I can get you some info on the swap. Im currently doing the same thing. I have a 97Ti with a 92m50 Non-vanos. You snip about 4-6 wires and reroute like 2 or 3 of them, then get rid of all your OBDII stuff. __________________ 1995 Hellrot Clubsport 318ti -Gone 1996 Schwartz II Sport 357ti - 5.7L V8 LS1/6 1997 Moregrun Metallic 318ti - Gone

Youll be doing the same exact stuff as me, but using a red label 413 DME. __________________ 1995 Hellrot Clubsport 318ti -Gone 1996 Schwartz II Sport 357ti - 5.7L V8 LS1/6 1997 Moregrun Metallic 318ti - Gone

Blue- Doesn't Ohio have emissions testing? Or is that only in the major metro areas. I know some people that live in Cleveland and they have to do inspections. | | | | | 10-05-2007, 04:22 PM | #7 | | Senior Member Join Date: May 2006 Location: 43609 Posts: 3,425 |
We have very limited inspections, and thats only when you buy a car, other than that, there arent any here. __________________ 1995 Hellrot Clubsport 318ti -Gone 1996 Schwartz II Sport 357ti - 5.7L V8 LS1/6 1997 Moregrun Metallic 318ti - Gone

yes i am using the red label 413... what wires do i cut? | | | | | 10-05-2007, 04:39 PM | #9 | | Senior Member Join Date: May 2006 Location: 43609 Posts: 3,425 |
   It rehashes itself, so dont get confused. Cut #7 on X20 Main harness - Mine was Lime Green Cut #8 on X20 Main harnees, attach to #1 on the X6031 harness - Forgot what color that was on my car, but it attaches to the Grey wire on the smaller connector. Next steps are just for the X6031 Smaller Harness. Wire #14, White and Black stripe must be connected to the Blue clipped harness behind the instrument cluster. All i did was run a wire from #2 wire on the Blue connector, for the cluster, to #14 on the X6031 harness. Not sure if i actually cut the line at #14, or just spliced it...im sure i cut and wired it to it. Other than that, there are no other mods to the harness that i know of. __________________ 1995 Hellrot Clubsport 318ti -Gone 1996 Schwartz II Sport 357ti - 5.7L V8 LS1/6 1997 Moregrun Metallic 318ti - Gone

Excellent... I'll be starting my M50 swap soon, and this was a concern of mine. Thanks, fellas!

Are those the steps for modifying an OBD-II harness to work on an OBD-I engine? Or is it for modifying an OBD-I harness to work in an OBD-II chassis? | | | | | 10-08-2007, 08:56 PM | #12 | | Senior Member Join Date: May 2006 Location: 43609 Posts: 3,425 |
OBDI engine+harness to OBDII chassis. __________________ 1995 Hellrot Clubsport 318ti -Gone 1996 Schwartz II Sport 357ti - 5.7L V8 LS1/6 1997 Moregrun Metallic 318ti - Gone

Regarding the last step for the road speed sensor, I am basically running a jumper from the cluster to pin #14. I am not to completely disconnect anything, right? | | | | | 11-14-2007, 01:19 PM | #15 | | Senior Member Join Date: May 2006 Location: 43609 Posts: 3,425 |
If im not mistaken, we just jumped this wire. If it needs to be cut and hardwired, its not difficult to do. __________________ 1995 Hellrot Clubsport 318ti -Gone 1996 Schwartz II Sport 357ti - 5.7L V8 LS1/6 1997 Moregrun Metallic 318ti - Gone
