Default OBD2 Donor car, Obd1 Car

So my computer at work is extremely slow. So even though ill get flamed(puts on fire suit) I figured id try to get a direct answer rather take 5 hours on a shitty internet connection trying to search. So my apologies.

Situation i have is i have a 96 Integra Gs-r. I was t-boned so now im left with a parts car. I came upon a Cx hatch today, and im debating now what i wanna do, keep the gs-r parts or sell them. The whole accident has set me back financially unil the insurance claim go through.

Question is if i wanted to swap basicly everything from the gs-r to a 1994 cx, would i have to switch up the engine harness, ecu, and dist, being their obd2. Or is it possible to leave the engine,dist,harness in tact, and just do a ecu conversion(such as jumper harness). One thread i did come upon while attemping to search before i got frustrated was, a guy said you could use the obd2 harness and dist, but run a obd1 ecu.

Any information is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Plug and Play baby, no conversion harness required!

Your GSR Engine harness will plug right into your shock-towers in the CX hatch and then you just need an OBD1 P72 *IIRC* from a 94-95 GSR Teggy and it will work perfectly. (You will also need to lay wiring for Vtec from your ECU to your shock tower, but thats fairly easy)

I KNOW this works from experience, I have a 96 B18B1 in a 92 CX hatch, Plugs right in, started right up with an OBD1 ECU despite the dizzy, alternator, etc being OBD2.

I had a mini-me SOHC and I was never happy with it because it was totally gutless (No Torque) hence why I went B18B1, and I'm glad I spent the money on it now, (Regret spending money on the D )
