convert to mpfi and obd1...then you will need swap mounts,shift linkage,axles,ecuand s ome other small things

Vegetaman111 · 09-24-2009, 11:40 PM

Will the obd 1 harness plugs be thesame from d to b?

Vegetaman111 · 09-25-2009, 02:39 AM

Also, just curious, which direction would you guys go? buy the car and slowly build the engine or buy the engine swap and start building it?

INJEN78 · 09-25-2009, 11:12 AM

i do not know about that...but do you have the car??

Bobby17772 · 09-25-2009, 11:15 AM

personally I kind of do both, I slightly build the engine that's in the car, but I also build a better engine on the side to drop in for when I'm done being slow lol

Vegetaman111 · 09-25-2009, 01:16 PM

my buddy owns it right now. it was mine but i only bought it for him then he faulted on payments to the guy so i am thinking about buying it.

Bobby17772 · 09-25-2009, 02:33 PM

depending on how much and what the body looks like it may be a good deal

INJEN78 · 09-25-2009, 04:50 PM

yea maybe.get some pix...and how much does he want?>

Vegetaman111 · 09-26-2009, 01:45 AM

he wants 800.oo but he blew the tranny. it has ls mirrors, seats, and dash plus trying to get the gsr blades with it. may offer 600.oo because he is tight on cash.

INJEN78 · 09-26-2009, 11:02 AM

fuck that he wants waaaay to much with how much is wrong with it...tell him $500

Bobby17772 · 09-26-2009, 11:20 AM

or try to trade him something for it, because I only paid 500 for mine and it was in pretty good shape and ran like a dream.

Vegetaman111 · 09-26-2009, 03:29 PM

his buddy has a built ls head with all skunk2 valvetrain for sale for 300.oo but im gonna try and talk him down to 200.oo because he didnt build the engine with a torque wrench which scares me : /

INJEN78 · 09-26-2009, 04:00 PM

jus an ls head??? you can torque it all down yourself..

Bobby17772 · 09-26-2009, 04:27 PM

if he can prove that it's all skunk2 then go for it, saves you money in the long run, but if he can't..at least check it out to see if any of it is after market

Vegetaman111 · 09-27-2009, 12:40 AM

ok, so i got some even better news. 89 crx si with a d16a6 all blacked out on coilovers and fat fives. yellow interior (dash, center console, steering wheel, etc) with oil pressure guage, water temp gauge and voltage gauge for... wait for it.... 850.oo! ready for the bad part? he lost the keys to it. the title is clear in his name so it isnt stolen but i have to buy a new steering column. or maybe a push button start but i dont wanna be ricey. everyone was dogging me for wanting to go push button. why is that so bad? anyways, back to the point, so it is already mpfi, but is it obd1?

Bobby17772 · 09-27-2009, 10:26 AM

well even with a push button I believe you still have to have a key to turn on the 12v source. and most of the time cars (besides new ones) that have push button are more easily stolen. and I don't think that you would have to buy a new steering column just a new ignition, they aren't that much

INJEN78 · 09-27-2009, 11:03 AM

word you can get a new tumbler(the key thing) for fairly cheap..i had to do one on my rex it was 3 bolts..
i think its a good deal..depending on the rust..but id clean that interior up before anything..

Vegetaman111 · 10-05-2009, 02:11 AM

ok guys, havent been around so i thought i would update you all. had a really bad week. I went to the hospital 3 times (2 for mrsa and one for slicing my finger open to the bone in which i sat in the hospital for 4 hours only for them to glue it together), my 240sx drift car project was totalled by a tree falling on it and guess what? no insurance because it isnt street legal. I lost hours at work because district is dumber than kanye mixed with alcohol. But then I got this wierd deal yesterday morning. My buddy with the 91 hatch called and said he needs it gone. so, 200.oo later i bought it back. I have the complete mpfi conversion with it, ls mirrors, dash, and seats, new tierod ends included, bought bumpers, bumper trim, and side molding trim for 70.oo and got a mini me swap for my d15b7 (just need a vtec solenoid and subharness) for 125.oo and got a guy interested in trading his crx si with d16a6 swap for it. question I have, is should i keep my hatch and build it (going LS or possibly g23 if my budget allows) or trade for the crx. I just want to hear some swap views for this now. Be it a swap for the hatch or for the crx. Any opinion is a good one. thanks in advance guys.

INJEN78 · 10-05-2009, 11:00 AM

def. get the crx..im pretty sure its a little lighter..
and its already an si so itsm uch easier to swap..
your from ct so i might know whos car it is

RoughKnight · 10-05-2009, 11:45 AM

Go with the crx. It's a good platform and has lots of support for alot of different build paths.

Vegetaman111 · 10-05-2009, 09:35 PM

actually i am from ohio. and i decided as soon as i get the chance i am trading the car for a crx. the guy i bought the hatch off the first time had a crx and stop beside me and my fiancee today then took off on only 10lbs of boost so now my fiancee wnats me to build one to spank him. shouldnt be a problem, haha. so honestly what do you think as far as values. should i do a straight trade for a crx with what i have or what?

INJEN78 · 10-05-2009, 09:54 PM

cant rlly tell ya without pix and info on your car and a crx your trading for

Vegetaman111 · 10-07-2009, 12:46 AM

my car has not one drop of rust, mpfi converted d15b7 swapped with a d16a6 tranny, ls mirrors, ls seats and simple cold air intake. all together have 300.oo in it. what is something like this worth with not a single drop of rust?

Bobby17772 · 10-07-2009, 10:16 AM

it all depends on the area. because around here it would probably go any where from 1200-1800 maybe more but it all depends on who's selling it if you know them if they need money, just a few a bunch of things, but thats about the average for around here

INJEN78 · 10-07-2009, 11:30 AM

yea..no rust is a good thing..rlly all depends what someone is willing to pay
