no, you CANNOT run an obd0 distributor with an obd1 ecu. All parts must be obd1 if that is the ecu you are going to be running

negatory. the point of making the coversion harness is so on an originally obd0 car you can use an obd1 distributor with an obd1 ecu. obviously you would need the obd0-1 ecu harness/jumper as well.

ninja edit: dayum! beat me to it

junkyard? ebay? craigslist?

also, there is no such thing as an obd0 p72.

The oldest ecu you'd be able to find which was designed for a gsr, is the obd1 p61 for the b17a1 from the 92-93 gsr. since you are going to have to go to obd1 anyway you might as well just get a 94-95 obd1 p72.

ninja edit: wait a minute. why are you looking for a gsr ecu, but a dizzy for a b18a ? if you really meant that you need an obd0 b18a ecu, then just get a pr4 and keep everything obd0. oh and quit threadjackin. took me a min to realize you weren't the OP lol.

maybe it designates auto or manual? or perhaps whether its obd0 or obd1? i'm not really sure. just make sure whatever one you get states that it is for the obd and trans type you have.

an obd0 pw0 does not have control for iab's (secondary butterflies) and will cause you to lose mid-range power. if you spent the money to get a gsr you might as well spend a little more for the correct ecu.
