okay, here's my little inquiry. . .

i'm dropping in a 96 d16y8 into my 00 ej8... now, my car is obd2b wired, but i know that 96-98 are obd2a. would i need to get anything extra to drop the engine in my car? a friend of mine suggested i just use the manifolds from my blown (no, not turbo) y8 and problem solved.

please advise me

 

you will need to get obd2a-2b conversion harness

 

how much do those run for?

 

http://www.jdmshit.com/ecu/index.html has em for 125 shipped nextday air...

 

can't i just use my current sensors and manifolds? do i need to get this harness?
this is obd2b > obd2a... no obd1 in the equation

oh, and i can't find the obd2b>obd2a harness in the link u posted....


any and all help is appreciated.

so please tell me guys... what are the differences between odb2a and obd2b, as to how the engine (d16y8) is concerned?

 

you can use a 99-00 EX ecu instead of buying a jumper to use a 96-98 EX ecu

Does the obd2a Harness-plug fit in to the obd2b ECU if he does this?
