No, this isn't one of those, omg how do I put a Z6 into my car? More like...
Im buying a D16Z6 tomorrow! And a 4th gen si tranny! It has no accessories on it (the Z6) besides exhaust manifold. So I'm wondering if the starter, alternator, and a/c compressor are the same for my D15B1 in my STD. Also, when he pulls out the engine, how can I tell it is a Z6. I know there is a stamp somewhere on the engine block, but if you could decsribe to me where it is or post a pic of where it is. That would be perfect. If I buy a hondata s200, can I engage vtec (NOT VTECH!) myself? I'll post pics if I buy it tomorrow.

 

Does the wiring harness from an OBD-0 PM6 ECU plug into an OBD-1 P28 ECU?

 

I have a 91 CRX Si and im doing the mini-me swap, i everyone says i need a P28 ECU, but don't i need a different wiring harness then?

As far as I'm concerned, all the D series alternators, starters, A/C compressors will fit on the engine. You can tell it is a D16z6 by looking at the code stamped on the block on the left side of the exhaust manifold. You'll see a flat area usually it has oil stains over it. Just get a rag and wipe it off and you can tell. If you get a hondata chip, yes you can engage Vtec at any setting it has been programmed to.

The wire harness from an OBD-0 Will not plug into an OBD-1 p28 ECU. You will need a OBD-0 to OBD-1 conversion harness. There are a few reputable makers on the boards that can help ya. Blown90hatch being one of them.

Is there an ECU with vtec that is OBD-0?

But I am also pretty sure you can get a vafc to activate Vtec on a pre obd car.

 

i was told you can use the pg7 ecu from an integra, its obd0 and has vtec, but do i need a ZC dizzy or can i use my A6 dizzy?

 

you'll need the dist. that matches your ecu. i got a zdyne one wire and stayed obd0.

 

pr3 or pw0 are both obd0 (jdm) and for b16's but they will run a sohc vtec, you'll just need to run a few wires.
