Default 90 Civic DX Project

Starting a new project just picked up this civic for 500 plan on just making it a simple d series dd maybe boost later but we will see. it came with a mini me and i have no idea if it runs or not there is wires every where lol looks like someone gave up on a dpfi to mpfi swap it also came with a obd0 to obd1 harness connected to some chipped ecu havent had time to check yet its lowered on some kind of coilovers havent check those either and has full exhaust but im not feeling the crook going to get it repositioned heres some pics will take more when i start working on it tomorrow

*Updates

Got to looking around today i found out i have a chipped p28 for a ecu it didnt have a cover so im not sure if it works or not and as you can see the wiring is a mess



Went to the local U Pull It and picked up a si harness and a p06 ecu for back up just incase and some odds and ends i will need



The harness that came with the car.....



Debating if i should take the time and shave and tuck this bay but i dont wanna take all that time and find out the wiring is screwed maybe after i get it running to be safe



The battery cables in this car were horrid i dont know how they expected to start anything with these the other was worse i replaced these with stock honda cables



ok i have all the wires where they need to go now for the ecu but i have one loose wire i cant figure out where this goes and what it goes to the previous owner cut it from the ecu loom its white with a red stripe

Best of luck re-wiring the car. That is not one of my favorite jobs to do, but bringing it back to life will be a good project.

Picked this up for the donor for my hatch I kinda overpayed 1200 but in NE Hondas are like gold or something so it was the cheapest I could find and runs great tho and is a complete change over so I thought it would be a little cheaper then just buying a swap
