Heyas, I was told my a friend that the OBD2a harness is reverse compatible with the OBD1 harness, in the sense that I can use the OBD2a harness and remove a couple wires to run the OBD1 ecu? Can anyone give me a link or info on what specifically needs to be done?

Also, I have heard that I need to change the d16y7 alternator with a d15b7 or other OBD1 alternator? Is this true?

if that was the case then there would be no obd2a>obd1 conversion harness sold in the import market.

What about using a d15b7 harness on the d16y7?

 

obd1 parts as far as distributor/injectors/alternator/harness will always be different from obd2

so with a conversion harness, can I still use the obd2 parts?

I have a spare d15b7 motor in my garage, so I'm sitting pretty in that aspect.

Shed some light.. what are my options and what needs to get done?

Got my answers. Thanks.
