The ECU from your DA is a obd0 ecu while the 01 integra is OBD2B. It will only work if you have a jumper harness.

That's what I would assume. The blinking green light means that your immobilizer doesn't detect the key that you put in. The part I don't understand is what I thought is that the immobilizer is in the ECU and since you're running an ECU without it, it should still work. Also, the key that you're using is the same key that the immobilizer identifies with. The only other thing that I can think of is to buy a immobilizer bypass.

main relay? Fuses? Or you could just do it the right way and start cutting random wires. I would go with the colors you hate. Thoose always get MaD Vtak to hit hard. And custom cut up wiring harnesses are MaD jDm y0!

that's what i was thinking. I don't know how you immediately think it is the computer because the car won't turn over. Did you even test anything else?

I also don't think your ecu is the cause of the problem.....ecu's just don't crap out on you out of the blue.....especially the obd2 ecu's. I hardly ever see or have heard of obd2 ecu's going "dead". You never know, it could be your battery...My car has been dead (all the lights turn on and everything), but there just wasn't enough juice to turn the motor over. Maybe have some one push your car while you're in the driver seat and pop the clutch while its in gear to see if it'll start.
