i own a 1995 civic hatch and i bought a 1.6 zc engine were the hell do i find the right wiring harness for the ole girl??new and numb sorry fellas..... will a harness fit from a 1991 civic hatch the zc is a sohc tyhanks a million for your time

 

what ZC motor did you buy? If I'm not mistaken there are more then one. If it's a D16 ZC with sohc vtec then it should be the same as d16z6.

 

its a non vtech sohcd16.z my civic has a 1.5 its a vx

 

use the stock harness from your car.

 

computer too??

 

use a p28 (imo) what ecu are you running now?

 

There are two zc motors, ones a 1.5 sohc vtec, and the other is a 1.6 dohc non vtec.

You may want to look at the engine code on the block and find out what it says. If its a non vtec motor you can use your harness and run your stock computer. If it is a vtec motor then youll have to use a p28 and run vetec wires.

You might have a D16z6, which is not a zc motor, but it is vtec, and you would need to use the p28 ecu, use your stock harness and add vtec wires.

 

zc motors are non vtec (all of them)

 

http://www.hondaswap.com/forum...29825

there you will find that NO zc motor ever came with V-TECH

 

oh btw, no matter what, use your stock wiring harness w/ or w/o vtec or crap, you will need the following though...
distributor for obd1
injectors
and other such obd1 parts that you find your stock wiring harness will not plug into on the zc.

 

yes it did retard. i got a sohc ZC vtec. thanks! and its not a minime

quiet, and dont speak useless uninformative information

there are 3 zc's

DOHC zc
sohc zc
sohc zc vtec.

thanks

yO get ur **** straight i Gots a SOHC ZC VTEC in one of my crx's

 

I thought the JDM 1.5 Sohc VTEC was also a ZC, I dunno.
Look and see what engine code is on the block and let us know so we can help out a little better.

Oh and why would he use a p28 (Which is a SOHC vtec computer) on a non vtec motor?

check the site, lets see some proof there were zc's that had vtec, show me something. quiet, and dont speak useless uninformative information

 

because the p28 is easily progammable to almost anything..

 

ive seen them in person at the place here in boise where i bought my d15b vtec. and my buddy just ordered one from here, ive spent like an hour on the phone with them confirming there is a obd1 vtec zc, here ya go.http://www.ardperformance.com/...index go to the jdm engines, under honda/acura, second one down

 

there are three general zc's
1:dohc obdo 1.6, came in the 85-87 jdm civic and crx si's, and 87-89 tegs
2:sohc obdo 1.6, came in the 88-91 civic and crx si" fuel injected, and 85-87 civics, carb'd
3bd1 sohc vtec 1.6, came in 92-95.5 civics.

 

Ok I think he may have a D16a6 which is a 1.6 sohc non vtec and is ZC. Its out of a 88-91 civic and also in the civic wagon. Heres a web site I found containing alot of engine codes and stuff.
http://www.cncmotors.com/price.asp?make=honda

 

the sohc zc is exactly like the d16a6, but with a slightly hotter cam. thats it, its a good motor, did one in my 94 lx, and it hauled.

 

just becuase an engine isn't lested on that site dosn't mean it dosn't exist. like the f23a1 isn't on that list. but it's in all the 98-02 4cly accords.

alright alright i have been owned thanks for the info tho i guess you learn somethin every day.

 

And heres another website showing the 1.5 Sohc VTEC ZC http://asia.vtec.net/article/d15b/

 

Yeah, i learned a few things my self.

 

is the "d15b" a "real" ZC in that it has the "ZC" engine stamp on it?
