you can get a new harness or you can chop up your current one and use a jumper harness...I have a 97dx with a b16a, I went with the chop and jumper harness...wasn't too hard.
you mean where the ecu is or what i have the harness that goes to 0bd2 to obd1 will i have to change the harness under the hood ??????

Well here's my story, this may help you. I have a 97 dx and my swap was a 92-94 jdm b16a. The d16y7 from my dx ran an obd 2 harness while the engine and new computer I got with it were obd 1. I couldn't use all of the harness from the b16a because it was set up for a right hand drive car. I didn't want to spend money on a ex harness so I plugged in as much of the sensor as I could from the d16 harness and soldered on the b16 connectors where things weren't plug and play. Then I used the obd 2 to obd 1 jumper harness to plug into the ecu I got with the swap. I had to run wires for vtec directly to the ecu and I soldered them into the jumper harness. I ran into a little trouble here; however, I found a local guy who was more familiar than I and he was able to repin and get things running correctly for about $40
Make sense?
