Default 1994 civic vx beiing swapped with 01 gsr.

i have a donor car (2001 gsr) what parts do i have to use from the obd2 gsr to put in my civic?

is my wire harness good for this swap? or do i use the gsr?

gsr ecu or vx ecu?

can i convert this obd2b motor to a obd1?

is there any rewiring involved?


thanks for any advice.

u will need harness convertion from obd2 to obd1 and u need to use gsr ecu.shift linkage..axles..mounts..and u will need a LS throttle cable cause gsr wont fit..
pretty much just drop in ..and for the ac parts...there are various options.lmk what kind of ac set up u want to use and i will give u some idea.

no.u wont be able to use your vx cable.i tried that before and for the ac set up.i would stay with d series ac set up and get a del sol vtec or crv ac braket and reuse the d series ac compressor thats the easiest way.
but i use different set up caz i cant find the del sol vtec ac bracket in such a short time. so i use the d series pipe and condensor and fan but i use jdm p30 ac bracket and usdm gsr ac compressor,just need to modiy the h and L pressure pipes a bit.

you should use the gsr throttle cable cuz that is the ONLY one that will fit

you pretty much have to use everything from the gsr. i mean mounts, axles, shift linkage, ecu. you can use the vx harness, but you gotta wire it for vtec. like CRAZYGUY sed i gotta buy a conversion harness for the ecu cuz your car is obd1 and the ecu is obd2.

You don't have to wire up VTEC on a VX harness.
