I have been a Honda fan for years and have never actually purchased one. I have been addicted to the CRX ever since I first saw one and knew I would have one some day.
I luckily found a 89 dx in fantastic condition for $300, brought it home knowing the stock D15b2 with 150k and was started 10 years ago but has been sitting in a garage since then and I just don't want to put the effort in to get it started.
I opted for the next best thing which was a D16a6 I found online the other day that was pulled from a 88 si and I found later after I bought it that it had already gone through a vtec mini me Z6 swap.
I have done engine swaps before but never like this. I have searched the web for countless hours on what to do and only get general answers that I cannot understand fully.
NOTICE: The vtec hookup is unnecessary if possible, I just want to get the engine in the car and running at the moment, I can hook it up at a later time if I want.
Things I have for the swap:
-d15b2 harness (I know I need to do mpfi swap)
-p28 virgin ecu
-obd-obd1 jumper
-Engine of course
-Z6 dizzy
Things I do not have:
-a6 harness
Is there anything I am missing? Is this even possible with only using the d15b2 harness?
Any help would be greatly appreciated, I understand these questions are asked every day and I hope I was specific as possible to help narrow down what needs to be done.
Last note: SORRY for the wall of text, I tried to space it out so it is easier to read unlike some of the posts I see here.
Thank you very much in advance,
Bob
