you won't be able to use the engine harness out of your coupe. you have to modify your std harness, convert it to mpfi, run the extra wires for the 4 wire o2 sensor and run the wires for vtec also. i'm not sure about the shift linkage. is there anything wrong with the shift linkage that's on your hatch???

damn a first time swap with a duel to multi point and an obd0 to 1 conversion. is it even worth it just for a z6.

i think the info for wiring should be on here just search. you can have a harness made by rywire and you'll need a chipped computer. you will also need swap shift linkage and actuator if you are using the z6 tranny as it is hydraulic.

check the faq its all there, you need the obd0-obd1 jumper (possible to make your own if your really broke...LOL), you use your harness from your car and modify it using the z6 harness for mpfi, you will need a 4 wire 02 sensor (pull from your donor car), you will need a hyro trans conversion kit (if using the hydro trans), you should be able to use your shift linkage from your hatch, use the z6 ecu.
