Engine swap questions

[shima60]

Hi

Can i put a obd-0 engine into a obd-1 car without changing any of the wiring loom?

or would it have to be a complete engine and wiring swap over?

what would i need to change a D16y8 into a D15b7 car?

Cheers in advance

to do this swap you would need to use and obd1 dizzy and obd1 injectors you don't have to change the harness

cool. well it would be going into my coupe so harness is already in. just need to map the ecu.

here are the engines.

D15



D16



D15



D16




not much of a difference really just the o2 sensor looks different to me

will it be a basic engine in engine out jobby?

cheers

the d16 will drop right in.. tranny will bolt up too..

you can swap a ton of d16 and d15 parts.

your axles, motor mounts, tranny, shift linkage, intake/exhaust manifold, itll all work as long as you have the new head and block.

your gonna need the new ecu though, and your harness will work.

P.S.
what you referred to as being "wire loom" is called a wire harness. wire "loom" is something that electricians use, and alot of tuners use it as well, to wrap a group of wires together. it looks like the tube that comes out of your clothing dryer in your house, just, much smaller than that.
