Default swap obd2 b18b in a eg, keeping motor obd2

First off, Im searching for this as your reading, but I need to find a answer asap and I have been looking for about a week but im confused and just need a straight up answer.



I have a 92 EG sedan that I am swapping a 2000 b18b into. I have the full swap worked out and the mechanics part down. Its just the wiring im really hazy on.

I will not have the obd2b harness off the teg motor, I will have a hacked up obd2b jdm rhd harness though.

I still have the eg harness of course.

I would like to do this without changing the dizzy and keep the obd2 dizzy & injectors.
can it be done? Doing the wiring is not a issue for me, I can get that done. I just need to know what has be to changed.

"...The OBDII distributer will work just fine with an OBDI ECU. The same goes for most of the sensors. Then again, there are sensors that just aren't used with OBDI (like the crankshaft speed fluctuation sensor)."

I found this in response to the question about the dizzy and the sensors


I plan on going to obd1 so that I can run a chipped p06 ecu. Or I can use the teggy ecu, I have both.

What I need to know:

What is the easiest way to get this thing running? Should I use the eg harness and rewire the plug for the dizzy (as i will have the plug for the jdm one)

What will I have to do with the injectors?

of course now that I post a question, this post that I finally found, kills all of my questions.

Im not going to bother using the jdm harness at all, as its a waste to hack up the d series harness and try to splice everything on and have issues with wiring.

I know you've already found your answer but I figured i'd post this anyway, there are 3 ways to do this, 2 good and 1 that sucks.

Option 1:
-use a '96 - '01 USDM Integra engine harness, thats it.

Option 2:
-reuse the original civic harness
-swap the injectors, alternator and distributor for OBD2 B-series units, OR swap in the old OBD1 D-series voltage regulator into the new OBD2 b-series alternator and swap the OLD D-series OBD1 CYP/CKP/TDC distributor sensors into the B-series distributor case.

Option 3:
-reuse original civic harness, cut and splice the connectors for the alternator, distributor and injectors.

1 and 2 are obviously the 2 best options, with option 1 obviously being the easiest, option 3 should really be a last resort kinda thing if you just can't find a harness or OBD1 parts or you're broke.
