D15b2 - d15b7 - b18a1

[INJEN78]

lol yep..so its obd0 dpfi

 

[D16SiHatch]

then they lied to you, it's still a d15b2

not necessarily. it might still be a d15b7. previous owners might have just swapped over the b2 dizzy and dpfi manifold to the b7.

 

[Bobby17772]

yeah I guess that's true, dumb on the previous owners behalf, but true

 

[INJEN78]

most likely kept the b2...just check the block for the code...

 

[Vegetaman111]

block says b7. i think thats why i dont trust the guy on anything. he said it was swapped, only thing different is the block. its still pretty much a d15b7. anyways, so back to step 1. i am preparing to do a dpfi to mpfi conversion, after that how do i setup for a b series swap? non vtec. obd1 for tuning purposes.

 

[INJEN78]

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

 

[Vegetaman111]

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

 

[Vegetaman111]

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]

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

 

[Bobby17772]

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]

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]

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

 

[INJEN78]

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

 

[Vegetaman111]

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]

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

 

[Bobby17772]

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]

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]

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

 

[Bobby17772]

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]

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?
