After all the issues I've been having lately (including not being to drive my car right now because it is all funked up for some reason) I am just going to replace my engine with a deal I got for a '93 DX engine.

Question is ........ I am not swapping out the Si ECU, so what do I need to replace on the OBD-1 engine to get it to run right with the OBD-0 ECU?

I figured I would have to switch the injectors and the dizzy. Anything else??

 

rick whats wrong with the std motor almost DED??? just take the a6 intake manifold off put it on the new head and ull be set what issues are u having last time i saw the thing it was purring like a kitten....hit me up if u need help again

 

yeah just use your obd0 engine wiring harness and sensors.along with the obd0 injectors. oh yeah and the dizzy.

 

only thing is the dizzy wont bolt on u may have to rig it up like the z6 swap....im me for help unless u wanna use ur y7 head again so u dont have to rig it up....

 

Dude, its acting all funky ......... not too mention it has always burned oil. I think that has totally clogged the cat., but as you know .......... it is too damn cold to get under the car and break the 13 year old rusty bolts loose .....

I'm going to get a new cat. and exhaust as part of fixing the car. But for the price I'm getting this D15, I can't pass it up. (I'll actually be up in your neck of the woods to pick it up).

I already replaced the injectors, plugs, and re-did a bunch of wiring, and it is still rythmically hissing (thought it was the injectors, it wasn't). It can barely rev, and if the engine is cold it constantly stalls out.

And the worst part of it is ....... it isn't throwing any codes ............. so I have no idea what the hell is going on.

I know the bottom end needs to be rebuilt, so I said f--k it, and am getting the engine. Best Si engine I could find was for $250. And I am getting this newer DX engine for less than half that.

I am looking for a DX/Si tranny though .....

 

And I will probably pull the '00 head off and sell it after swapping out the engine .....
