Hello, i have a b16a2 engine whit a OBD2B ecu (from a CIvic '99 SI), i want to swap to a '94 civic DX. I know the '94 is OBD1 but, i want to use the ODB2b ECU(only because i have 1), i can use all the wire from the '94 DX????, i think i can't because '94 DX is OBD1, a good solution will be swap all the wire from a civic '99 SI???
PLZ HELP!!???!??
:( :( :???:

You'll spend more money trying to keep OBD2 than converting OBD1. All you need is an OBD1 ECU (P30 or chipped P28) and a OBD2 to OBD1 conversion harness

yeah man stay obd1, less hassle, and it will make the swap easier...you can use all stock harnesses...the harness on the b16a2 motor, and your cars stock harnes...just buy a 150-200 jumper and your fine

is hard to get another ecu, because i live in south america, here hondas are 1.6 NON-vtec, all honda come from japan not from U.S.A.
i will need to travel to U.S.A. and buy a ecu and a conversion harnees... but i will have problems to import the parts... not to mention government is not selling U.S. $, because a economic problem.. is a hard live in Venezuela

Your pretty much screwed then........ the only way you could do it like you said is to use the whole 99-00 si wire harness witch is going to be the biggest b***h in the world...... it is almost impossible to change out a complete wiring harness by yourself......if you went this rought then you would have to pay to get it done........ If i was you I would try to go through skunk2 and get an obd2-obd1 conversion harness and try as hard as you can to track down a obd1 b16a ecu.........trust me it would be so much easier
