Every buying experience for me is eating absolute **** so far. Here's the rundown, I'm looking for a new engine for my 90 dx. While it's out, I will be turbo prepping to sell top$, but that's beyond the point. So I found a d16y7 full clip with 95k minus chassis harness for 350. From what I've heard this is an alright deal. What I need to do is convert the chassis harness of my crx to obd2 since it's obd0(this is what I mean, I don't know even if it is obd0 or obd1 wtf) so why not just get an a6? who knows some stuff about this. help me out cause if it's worth it , I gotta get it b4 someone else does.

If anyones got an a8 or head let me know. But if someone could help fill me in on the wiring conversion, that would help. Thanks.

 

With the wiring issue, you will want to wire it down to OBD-1 as it is the most tuneable. Even the chaps with the OBD-2 chassis's wire it down to 1 as 2 is just too-restrictive in it's native sense. If you add an A6 head to it, be warned as the A6 head will drop the compression on the native Y7 block to a lowly 8.5:1.

For the conversion harness - contact blown90hatch, here is his thread with link to his website - https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=997093

thanks, that helped a **** load.

 

there is a better way to go around the injector clips. Get a solder and melt the two corners on each injector plug that restricts the plugs from plugging in correctly. this take about 5 minutes, I just melted mine and stuck it in before they cooled down and became a solid shape agian, they work great by the way .
