okay...i have the D15b2 i think it is motor...which really sucks...im leanin towards a d15b vtec....i kno my tranny will hook right up and all that but....what else will i need....them motor does not have a ECU...where would i pick one of these up....also how the hell would i wire this stuff...sorry im only good with body work not motors but thank god for honda-tech!!...also i would like anyone with the d15b vtec in their CRX to post some pics so i can see how it would look thanks

Body is primed paint next week
then teh rims

 

ok before u do this i want to warn u the total cost comes out to around 1000
u will need ECU, driver side engine mount, wiring harness, distributor, and fuel rail
u will have to rewire the entire dash also to convert it to obd1
i didn't even attempt to do this and i wouldnt advise it unless u hav extensive electrical experience a shop in covina, ca called Honda feind can do this for around 200 bucks
i didn't kno all this till after the d15 vtec was sitting in my engine bay where it has sat for two months i wouyld just go zc dohc bcuz its easier and cheaper bcuz u can get the ECU and wiring harness from an 88-91 civic/crx Si at the junkyard
but if u hav the engine already good luck

 

do d15 vtec turbo.



not my car btw: it was member: eg6turbo

u dont have to re-wire the entire dash, just do a obd0 to obd1 swap and add vtec wiring, done

Yea its actually pretty easy.

 

you'll also need a p28 ecu with a vtec activation device or you can get a pm6 modded at zdyne or hondata to activate vtec. it did'nt cost me a 1000$. you can use the si dist.. i've got some pics that show how to use it if needed. as stated it's a pretty easy swap.

If you doing a OBD1 swap just look for a JDM P08 ecu because thats what came with the D15B in japan

 

Could you send me pics? Karbin_14@yahoo.com
I will be doing the swap soon, just want to throughly understand and get all parts before I get the engine so there are no surprises.

 

Why would you need adriver side engine mount.....

because the drivers side motor mount bracket is differant on an eg. when i did my sohc vtec zc swap i had to swap brackets from an ef motor.

hey hilton aka shaz i told you i would come over and help you out with the swap its easy as hell and so is the mpfi swap use the 5 speed 92-95 p28 ecu best bet and get your self a obd0-ob1 jumper harness and ill show yeah how to do it all

 

im looking todo this swap too, so where do i get the mount that will fit right....

 

all you have to do is take the actual moutn thats bolted onto the jdm engine by the timing belt off and put the one from your old engine and it wi ll go right in!
