i dont think zc came in obd2 but maybe im wrong.. on my zc in my crx i used obdo ZC dist and the ZC cam sensor . ( which can be used from 88-89 integra) and a 89 integra ecu i used. i used stock crx SI wiring harness and just modified the two blue wires on the plug for dist to reach to the CAM sensor . u need a zc dist though. si ones and all that are diff cause of the cam sensor.

Just fix the stock harness if you can. Use the IM and TB included on the engine, no reason to change them.

Get the correct harness for the chassis and go from there. Pick on up from your local wrecker or pick-a-part place and go from there.

If the motor is an obd1, you can get yourself a external cam sensor and dizzy from a 88-89 PG7 integra and make it work in your EF. Run the harness accordingly, as a A6 would go and everything will work out fine. You will have to re-pin the dizzy plug to the DX style square for the 6 pin plug and de-pin the 2 cam sensor wires (blue/yellow and blue/green) and run them off to the cam sensor, but other than that, everything will work fine.

You still need to add a couple things on your engine to fit in your car bruv,

The sensor for coolant temp will need to be extended.

The Left Engine Bracket needs to be swapped with the bracket off your stock D15/D16 engine

Pick up an 88-89 Integra Distributor to swap onto your ZC - slang the OBD-1 distributor you just pulled off - it sells well on ebay.

88-89 Integra Cam angle sensor - the front of your ZC should have a rubber blocked off plug - be really careful getting this thing out-if you're to harsh on it, you'll end up scratchin the inner bore which can lead to an annoying leak -this happened to me so heads up.

Extend the wire on the Firewall mounted MAP to the TB mounted MAP on your ZC

If you're gonna pick up an Si engine harness you'll need to mod the Distributor plug switch it from the larg circle plug to the small rectangular plug to fit the 88-89 teg distributor

swap out the "saturated" type injectors from your ZC to stock "peak and hold" type88-91 Si units -
should be it
find a PM6 ror PG7 to make it spin

you're set
