It would be easier to put a D16Y8 into it... it's basically the same thing, just newer.

Very possible and not complicated. Use the distributor and injectors off of your motor, change the oil pump from the hx motor onto the z6 along with the crank position sensor. It will run fine, had to do the same with my sir2 into my 97 ex. Obd1 motors don't have the crank position sensor and therefore their oil pumps don't have the bolt holes for the sensor. Swap the pump(or get a new one from a y8) and the sensor and it will run your ecu or a y8 ecu like a champ.
