Just a question for the future.

What all Acura and Honda commonly swapped motors are OBD2?

Because I know there is not a specific year that all motors turned OBD2, but that it differs from car to car.

Thanks.

 

OBD2 was introduced in 96'

for 96-00 civic's
OBD2a = 96-98
OBD2b = 99-00

 

What about Integra/Prelude/CRV/Accord Motors?

 

anything 96'+ is obd2..

96+ integras were obd2a until 99 i believe, and then obd2b
just look up the information pertaining to your motor/car.

www.google.com

and its quite easy to buy a conversion harness and call it a day..

 

Yeah, I am just looking for the best options for a swap in the future.

I would go with a conversion harness however I want my swap to be fully legal and able to pass emissions.

 

There are OBD2 variants of the Integra Type R ("B18C5"), as well as Integra GSR ("B18C1"). B16A2 is obd2b which is still an option. Integra LS motors ("B18B1") run this year range too.

Of course there's the K-series motors, but that's a bit much. Also, OBD1 "D16Z6" blocks are simple enough to make-work in OBD2 without throwing codes, you just have to do some oil pump junk (CKF bypass trick, or change the oil pump) as long as your state doesn't mind you having an older block but everything else OBD2.
