Default CRX with a ITR motor HELP

i just got my hands on a crx with a ITR motor converted to OBD-I with a p30 ecu with a bad b16a tranny cable. i want to switch it to hydro tranny ITR. Please leave suggestions with what i should do to make it work better, where to get the conversion kit, and anything else you wouldn't mind helping with. Also should i switch back to OBD-II? or chip the ecu? and the speedo dont work.... so i havent felt vtec yet.

Switch back to OBD-II? Hell no, if anything you should backdate the car to OBD-0, but there is no point doing that if it is already running fine with OBD-I.

The speedo doesn't work because they probably didn't change the VSS.

VSS? Speed sensor?

Yes, vehicle speed sensor. On pre 92 cars, there is a mechanical VSS, a direct gear that spins a cable that feeds the speedometer. On the 92+ cars, the gear is connected to an electical gizmo that converts it to an electical signal, converted at the cluster to show MPH. If the trans wasn't converted to an early style mechanical VSS during the swap, your speedo won't read properly.

trust me, dont fix that spedo for a while.for some reason it will let you just relax with the car and not freak out that your going to get a ticket.then hook it up later.that prolly didnt make much sense but for some one with as many points on there record as me that little bit of relief was friggin great, i know i could have gotten a ticket but you can alsways use the excuse that your spedo was going nutz that morning and then stoped working.that doesnt help you at all but hey do with what yah got.
