u going to be using a OBDII engine on a OBDO car
u might as well get the conversion plug from OBDO to OBDI and convert ur car in a OBDI, and then get a OBDI GSR ecu and plug the engine as a 2G GSR....that will be the easiest way IMO..... then motor mounts issues, bangin the hood, and few other stuff...

 

jdmef9...is that easier than just running the gsr obd0 since his car's obd0 anyway? That's what I would do, but I could be wrong. Put a 1st gen dizzy (vtec) and replace all injectors (91 teg), and use PR3 or PW0...may have to convert dpfi to mpfi if need be and like you said, "motor mounts issues etc..."

 

he has an Si so no need to convert to mpfi.

 

I didnt think there was an obd0 gsr? I thought the first was the 92, which used the b17. I would probably do the conversion to obd1 and be done with it. The gsr swap is sweet.

 

You will have a killer with the C1

 

I agree, you'll prolly want to run the 94-95 OBD-1 GS-R ECU. I don't really like to advocate converting the 88-91 to OBD, but in this case it's warrented. No other ECU will operate the secondary butterflies that the GS-R's have in their intake manifold. Also, the 92-93 GS-R's are just glorified B16's anyways. Don't run one of those ECU's.

Also, you may want to check out THIS article from the hybrid page. It's about a CRX with a B18C1 swaped in.

Use search(also go to the right side and scroll down to "arcived topics")
ALSO visit Hasport.com, they have a list of other smaller part that you will need.

*Buy Blownhatch ODB-0 to OBD-1 conversion harness $150
*hasport Mounts
*hasport shift-linkage
*skunk2 Intake mantifold(will make it easyer in the IM wireing and clearance with the fire wall)
*90+ integra trottle cable
*any cable tranny(reccomend the 92-93 GSR tranny)(but the are rare
*make sure all parts are OBD-1(distributor, fuel rail, injectors, altenator)
*if you can't get a GSR ecu right away you can use a 92-95 civic ex/si ecu. They will work fine, but not better than the GSR ecu.

I thinks that's it. Please correct me if i'm wrong.
Good luck with the swap.
