Well i am about ready to order this motor here in a little bit. Wana do something different. I got a 94 LS. I heard it will bolt up just right but what else do i need for the swap. Motor comes with everything such as ecu (p73) and tranny and all that. What kind of wiring conversion harness do i need or do i even need one. I just want to know how am i going to make this work right. thanks

 

If the ECU is OBD-1, you'll only need to run three wires. If the ECU is OBD-2, you'll need to get an OBD-1 VTEC ECU and then run three wires. You'll need to run the wire for the VTEC solenoid, the pressure switch, and one chassis ground. As far as installation, everything is a direct bolt in.

Please search next time.

 

ok thank u finally someone gives me a straight answer. OK what do i run the wires to and what other ecu from what car do i have to get?

 

And what conversion harness do i need?

 

If you run an OBD-1 ECU, then you don't need a conversion harness. All of your wiring questions can be answered in the hybrid forum.

As for an ECU, you'll need an OBD-1 P73, P30, P72, chipped P28, or Hondata. I don't recommend using the P30 or P72 without chipping, but they will get the car to run. If I were you, I'd go ahead with Hondata.

 

it should fit cool, jus need to get a type r tranny...good luck man..peace

 

i have the tranny with it and everything. Well it comes with the p73. So that means its just all plug and play?

Someone who knows his stuff.

 

As far as the engine goes it will fit perfectly into your engine bay.

 

yea i know the engine will fit perfect... just the wiring is the only thing i am worried about.. I need to knwo exactly what to do so i can tell my guy whos doin the swap for me..

 

You'll also run into another problem JDM B18c's R spec. Come with no VTEC OIL PRESURE switch you should get a chiped ECU that eliminates the oil presure switch and knock sensor with that all you need to run is one wire. The one for the VTEC SOLENOID. I know that the B18c R spec comes with no VTEC OIL PRESURE switch because i sell JDM motors and i have 1 96 spec ITR motor with no oil presure switch i also have 2 99's with no oil presure switch B16B's comes with no oilpresure switch also i have 3 of those engines so theres the prove.

 

shouldn't the guy doing the swap know what he's doing rather than getting tips from you, who in turn are asking anonymous guys on the internet..?

not what you'd call good planning...

 

Its called the guy doesnt know about jdm swaps!! So how would i have to go to get this ecu chipped???
