first time posting
i have a 1995 civic dx hatch 1.5 non vtec
just swapped in my mini me(d15 block, d16y8 head)
just wondering about wiring
on my stock harness witch i plan to use and just run vtec to the ecu, there is two extra clips behind the intake manifold what do i do with them?
also do i need a new dizzy or can i use my d15
the engine has ran b4 i bought it used but i was recently rebuilt and put in the car and then the car was stolen and wrecked then i came across the engine so i know it works
lmk any info helps
ill try to get pics up

 

nobody has any info!!!!!

 

I'm pretty sure you're gonna need a OBD 1 - OBD2 Jumper harness and a OBD 2 Distrutor. and maybe a OBD-2 ECU. I'm not forsure though. i plan on doing my mini me swap soon but seems like to much work.

 

well im not sure about a jumper harness cause its a obd1 car already i dont want to convert it
if i have to i guess any one do a mini me swap like this d15 with y8 head and intake mani and **** i still have the d15 intake should i use that?

 

you're going to need an adjustable cam gear. because of the way the timing is with the y8 cam.

what do the two plugs have on them? the back of the motor should have:
iacv on the intake manifold
tps and map sensor on the tb
oil pressure sensor
fan switch on thermostat housing
intake air temp sensor on intake manofold

you will need a obd1 vtec d series dizzy you cant use the y8 dizzy with your harness

 

thats what i thought obd1 dizzy
well the car already ran and i havnt touched the timing or anything so idk if i do need a camgear
i do know i need a p28 and i know how to wire up vtec but the 3 sensors on the back all had places on the d15 harness i think there just emissions bs cause i have all the things you said hooked up^

 

good. it ran smooth and everything? may be a power loss though so its best to have a gear. have fun with it

 

i know what the two lips r for. if im correcto one wire is red and white and the other is green and white right but they have no connector just the pin. they should go to the coolant temp sensor i believe thats what it is called.. it shuld b the last sensor on the head towards the radiator. it should b next to another sensor way smaller.. all u have to do is get a connector and connect it i beleive.

 

You shouldn't need to get a cam gear, just make sure its in time and you can use your distributor on the mini me.. If you're wanting to wire up vtec on ur ECU, here is a diagram...

 

thanks for the info
update just got the car running there was a relay switch for the battery
it cranked over and runs fine it will idle after it warms but it has vacumm leaks does any one know wheere i can get a vacumm line diagram

 

Oops, my bad dude, I didn't read all of your first post, you were saying something about the y8 head, you can use the obd2 distributor casing, but you would have to take all your obd1 dizzy stuff and put it into the obd2 dizzy casing.. that way they dizzy will line up with the bolt holes on the y8 head...

 

you dont need a vacuum diagram lol just make sure vacuum gets to everythig that needs it and then you can plug everything else off. it will be fine
