well is the d16 vtec a d16z6? if so thats an obd1 but i dont know to much about d15... if you can find out if its an obd1 then you should be fine it will plug right up with the exception of the vtec wiring...

the wiring that you'll need to do are the same 3 wires that were done in the mini-me swap thread:
