hey a mate here has an 88dx (australian) 5spd and wants to buy my engine (ZC) ...hes just wondering if itd be a direct bolt in?? and also are there any other major hassles?

thanks guys

 

yeah he has 2 injetors and your ZC has 4. he must switch. that is the only difference. good luck.

he needs 89 teg ecu and an injector resistor and some good
instuctions....

Yes he can use your zc ecu. Here is a very good article that details the entire process. http://hybrid2.honda-perf.org/tech/4gdxtozc.html

The ZC will bolt right into the DX chassis and will even use the DX transaxle. But, your friend will have to convert from DX DPFI (2 fuel injectors) to MPFI (4 fuel injectors like an Si or HF). The distributor wiring is a little different than the SOHC Si, though. You can change the DX harness to work with MPFI and the ZC ECU will plug into the same harness end (but will not work properly unless you have converted the harness to MPFI specifications). This link should have all of the info on the conversion: http://dmoore.com/crx/zc-dx-swap.htm
