Default Now What...JDM B18C swap

Last night I got my stock engine outta my 2000 CX......my engine finally came in after 2 weeks w/ the stupid shipping company. I'm putting in the JDM B18c1 from Steve at HMO. Where do I start? lol......I gotta clear my mind and make sure I get back on track. Engine Bays' empty I'll be ready to drop it back in after I do timing belt and stuff........what'll help me?...drop it in and do wiring later I believe

Do the wiring when it is out of the car. Pull your engine harness out (disconnect the ecu plugs and one other plug and pull it out). Mock the harness on the motor then extend/splice the wires that you need.

Sounds like you are trying to use the JDM harness. That harness will not work on your car. Reuse your old CX harness and add the wires that are needed (vtec).
