Dedicated DA9 Q & A thread

[tseesinngwailo]

Hi All,

I have a 1991 DA9 Integra with a B16A, complete with the JDM wiring looms, and I believe, a OBD1 ECU, can anyone tell me where the plug is that needs to be shorted so that I can check/adjust the timing? it's never been done since my conversion, and I just want to check.

Thanks

man that exhaust and raspy.

sounds kool tho

tseesin what timing are u talking about??? ignition??? or cam? both of these can be done with either the timing marks on the pulleys or with the dizzy and a timing light....

the only timing controlled by the ecu is ignition timing... and the advance for the ignition..

but the plugs r under the glove box.


the ecu is under the carpet on the same side.


a bit of constructive critism on the laps.. u shouldnt back off the throttle on and off mid way around a corner dnt let the throttle on til u know u wont have to get back off it....


just somethin to think about

Hey A-Man, was talking about the ignition timing, but ECU-Man has answered it i think, I just wanted to check my ignition timing is where it should be.

guys what do you thinkg about reseting springs? im thinking of resetting(compress) my king springs lows (rears)cause i just called up a place($60 bucks for rears) and they said its not such a good idea because its FWD. What do you all think?

[A-man]

how much r new ones??? i dont think theres anything wrong with it.. is that 60 bucks removed reset and then refitted? thats not a bad price but i thought a set of springs were only a little more then that fitted... i know the tyre places around in perth charge around 300 350 for new springs.... and fitted

[kikxz]

oh nah ive already got king spring lows in my car but im not to happy with my rear height. Thats $60 for me to take out my rear springs and to hand it over the the guys and then they reset the spring rate or whatever they do. If they took it out reset it etc and done it again it would be around 120ish

plug you were looking for is the gray plug near the heater blower its got a grreen and white wire and a brown wire.

if you car is a genuine xsi it should be obd0 (look for the pr3 code on the ecu)
the only 1st gen b16a in the integra was the b17a which only the americans had. that motor was obd1, but even then that was pretty rare.
