Im back..... For those who know me how ya been? For those who dont let me recap.. first 3rd gee in accident and havent been on tha site in a while.
Anyway ? is i got my baby all fixed it just needs tha paint job, i want to do a swap on her so that she is even better when i finally get her back on tha road. Money aint tha problem here that problem is finding someone to do tha swap 4 me. noone wants to touch it cause of it being pre-obd. Is there anyone on tha site that would know of anywhere that i could get this done or if anyone who has done it would like to help a brother out. Oh yah i wanted to swap it to 5 speed also. Any and all suggestions are welcome.

your old nizzle

contact place racing for wire harness to convert to OBD.
if you tell people there is a wire harness they will do it.

Our cars are already OBD. Our OBD is OBD-0. What you need to do is send Place Racing your A20A engine wire harness and the engine wire harness of the B-Series engine. They then put the two together.

so i should contact place racing? Also about tha swap is there a certain place that will perform this for me. I dont want to go to any old speed shop and have them fuck my car up. Will a local shop know what i need for tha swap or should i go to them with all of tha supplies.

If you don't want to deal with the obd and don't mind tuning carbs then i would suggest putting dual dcoe's on and running it. What kinda motor are you putting in it? it will be kinda costly but i think it will be worth it in my car. I'm puttung a gsr with dual dcoe's in my 85 base prelude

well if you want to swap a B16A it will be good with OBD-0, but if you want a B18C1 you will need to convert to OBD-I. I know Matt spent $2,000 of all the wiring for OBD-I but you could do it your self for much cheaper.
