- Mon Oct 13, 2008 12:31 pm #74089 check your local state and govt. rules now i do recall if you are living where you say your living this swap is impossible dont even do it.....

Since in the U.s. its illegal/or not really illegal more against the law and it wont passinspection to swap in a motor that is older than the car itself if for instance you have a 96+ car since those are obd2 cars it will most likely throw a nice code and wont pass inspection.......

ex: you have a 1996 civ now any motor 96+ will be ok to swap 95 on the other hand no

But on the lines of it being possible sure its simple and d motor will bolt right into that of a civic just gotta do some mount swapping.....

But yea correct me if im wrong on this point but im pretty sure im correct

You just going to need a new ecu and a few other things... your giong to either need a new harness or just know wiring good because the d15z1 uses a 5 wire O2 sensor.... the motor you have that blew probably only has 4.
