Converting to an EFI e16

SuperHatch · Dec 10th, 2002, 03:53 PM

Alright, I wanna convert to EFI.. and I got a general knowledge of what needs to be done, but my friend says that I'm going to need a cam position sensor and all sorts of other stuff... But i'm wondering has anyone out there done it, can you just use the EFI manifold from the E15T and get a different EFI harness from a different car with EFI? Help me out here!!

Heh.. The E16 engines have had crank angle sensors since 1984... But yeah, shouldn't be too hard to convert. You'll need a high pressure electric fuel pump, the wiring harness from an '88 Sentra, the manifold/TBI from the '88 Sentra, and misc other parts. Oh, and of course the brain.. I'm not sure why you'd want to do this though... Are you planning to super or turbocharge? That's about the only reason I could think of to convert..

***** No one has ever done it. So, no one can tell you how to accomplish it. I like the idea, of a multi-port E16E engine though. I have thought of using the E15ET intake I have, and adapting it to an E16. Perhaps using a GA16DE ecu and harnesses. Same 1.6 liter engine size. It should be pretty close. but then I came to my senses, and realized if you do all that, just put the whole damn GA16DE in. So that's what I did.

I know I promised you guys some pics of my swap, and I will, as soon as I have the time to get my new camera out of the box, and find out how to use it!

was it that difficult to do the ga16de swap
