ok guys i have a problem. i have a 1991 honda civic dx. its ALL STOCK (its my gas milage car) anyways it didnt pass smog. i did a compression check and 3/4 the cylinders are good (there was a dead one on the last cylinder) anyway. so i have decided to just get a new motor. however i made a booboo lol..
the motor i got was the D15Z1. the one that is in my car is the D16y1/2/3/4/5 (not sure exactly... its the non vtec 91 dx (dual point) one) anyways here smy problem. i have to have a car that will pass smog.. thats all i care about. so being that the z1 motor is obd1 and i have an obd0 car what should i do? i cant just swap the mani over can i? (cuase its got the vtec solenoid/obd1 dizzy) or should i just get the obd1 stuff (ecu and harness) and swap it in that way?..
what all would i need to swap it over? how much would it cost and would it really be worth ti?.
i paid 150 for the motor.. all i want is a STOCK motor so i can pass smog.
or should i just keep tryin to find a dual point motor
let me know what you guys thing.. thanks
