ok...lets try again..i need help. had a USDM H23 with an H22 head. put in a H22 JDM motor in....how do i do the wire harness? do i have 2 re run wires? should i try 2 find a new harness from some place? got so far and just want to get this project running.

If you already had an H23vtec in there then there should be nothing to rewire. Swap the longblock and call it a day

 

do i have to keep the H23 ecu? the motor i got came with a H22 ecu. would that screw up the way the motor runs? i see that there is an extra plug for the wire harness in the H22 ecu...i didnt do the head swap so i dont know what this fruit loop did to the wires. i got the car that way.

 

Yes you should use the h22 ecu. Plug it up fire it up check for codes and go from there.

 

well the story is that i got the car from out of state. great shape. had this head swap done already. got it for the shape of the body. the kid said the water jacket was blown in the block. was planning on getting an H22 for it. now im finding this is not as easy as i thought it would be.

 

thank you for the reply...i didnt want to mess this motor up by trying to start it with not askin questions.

 

one more question...the wires are on the other side of the motor...guess cuz its a JDM motor...so the wires dont reach...do i cut and extend the wires or is there a better way to do this.

use the intake manifold in the car already so u dont have to worrie about wiring anything. again JUST SWITCH THE LONGBLOCK

 

ok...welll im a *** then cuz the old intake i sold already...i wanted to swap everything. . . huge diff in miles. old one had 172k new one has 40k. boy im an ***. this is all new to me. i always had del sols. ludes are new to me.
