i have a 91 civic hatch si with the stock 1.6. its my dd and i dont have the time to pull the motor and build it, its smokes rather badly. im saving up $$ to get my buddies d16z6 from his 94 civic sedan. i already know id would have to wire upo the vtec. will my tranny just bolt straight to it? should the stock harness hook up to the motor? im just trying to do this right the first time. any and every tip i can get will be greatly appreciated.

 

Use your.stock harness

Convert to obd1

Wire up vtechh

Get obd1vtec dizzy and ecu p28 or chipped po6

Use your.trans

If you do the clutch always match clutch to trans

 

How do I convert to obd1?

 

Either jumper or hardwire your harness

Pm crx_si-r he makes jumper harness makes obd1 conversion easy plug n play

 

the price of all the jumpers might steer you away.. but trust me.. its so much easier and so much less of a hassle to buy the jumpers.. when i went obd1 i bought everything from rywire.. and my ecu from phearable.net and i ended up paying close to $450 i think.. but i would do it over in a heart beat.. (actually I did) but this time i bought all used stuff from the market place.. my ecu jumper.. my ecu.. and i got my dizzy from distributor king w/ lifetime warrenty.. and im making my own dizzy jumper cuz thats easy..

 

Crx_si-r is a lot.cheaper than rywire

 

i know.. im just saying reguardless of the price I would rather buy some jumper's.. and knowing that his stuff is cheaper than rywire and really nice work.. and local to me.. id buy his stuff real quick

 

dude. search. its been covered A MILLION TIMES. smdh every one has to be spoon fed these days

 

This forum is for questions. So you don't have to be an ***.

Thanks for the tips guys. I'm on a tight budget, so this is gonna suck. Lol

 

Its not so much of being a *** he's right this topic has been covered too much

Google will be your.friend

There isn't something your gonna want to.do that hasn't been done

So search and post.threads.of things you don't understand

 

FAQ is your friend.

 

I research but it's also good to hear from someone with experience

 

My original plan was to do a b swap. But I like the ac and stuff off my d. So I figured I'd go vtech. And my current motor is crap. This is my first actual swap so...

 

You can go b and keep.ac.just need hasport brackett

 

Can anyone point me in the right direction to fiNd a good website on how to make a jumper harness?

 

swap a JDM DOHC ZC into it - bolts right in with minor wiring change to your harness - use your ECU - nothing else to buy - ZC has more horsepower than a D16Z6

 

Tell me where I can find one. Lol I know exactly where a z6 is
