Hi all,

I have a 00 GSR and i'm putting in a 97 B18C5, i was wondering if you could tell me what ecu i am supposed to use, and if there are any harnesses i would need. I'm completely lost. From what i hear, I can use the B18c5 ecu that came with the motor, but need an adapter for it to plug into my harness. Any info would be greatly appreciated. If there is another route I can take let me know.

The ecu i have is a OBD2b and the one that came with the motor is an obd2a.

Please help!
Thanks!

I used an obd2b to obd1 harness, and a kenji mugen spec p28 ecu.

 

Well you could get a 1997 P73 Type R ecu, i am selling one for my friend, it will plug directly into your stock harness and work in conjunction with that motor, unless you plan on going OBD1

No it won't, his engine/body harness is for OBD2b, while the 97 P73 ECU is OBD2a, which have totally different plugs.

What he needs is a 00-01 P73 ITR ecu, then it will plug right up.

yea u need to get a OBD2B to OBD2A ECU Harness. Or get a OBD2B to OBD1 harness with a Chipped P28.

 

oh yeah my bad, i didnt notice how it said his car is a 00 GSR, so it is OB2b, hey i have the ECU out my 2000 Type R which will plug right in and work with that motor, its an OBD2b P73 if you are interested, i can send you pics if you'd like

 

Just use the 97 ecu.

 

not to be honest abe or anything but isnt it illegal to swap an older engine into a newer car. not to say that all of my mods are illegal, but if the dot makes me take off my tananbe, i am not out that much. i guess it depends on where you live

did you read the post? He can't use the 97 ECU because his engine and chassis harness is for OBD2b used in 00-01 cars.

Just because i am a NOOB doesnt mean i am a rip off, i have dealed on T-I.net and all are posotive feedbacks and i was letting him know what i have for sale, cause he is in need of it, NOOB or not, i am being a helpful H-T user like we all should be, but yes i understand you are advising him to be careful of scammers, its not nice to point fingers directly at someone, just cause they are a NOOB

That's what I would do.
