what wiring harness are you guys running on your 89 civic si hatch with a d16y8 swap? change of connectors?

would a pg7 work on this setup?

what computer is best?

if i use the stock si tranny which clutch setup do i buy? for the tranny of for the motor?

which dizzy do i use?

thanks in advance

anyone?

 

Are you planning on staying OBD 2? if not, use a P28.

 

planning to stay obd0

 

jsut use your stock ecu and runa vtec controller. i just finished it and its easy as hell. you have to use stock dizzy and intake manifold.

 

use your original engine harness, and use the y8 harness for plugs.

get the clutch according to tranny. you can use the y8 pressure plate and flywheel.

i would run a p28 on that setup for best results. or a chipped pm6 with vtec controller.

good luck

 

slowcrxsi........when you say stock dizzy...stock as off of the a6 or z6?


thanks for the info...

im gettin a code 4.
and im running out of things to do. resistance is within spec.

 

He is referring to the a6 dizzy, thats cause you are staying obd0. I would recommend obd1 swap though. My car doesnt run that great and I am using my stock pm6 with my obd0 dizzy on a z6. Timing adjustability isnt all that great. check out Boomslang.us for a obd0-obd1 conversion harness.. get a 4 wire o2 sensor and a p28 ecu... that will pull the most out of that motor.

Clutch... according to tranny.

Good luck with this swap, It runs noticably better once done

 

thanks harry_randal. i think i am going to go obd1 i cant get my car to run right at the moment....idle sucks and at 4500 to 5000 rpm is misses sick.

what harness will i need.... 92-95 ex harness??

thanks

Nope. You can use the Y8 manifold. Just extend the MAP sensor wiring and run the A6 injectors, or the Y8 injectors if you want to remove the injector resistor box

 

That is a obd0-obd1 conversion harness... it is found here

Like Mr. S said use the intake manifold that is for the motor, the injectors that are for the motor (solder the wires together where the injector resister box is, the newer year injectors have built in resistors), a 4 wire o2 sensor and a p28 ecu, this will bring the best out of that motor
