CRX DX, to 0bd1 B18 wiring help
Ok. I've tried looking all over on this site all morning reading through countless threads, and I havent found a clear description on what im supposed to do.
As the title states, i am putting a 1995 LS motor into a 1991 Crx.
When I bought the car it didnt have an engine, or harness or anything. The previous owner had a newer d series swap done, so it's already been converted for mpfi. Thats about all I know of it.
So, I was told by many people that I need to get a harness specifically for my car, so I did, I got a crx dx harness. Then I was told I needed to get the plugs from the LS motors harness and switch them onto the CRX harness. So i went and bought an LS harness.
Thats as far as I know.
I don't know what plugs to switch, I don't know which to make longer, i don't know anything after that. I want to have the harness on there, and working before I drop the engine in the bay. Cuz its a bitch reaching beind the engine tryin to plug stuff on.
Any help/info/link/pics would be highly appreciated.
Also, for more info, check out my build thread link in my sig. Thanks.

http://RYWIRE.COM is all you need. Send them both harnesses and they will combine them and send you a plug n play harness for your motor...
yea, i thought about that. but that also costs 280 dollars. If i can find a diagram and do it myself, i'd much rather go that route.

you have to switch the distributor plugs,delete the resistor box(if it has one), extend fan swith plug,wire up 4 wire 02 sensor..and maybe lengthened the map sensor wires..and do a obd0 to obd1 jumper harness......cake

thanks for the links and stuff. I'll have to do some homework. I was hoping to find a clear like.. picture by picture (step by step), write up. but no luck there. i've never done anything like this before so im a little skeptical. I dont wanna mess anything up cuz it was a bitch tracking these 2 harnesses down inthe first place. lol
i'm going to attempt it today. I just picked up a soldering gun, some heat shrink tubing, a heat gun, some wire, a 4 wire o2 sensor. and i have both harnesses and the jumper harness, so hopefully with a little luck and patience i should be able to get this working. Lets hope anyways.
no luck. check my build thread for the problems i encountered if you'd like.
previous owner did some frankenstein wiring job and idk what the hell is what.

--As you stated, my personal opinion if it was original converted to mpfi and you bought a new engine harness you'll have to converted it again to mpfi, Because the si and hf model are already have the mpfi.

--team2dcrx is right with this part.
I just dont know what else your missing or need help with?
