quick wiring harness question
ive done a gsr swap in my ek using an ex wiring harness. but it looks messy inside my engine bay because of extending wires and stuff.
i tried a search but couldnt find my answer.
can you use an OBD-2 gsr engine harness for this swap? does it plug in? i asked a guy that works at this shop and he said that it'll work and that its all plug and play.
thanks.

The Integra engine harness is a 2 piece design which plugs into the cabin harness plugs on the shock towers. This includes all years and models of Integra's 86-01. The OBD2 GSR engine harness will only work in the EG Civic and Del Sol. The 96-00 EK Civic's use a 1 piece engine harness that goes directly to the ECU. This harness can't be substituted for any other OBD style.
So the answer to your question is NO you can't use an Integra engine harness, regardless of the OBD style of the harness in your 96+ EK Civic. If you extend all the wires and do the added wiring properly and neatly, there should be no reason why it couldn't look stock with the EX harness.
