hey everybody just wondering on what is needed to do a obd2 to obd1 conversion

 

It'll really help if you tell us your year, make, model, ECU and engine you'll be using. But in general:

ECU adapter
Distributor adapter or use certain OBD2 alternators
Alternator adapter or use an OBD2 alternator
Injector adapters or use OBD2 injectors (only certain ones)
Other possible wiring alterations; IAT, IACV, etc

A lot of this will depend on your current setup and vehicle and what engine/ECU combo you'll be using.

 

if your taking a motor out of a obd2 vehicle and putting into a obd1 then just change the distributor,alternator,injectors to obd1 and get a obd1 computer

 

This help thread is full of fail!!!

 

Car/engine information?

 

Does OP mean an OBD1 engine into an OBD2 car or an OBD2 engine into an OBD1 Car?

Perspective can mean everything sometimes....

 

FTFY

 

It's a 98 Honda civic ex d16y8

Just that the engine busted so I got a Japanese d16a to put into it but the Japanese motor doesn't have a crank sensor so I was wondering if i can just change the set up to obd1

 

Auto? 5spd? What hyr is the d16a? I don't recall d16a being a swap of the obd1 family, only d15's, I could be wrong.

 

its auto and the engine is a 98 d16a vtec motor obd2 but doesn't have a crank sensor so im trying to find a way to override it

What about the tranny? Is it an jdm obd2 auto? You might be able to get away with it by running the obd1 setup. I've read on d-series.org that someone was able to use an auto obd1 ecu in an obd2 auto.
