quick b16 question

[natt2000]

hey guys! i was just wondering, what would i need to make an obd0 b16 work with an obd1 harness? thanks for all your help!

nothing just plug the obd1 harness into the obd0 motor

easiest way is to purchase a jumper harness from obd0 to obd1. just google a jumper harness for your year car and model. idk what brands make them so im sure someone else will jump in and give you brands of some sort

nothing just plug the obd1 harness into the obd0 motor

or you could do that cause he knows hell of a lot more than i do lol.:shock:

you need a thing to convert the dizzy wires though (if using obd0 dizzy) theres a jumper for that. You will also need an obd1 ecu

 

[natt2000]

yes, i understand i need to switch the dizzy to obd1, but from there i just plug in the obd1 harness and obd1 comp?

 

[Samurai_Blue]

yes and run the vtec wires if necessary

 

[natt2000]

would an obd0 b16 work with an obd0 b18 wiring harness and a b16 ecu? assuming both are usdm.

 

[ryukkid]

If it's a b16a which is obd0 then yes you can use b18 harness just have to runs wires for vtec

jdm/usdm motors dont matter, however the harnesses do matter as the harness is opposite because of the rhd

I am going to come up with an obd write up lol. The year of the motor does not effect the obd in any way. All OBD is, is your distributor, injectors, wiring, ecu and sometimes alternator (obd2 has square plug). So if you want to put an obd2 b16 in your obd0 car and keep it obd0 for instance all you do is use parts from an obd0 jdm b16. If you want to convert you obd0 or obd2 car to obd1 for tuning purposes then you need a jumper harness.

OBD> Match ecu, harness, distributor, injector plugs/injectors
