Ok so heres the thing, i have a 96 integra gsr, i am going to trade shells with my friend who has a 97 ek, it had a ob2-B b16b in it, i want to put my obd2-A b18c1 in it. What would i have to do to the wiring, could i just use my integra harness ? If not what would i have to do?

 

why the hell would u want to trade i think ek's r ugly as shit. u should be able to use the same harness i believe... not 100% positive though.

 

you can use either wiring harness because if he had a vtec model in the car already than it was set up for that motor, unless he had his harness altered and is keeping it with his motor. the only issue would be what ecu would you be using, if you use yours it has the IAB's already in it, if you use his, you will be without unless you use a new I/M, like i did. but you can use either harness

 

well i would use mine, as his revs to 8600 and i dont wanna kill my shit, but if i can use all my wiring its all good....

 

i thought the civic's wireing goes through the firewall? the teg's dosen't.

 

whos hatch are you trading for now derek?

 

Not mine

 

EK's are ugly, keep your teg

 

hey, back off blake

 

Was he running the OBD2b ecu in the 97 civic? If so, he either did some healthy rewiring or he had a conversion harness in it. Both of your setups are OBD2a. You can not interchange the engine harnesses between the Integra and Civic. Depending on the model of the civic he had.....or I guess the engine harness model....you will only need to make minor wiring adjustments. If he has the OBD2a EX civic model engine harness, all the vtec wiring is there. You will only need to add the IAB wiring or swap intake manifolds. If you have a different model engine harness, you will need to add the vtec, etc and also possibly the IACV wire conversion depending on the model.


Says the man who's 900RR will lose to an EK Hb.
