OBD0 to OBD1 help.
 

I have used the search. I have my 90 CRX with the A6. I am converting to OBDI at Chris's recommendation. I have a P05 ecu on order. I am getting the conversion harness from Chris. My questions are:

Do all SOHC OBD I distributors work? I have the A6 now but am going to be using a Y8. If I get a non vtec OBDI distor can it work in my A6 and the Y8?

Can I just use the 1 wire O2 I have now or should I convert the P05 to VTEC and use the 4 wire O2?

Any other wiring issues I should be aware of before starting this? I am just going to get the distro harness from Chris too.

Thanks
David

Hard to believe no one knows this or cares to share.

i believe the y8 distributor will work and mount with 2 bolts. I know that a 92-95 non-vtec distributor will mount on your a6 with 3 bolts (tried it myself before). i'm running a po5 chipped in a 91 crx hf with obdo-obd1 conversion but haven't done the vtec conversion and yes i am running the 1 wire o2 because i didn't feel like runinng the extra wires for a 4 wire and kept it simple. ;D

I know the A6 distro works on the Y8 because Hotrex did it. I'll just get an OBDI non-vtec distro.

not to thread jack but i will be converting to obd I also but i have a dohc zc will the po5 ecu work?

I think the z6 dizzy is the only odd ball one that wont work on a a6 or y8 head. And who runs a O2 sensor anyways? massive sensor disable O0

Re: OBD0 to OBD1 help.
 

all the cool kids disable 02. Ya the z6 is the one that has the different pattern.a6,b7 same pattern

How about the Y8? Josh said he used an A6 on a Y8 head with no problems. I just bought everything to swap over. Just waiting on the parts to come in.

Rumor mill says y8 has the same patterm has the a6 bit I have no first hand experince. If not nothin a little notchin of the mounting holes cant fix

Re: OBD0 to OBD1 help.
 

Josh was 100% sure that he had the A6 distro in CRX with his built Y8. I will end the rumor soon enough!
