SOL VTEC harness but it must b 96-98 preferably DOHC otherwise the dist plug is different, hence requires cuttin. the 94-95 GSR harness DOES NOT do the job. its OBD1 the injector plugs and distributor plugs r different also, some sensors r in different locations too.

Quick question though, is a 97 98 itr obd1?
all ITR harnesses r OBD2 although i believe the 00-01 ITR harness is technically OBD2.5 because of the immobilizer in the ECU.

You say that he can use a 94-97 del sol vtec harness or a 97-98 itr harness, so I'm just wondering.
if u look closer i said 96-97 DEL SOL DOHC VTEC harness. look above for more info. the 97-98 ITR harness will also plug in, its just a slightly taller block.
