cant wait to get it finished..still a long way off though , but need to find out how to run the obd2a loom first, really want to stick with it to run the ek9 ecu and keep the vtec controller, not having alot of luck so far :(
 
all u should need is an adapter harness for your ecu? once ur ecu plugs in ur laughin
 
well unfortunately icant use ma old obd0 loom as its been very badly cut and "repaired", injectors are cracked and theres also some very poor connections in places, my car was a d16a9 before aswell so i think if i was going to use and obd0 it would have to be a loom of a vtec model, trying to fiqure out how to use the full obd2a loom but my back up plan is to get crx vtec clocks, ed9 clocks are missing a plug, and get the conversion stuff for it
 
quick update, sorry iv not been posting alot to you guys following the build, been looking for another job so its kinda taking priority the last week or 2.

i have no pics as yet but i will be uploading some tomorrow night,
got ma engine out and engine bay has had a quick paint for now. still made sure it was a good coat though, and iv started to strip down and clean the b16 and get it ready to get painted aswell. fitted my other dash but..unfortunately i had no choice but to cut it more than i really wanted to :/ and..scrapped a lot of paint off the cage while putting the new dash in. spent week painting it and making sure it was decent but now i need to pretty much re do the front of it :(

other than that its just been small things that i needed to do. cut mt rear bumper to start doing some work to that and i had a j's rep lip on an sir bumper, cut the fog light flanges on that to fit it on my 16v bumper

il get some pics up tomorrow night :)
