I'm putting a JDM B20 in my car, and have encounter a few problems.

1) What Wiring harness should I use?
2) What ECU should I use.

I was thinking of the stock CRV wiring harness, and an OBD1 LS computer to get rid of a few CEL. And of course, an OBD2b to OBD1 jumper.

The car is going to be a stock B20, and daily driven.

Thanks so much!

 

use your stock engine harness

a chipped obd1 ls ecu with a b20 base map will do (link phearable.net)

 

Problem: Sold it already lol. And it had the Vtec plug anyways.

 

well you gotta fine a 99-00 civic engine harness

on a side note you cant use a integra engine harness and a 96-98 civic harness

 

Why not?

 

cuz there not same

the 94-01 integra harness is like the 92-95 civic harness

and 96-98 civic harness have all 3 ecu plugs on it

the 99-00 civic harness have 2 ecu plug on it and the other one is the dash harness

 

Anyone else have any comments?

 

get back your 99-00 Si harness fool. there is no other option.

 

can you explain to me why. It's not a vtec motor, so its fine if that plug just sits there? and will any other harness work?

 

the answer has been given to you already....

USE A 99-00 SI HARNESS if you don't want to run into problems...

yes those plugs can just hang there!

 

That's fine if the 'vtec plugs' just sit there, also any other 99-00 Civic engine harness would work, but its good to have EX/Si harness in case you ever go vtec again.

Other harnesses have different emissions/sensor equipment. Its always best to use your chassis specific harness, and just use a stepdown for ECU purposes. Reason being, a lot of things are different in 6th gen Civics ('EK') than the EG or DC chassis.

 

Thats what I was looking for.

Thanks so much.

And Im on the right track on the ECU right?

 

yes your on track with the ecu

 

No prob, anytime.

Yes you are on track with the ECU as well.
