i have a 95 civic ex and im goin to swap in a b16a2. i plan on doin it myself, what i want to know is if i can use a gsr motor harness and if it will plug up to the car harness. if this is not possible could someone tell me exactly what it is i need to do. thanx.

and also my ex came with abs if i were to remove the abs will it mess up my car.

 

just use ur stock wire harness off the ex and the abs. just leave it there. it shouldnt hurt it but. why would u want to take it off. aint gonna do u no good with it off. its not that heavy. i got mine in my 94 hatch.

 

ya just get a 96-99 Gs-r harness it will plug up to the obd2 b16a2 and plug up to your 95 Ex at the firewall. by the way all integras have abs except the rs, but it is a seperate harness that has nothing to do with the ngine harness anyway

 

ok thanks for the info. would i be able to use a stock ex engine harness

 

yes but you would have to splice your distributor/injector/alternator wires because obd1 and obd2 are different plugs

 

so my best route would be using the 96-99 gsr harness. and also would i need to use a obd2 ecu or would a obd1 ecu work. its a skunk 2 chipped p30 or would i have to use the pt2? Thanx.

 

you would still use the obd1 ecu

 

ok, thanks for the help.. Also i know I need to change the driver's side post mount will an integra post mount and motor mount bolt up? and also is the rear mout on the B16A2 bolt up to my EG chassis? will my EG passenger side motor mount bolt up to the B16A2?

and also is the mounts that connect the power stearing and AC mount to the chassis required?

and any other suggestions are greatly appreciated. I am not a noob to the honda scene but i am to swapping motors im trying to do everything myself. and again, thank you for your help.

 

your driver side and passenger side single cam mounts will work on the b16a2 but you have to get the 94-01 Integra cast iron cam bracket to use the Ex/Dc2 aluminum mount (or you can just get a 92-95 cx/dx/lx single cam steel driverside mount and keep the b16a2 cam bracket) but you need the 94-01 Integra rear T bracket no matter what, you can leave the a/c bracket off if you want but I would keep it on
