Default d16z6 into an EF swap questions

okay i just picked up a Z6 for $60 lol, si i figured i would put it in my wagon. It's an 89 wagon that is currently DPFI. i am just gonna reuse the tranny til i can find an SI tranny. i have a obd0-obd1 conversion harness so i can run my p28 but have some questions on the rest of the wireing. i seen a site where a guy used the z6 harness and just repinned the plugs by the fuse box in the engine bay, looks hella complicated though. is that the only way? is there any easier way to wire it up or any tips you can give?

thanks

you have to convert it to mpfi first to use the obd0-obd1 harness
unless you get the underdash hardness and engine bay harness.

was worried somebody would say that, really don't want to spend the 300 on it though. guess i'll think about either doing it myself or paying him to do it.

wiring is 99 percent why swaps dont run right. either research and do alot of homework or just pay 300. Is 300 really that much for plugging in clips and going


I think not



sorry china

IMO the money for the Rywire setup is well worth it

I did my mpfi conversion and it ran perfect.
i was going to go obd1 but then i decided to stay with my a6 because who needs v-tec anyways?
so i sold my conversion harness to a friend
It cant be that bad.
I like to wire ---- tho
I personally can send 300 bills on something i know i can do myself but thats just how i am.

If you dont like to read and look at diagrams go to rywire.

i already have one of those. some reason i thought there was more to it since it is goign obd1 and not just a plain mpfi conversion.
