If yours is a 16v it has Multi port EFI...the TBI (throttle body injection) does not fit.

the best bet is to use all of the factory components that you can and by the harness if you are like me and hate wiring......

Some times the threads can get a little confusing till you get used to them
- TBI+Throttle Body Injection, came on some Samurai 1.3 engines and Track/Kick 1.6/8 valves
- Multi port EFI came on Track/Kick 1.6/16valve engines and does not swithc with the TBI system

For your easiet swap you will need....
-Transmission adapter
-Complete 1.6/16valve engiine with harness ECU and all the goodies
-Etheir modify the stock 1.6/16valve harness or buy one already modified

Trying to adapt the Throttle body type injection to your 16 valve engine would be a waste of time and cost you horse power.

I love the KISS system and keeping it all close to factory for this swap fits that bill.

KISS = "keep it simple stupid" approach  ;D I live by that code.  I would go to a pull it yard for the ECU, and if you are inclined and have a volt meter you could pull a harness to, be alot less then $$400...  but I am cheep.   oh and from me welcome aboard ;D
All things must start and end, the key is to not let them start and end in the same place.
