Lightbulb ECU Question...

Ok so my quest continues to figure out whats wrong with my car and fix it.. seems like everytime i figure something out i gotta go back n fix something else. So now its possible that my ECU is damaged from a wreck my question is.. i want to convert my OBDII B20B to OBD1 to eliminate all these bullshit ass problems how would i go about doing that?

You just need an OBD2 to OBD1 adapter harness, and the relevant OBD1 ECU for your engine.

That being said, why do you think going to OBD1 will solve your problems?

To be honest man.. i'm not expecting it to solve my problem but seriously who even likes OBDII these days (when modifying honda's)?? & the thing that gets me is i have a P75 ECU which is OBD1 if i'm not mistaken but my distributor is OBD2 theres no jumper harness unless its soldered or sum shit.. man i dont even kno it all started with a wreck and a bent butterfly in my throttle body.. now all hell broke loose.. shit just trying to set the timing the other night my fuckn ABS, Battery, and check engine light is on... wtf??

Default Re: ECU Question...

well your question was borderline like his vtec ?..... just kidding.

most people swap to obd1 due to tuning issues. nobody wants to tune a ob2 car, to much extra un needed bullshit, secondary o2's etc etc. not even sure if chrome is supported on ob2 cars. or even hondata... aem you can get it obd2 tho.... if i recall correctly

what exactly is done to this motor? is it built? is it stock and swapped into something it wasnt in before? give us some details.
