Cx or EX/SI wiring harness?
 
So I bought a cx with a z6 swap in it and the guys before me hacked it up pretty bad. So I want to clean this thing up and get it running properly.

Here is what I have:
95 cx civic
p28 ECU stock
D16z6
cx transmision
cx wiring harness

Now Vtec needs to be wired up and I think the oil pressure switch or w/e the green plug is, near the vtec solenoid needs to be hooked up along with some other crap I imagine. I haven't fully gone through the car, but I plan on pulling the motor probably.

My question: Should I stick with the stock cx wiring harness and just find the plugs I need and wire it up? Or should I just buy a z6 harness and install that? Would that even work properly with the underdash harness? This is my first major project here so I am learning as I go, just looking for a little guidance. Thanks guys.

Rewire it yourself. Buying entire motor harnesses is risky b/c you have no idea if the harness has problem, and they usually sell for a LOT.

Even if you did buy the harness for the vtec motor, you would still need to run wires to the ecu.

i would just swap the harness if its fucked... and i have...

you can swap damn near any harness into that car.. i have a 00 GSR harness in my 93 CX... you just need to run the extra wires from the ECU to the strut tower plug... there is a stickied thread at the top of the 92-00 Civic Forum on H-T with all the pin locations....

Haynes/Chiltons books are useless...go with the free online Honda Shop Manuals on PDF...they are great.
